FWIW I've switched from MS Virtual Server to Sun VirtualBox. VirtualBox is simple to use and a lot more stable than the MS product. I've run it under Linux (Ubuntu 8.10 and 9.04) and Windows XP Pro and found it lets me run Windows Server 2000 continually for months without requiring reboot. However, I do have one issue with VirtualBox, which is that I have to keep the user account on the host machine logged in. There are allegedly two ways around this: - Use srvany if running under Windows - Run the virtual machines in "headless mode" Unfortunately, I've not got either method to work for me. -- Geoff Lane Cornwall, UK -- Using The Bat! v1.62r on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 3 ________________________________________________ Current version is 4.2.9.1 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
