1、在VMWare选VM -> Install VMWare Tools…，就会在桌面出现VMWare Tools图示让你安裝
2、进入CentOS桌面后，将光盘打开，看到了VMWareTools-6.0.2.59824.tar.gz。
3、将VMWareTools-6.0.2.59824.tar.gz复制到/home，进行解压缩。
#cp VMWareTools-6.0.2.59824.tar.gz /home
# tar -zxvf VMwareTools-6.0.2-59824.tar.gz
4、进入解压缩后的vmware-tools-distrib目录
# cd vmware-tools-distrib/
执行vmware-install.pl安裝VMWare Tools
[root@localhost vmware-tools-distrib]# ./vmware-install.pl
之后出现很多问题，都接受预设值一直按enter即可，唯一问到分辨率问题，若你想使用其他分辨率，请自行设定如下：
Please choose one of the following display sizes that X will start with (1 -
15):
[1] ”640×480″

[4] ”1152×864″
[5] ”1280×800″

最后出现以下信息，表示安裝成功。

You can now run VMware Tools by invoking the following command:
“/usr/bin/vmware-toolbox” during an X server session.
To use the vmxnet driver, restart networking using the following commands:
/etc/init.d/network stop
rmmod pcnet32
rmmod vmxnet
modprobe vmxnet
/etc/init.d/network start
To make use of the virtual printer, you will need to restart the CUPS service
