It greatly depends on what you need. E.g. if you want to stage new Linux versions and/or Linux kernels, you require VMWare/QEmu (if you don't have VT/SVN-enabled hardware) or VMWare/Xen/KVM (if you have VT/SVN-enabled hardware) If you just to create "jails" for certain applications, OpenVZ/VServer are much better suited. - Gilboa ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
