I have set them up previously and they offer significant convenience. For example, file sharing is really nice. With the DSL I have had to set up an FTP server and use that to get files in and out. It works, but drag and drop are sure easier.

I have a number of Linux instances running in Parallels (Server) without using P Tools at all. However, I do remember trying to install P Tools on other Distros, and finding it a major pain, and since I never found a compelling reason to need it, I just decided to forget about it. Thanks, Chris Thanks. Looks like there is a lot more information out there now than when I was first working on this more than a year ago. I have working code, I just need to get it working on a 2.4 kernel. Thanks to Mike's suggestion, I've got Damn Small Linux up in a VM and it's got a 2.4.31 kernel. It has been a real pain to work with so far though. My VM is Parallels and getting the P Tools to build on DSL has so far eluded me.
