poldas, try it:
Step 1: # pkg install xe-guest-utilities
Step 2: Enable it to start on boot.
echo "xenguest_enable="YES"" >> /etc/rc.conf.local
ln -s /usr/local/etc/rc.d/xenguest /usr/local/etc/rc.d/xenguest.sh
Step 3: Start
service xenguest start
The service will start automatically when you next reboot
it works for v2.2 on 6.5 XSp.s.
your VM must be connected to inet -
Hello net1c, in pfsense 2.3 I receive the following error "no packages available to install matching xe-guest-utilities". How can I install xenserver-tools on pfsense 2.3? Thank you

I don't know what happened to you, but I can verify that it worked with 2.3.2-RELEASE.
