Hi Josh,

Many thanks for your time and efforts, and sorry if this is not qualified a=
s a
bug. I've just tried to compile and use the latest open-vm-tools from
https://people.freebsd.org/~jpaetzel/open-vm-tools.tar.gz.

It compiles fine, and I can start vmware-guestd, which results in proper
detection of Guest OS (FreeBSD 11.1-BETA3) in vSphere Client, however start=
ing
vmware-kmod throws:

KLD vmmemctl.ko: depends on kernel - not available or version mismatch
linker_load_file: Unsupported file type
KLD vmxnet.ko: depends on kernel - not available or version mismatch
linker_load_file: Unsupported file type
KLD vmblock.ko: depends on kernel - not available or version mismatch
linker_load_file: Unsupported file type

Below are some details about my setup:

FreeBSD CLONE-VM-SRV01 11.1-BETA3 FreeBSD 11.1-BETA3 #0 r320264: Sun Jun 25

serbskir@CLONE-VM-SRV01:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/BSD112017062501VM  amd64

open-vm-tools was compiled with:
