Haven't tried this in a while, but here you go. I personally think trying to support vmware server is a waste of time and that if any effort is put into supporting virtualization on OF (which i think would be a boon in order to run a Windows domain controller), it should be toward an open-source virtualization solutions such as Xen.

Out of the box it goes like this: <---------> Before running VMware Server for the first time, you need to configure it by invoking the following command: "/usr/bin/vmware-config.pl". Do you want this program to invoke the command for you now? [yes] The correct version of one or more libraries needed to run VMware Server may be missing. This is the output of ldd /usr/bin/vmware: linux-gate.so.1 => (0xffffe000) libm.so.6 => /lib/tls/libm.so.6 (0xb7f45000) libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0xb7f42000) libpthread.so.0 => /lib/tls/libpthread.so.0 (0xb7f31000) libX11.so.6 => not found libXtst.so.6 => not found libXext.so.6 => not found libXt.so.6 => not found libICE.so.6 => not found libSM.so.6 => not found libXrender.so.1 => not found libz.so.1 => /usr/lib/libz.so.1 (0xb7f1e000) libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0xb7e04000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb7f6c000) This program cannot tell for sure, but you may need to upgrade libc5 to glibc before you can run VMware Server. Hit enter to continue. <-----------> Not to mention the vmmon module needs to be compiled, which i doubt is true, i suspect it's just that the vmware installer just doesn't understand the rpath system peculiarities. So when (if) I figure out how to get this stuff added without breaking OF updates, i'll post back. -=dave _______________________________________________ Openfiler-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openfiler.com/mailman/listinfo/openfiler-users ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Openfiler-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openfiler.com/mailman/listinfo/openfiler-users
