AFAIK, VMWare does not support FreeBSD as a host (YES as a guest)
in their
latest versions of the Workstation line. I havent heard of host as
for the
Server line, but I could be wrong.
Does it run under Linux emulation?

As far as I'm aware, VMWare only supports FreeBSD as a Guest OS, not as a Host
OS. i.e. you can't run VMWare itself on FreeBSD, but you can run FreeBSD

Thank you for your answer!
I will have a look a qemu. But I don't think it is as professional as I need
it.
Actually I'm working witn xp and windows vmware. I use it for testing
unattended installation CDs, service packs etc..., new windows netware
client testing, software testing etc
I'd like to use FreeBSD inside VMWare on my desktop. I've used VMWare
