I'll dig into a bit and see if I find the exact problem/resolution, but I
think it had something to do with the archive not finding the proper path
to perl and not liking the /usr/bin/perl I linked to it.

I know that's pretty vague but I'm cloning a production server right now
(rsync is now my friend), and I'll have to get back into a bit to find out
exactly what I did.

vmware 2.x was a lot easier (it ran out of the box from ports) but by the
time I installed it, the vmware folks were only supplying license keys
(trial) for v 3.0.  Does anyone know of a source for the 2.x licenses
anymore?
