    Hi all,

    I want to use the vmxnet driver for a guest RedHat ES version 4 running
    under a Vmware ESX server. To be able to use the vmxnet driver; I have
    to install the vmware tools. The kernel sources are not available in Red
    Hat 4, so I have install gcc, get the kernel source, install the source
    rpm with

    up2date --install gcc
    up2date --get-source kernel
    up2date rpm-build
    rpm -ivh kernel-2.6.9-11.EL.src.rpm

    But when I execute ./vmware-config-tools.pl, I receive :

    What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your
    running
    kernel? [/usr/src/linux/include]

    Do we have to build the kernel to be able to install the vmxnet driver ?

    Any idea ?
    Thanks a lot for your help.
    Pierre.
