I created a VM using VMWare workstation 5.5.4.

The VM was built using the latest release of Ubuntu 7.10, and i  
installed  
LAMP during the install process. The problem i’m running into is  
installing  
the VM Ware tools. Any suggestions?

thanks,  
Jason

Yep, I suggest posting this to a vmware forum. I fail to see the rails  
relevance here?
