OpenBSD as host for VMWare Server

2008-06-26 Thread Christophe Rioux
Hello,

I googled many hours to find out that some people did the following
configuration:

* OpenBSD as Host (last version if possible)
* VMWare server installed (VMWare server 1.0.4 - 1.0.6 if possible)
- Linux Virtual Server
- Windows Virtuel Server

But I didn't find any recent document on this. Did somebody do the
configuration or know, where I can find some documentation to implement this
solution ?

Thanks for your feedback
Regards

And, I think you already see this[1]... Right?

I think to OP was asking how to run VMs on VMWare Server running
OpenBSD.  The linked article describes running OpenBSD as a VM, not
hosting VMs...

Too fast on the send key.  Also meant to add that I don't think it
works.  But qemu in ports does.

Yeah, you're going to have to stick with qemu; VMware is Windows/Linux/Mac
only. I vaguely seem to recall some chatter about getting xen working with
an OpenBSD dom0, but I don't think that was ever completed. But if someone
has heard differently, then please enlighten us!
