that's what i missed. I misunderstood the directions. Now i know in the hostname to put :<port> in there. Let me reinstall vmware and try it again.

Are you specifying to connect to port 904 from the Windows client
(VMware Server Console, I assume)?  For example, if your server is at
IP 192.168.0.100, specify 192.168.0.100:904 in the server address box
(likewise, if you connect with a name, just put :904 after the name).
902 is the standard port.  However, 902 is allocated in /etc/services
already, so VMware bumps it up to 904.  If you want to change this,
edit /etc/services to comment out the two 902 lines, then rerun
vmware-config.pl and tell it to run on port 902.  Then you will not
need to specify the port explicitly.
