My EULA says: 3.4 VMware Tools. You may distribute the VMware Tools to any third party provided that (i) you only distribute the VMware Tools as a whole in object code format whether or not as part of, the Virtual Machine you create with the Software; (ii) you do not use VMware's name, logo or trademarks to market the VMware Tools, except you may refer to VMware names, logos or trademarks to indicate that the VMware Tools are compatible with or designed for use with the Software and (iii) you agree to indemnify, hold harmless, and defend VMware from and against any claims or lawsuits, including attorneys' fees, that arise or result from your use or distribution of VMware Tools. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may distribute and modify the Open Source Software of VMware Tools; however, VMware may not provide any support, pursuant to Section 5, for such modified VMware Tools. Assuming you aren't in a US export restricted country (Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan, and Syria) I should be able to give you a legal copy. This is the ISO that ships with Workstation 7.1.1 build-282343. It has kernel modules for 8.0 i386 & amd64. http://www.predatorlabs.net/dl/vmware-tools-freebsd-711.iso -- Rob Farmer
