-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 This release is intended for general distro inclusion, Testing has been performed on various linux distros, FreeBSD 10.1 and Solaris 11.2. This release contains a number of build fixes and also changes to deal with improved vmmouse port security and backoff if a vmmouse kernel module is encountered. An additional dependency on libudev is introduced

Port reservation is not required. Furthermore, this port is shared by other VMware services for host-side communication.

This port is used by quite a few guest-to-host communication capabilities, e.g. getting configuration, logging, etc. Currently multiple kernel modules, and one or more priviledged guest user mode app, e.g. open-vm-tools, use this port without reservation. It was determined that no reservation is required when accessing the port in this manner. Signed-off-by: Sinclair Yeh <syeh at
