Old thread... but the solution was simple:  Uncheck the box which
makes the VM private, then move it, chown it, whatever, then turn it
on, presto... only then mark it private again if that's an extra bit
of security you desire.  :)

Hi folks.  I seem to have run into a problem this weekend switching
which user owned my VMs.  User1 was the previous owner.  I shut the
VMs down, then I used the Vmware Server Console (VSC) to unregister
them (so I thought).  I created user2, then chown'd the VMs to user2,
went into the VSC as user2 and was able to open and start the VMs.

However, then I went and deleted user1, closed the VSC and reopend and
was no longer allowed to access those VMs.  I wonder if this has only
some, none or all to do with the making the VM private option... if
so, how to adjust for that so I can switch owners AND keep the VMs
private under the new owner?

thanks,
