VMWare Server 2.0.x , can’t add the 3rd user for vm permission settings

find a bug in VMWare Server 2.0.2, cannot add the 3rd user or more for permission assignment  after adding the 2nd user and the below error is prompted:vmservererror

Check the file /etc/vmware/hostd/authorization.xml :

<ConfigRoot>
     <ACEData id="10">
         <ACEDataEntity>32</ACEDataEntity>
         <ACEDataId>10</ACEDataId>
         <ACEDataIsGroup>false</ACEDataIsGroup>
         <ACEDataPropagate>true</ACEDataPropagate>
         <ACEDataRoleId>-1</ACEDataRoleId>
         <ACEDataUser>sfluk</ACEDataUser>
     </ACEData>
     <ACEData id="11">
         <ACEDataEntity>ha-folder-root</ACEDataEntity>
         <ACEDataId>11</ACEDataId>
         <ACEDataIsGroup>false</ACEDataIsGroup>
         <ACEDataPropagate>true</ACEDataPropagate>
         <ACEDataRoleId>-1</ACEDataRoleId>
         <ACEDataUser>root</ACEDataUser>
      </ACEData>
      <NextAceId>11</NextAceId>
</ConfigRoot>

It seems that the problem is the entry <NextAceId>11</NextAceId>, I changed it to <NextAceId>12</NextAceId> and the problem is fixed…
