It is not server grade virtualization maybe, but it is excellent for desktop use (across platforms, the mac version works very well also). The newest version allows more than one CPU per instance, which is the last thing I would have used vmware for.
On an older server I would look more to xen or openvz... I personally like openvz, but they are both very good platforms. Jeremy _______________________________________________ mlug mailing list [email protected] https://listes.koumbit.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mlug-listserv.mlug.ca
