If you edit the virtual machine settings (via the Vmware console menus) I would think that it will rewrite the .vmx file. There's certainly no harm trying, you can change a fairly innocuous setting
If there was something I could do within the VM which would cause a write to the .vmx that might work, though. Any suggestions?
The VM is running SME (www.contribs.org) which is a modified CentOS 4. I have access to it via SSH only.
Is VMWare just a user-space program? If so, does it respond to any of the signals you'll find in your $ kill -l
Obviously, don't send KILL or TERM to it.
I don't really know anything about this, I just wanted a break from despairing at how thick undergraduates can be. Uh oh, did I think that or type it? Is this thing being archived?
