default port. Remember to use this port when connecting to this server.
Unable to find any instance of the super-server "inetd" or "xinetd". It is
possible that you do not have one of these packages installed on this machine.
Please install "inetd" or "xinetd".
If you do have "inetd" or "xinetd" installed, make sure that /etc/inetd.conf or

/usr/bin/vmware-config.pl after you fix the super-server.
