For those of you who don't like high licence fees and usage restrictions, the Xen virtual machine monitor is GPL software and can run Linux or FreeBSD guest operating systems. It features direct PCI device access and full hardware emulation at near native speeds. There are rumors that it'll run Windows as a guest in future versions. -- Lee Azzarello Network Engineer Progressive Solutions +1 212 937 8939 -- [email protected] mailing list
