FWIW, i think the idea is that you should always have some license...  at
least an eval license...  before running/configuring the product.  after
finding this old article,

http://soupnazi.org/freebsdzine/200102/vmware2.php

i now recall the procedure from the 2.0 days...  i had to download an eval
license from vmware's website, then i could proceed.  the problem now, of
course, is that we can no longer request 3.0 eval licenses.

thankfully, the problem has been worked around.
