2002-11-23 Thread Oleg Goldshmidt
Hi everyone, Can anyone confirm or deny that VMWare Workstation 3.2 (or older) works with Win2k as host OS and RH8.0 as guest. A friend of mine is considering such a configuration but neither he nor I is sure that it works. The WMWare site lists RedHats up to and including 7.3, googling did not
