now!!

VMWare is a bit of a pain. We use xenserver at work, it is the dog's
danglies for what we need. I use VirtualBox on my work desktop tor testing
stuff though, its nice.

Well, assuming that we are not seriously going to blow up any
machines... I wonder how Research Machines managed to become nothing
more than Windows enforcers? When I was at school we had the classic

This is a genuine question to those currently / recently at Schoo/Uni.

I stopped using VMware a while back and have been using VirtualBox since
then, with many distros installed as virtual machines. It's great.
VirtualBox originally was not as good as VMware but it has improved so
much as to be a real mainstream product.
And it can work with vmware files too.

Um... why do you need to do anything with Firefox?
VMWare Server 2 uses a web-based admin panel. VNC inside the browser requires
a Firefox plugin, which works on i386 and amd64.

Hi there,
One of my servers has recently been attacked, it has one remote SSH user

However, someone managed to gain the password to that account on the server
