I don't know what "this box" means. :-) The point is....vmware-tools-any-update1 is used for the "guest" OS. I think you are saying that your guest OS is FC4 and vmware-tools is installed and running just fine. If that is the case, then you are OK and are missing nothing. FWIW, in my case my "host" OS is RHELv4 and I don't need vmware-any-any-update99...but my "guest" OS is FC5 and for that I need the vmware-tools-any-update1. Another axiom to recall, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it". :-) -- My pony-tail hit the on/off switch on the power strip.
