Silyaev" To: emulation@freebsd.org Subject: New vmware port: testers required Message-ID: <20000616084248.A3531@jupiter.delta.ny.us> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0i Sender: owner-freebsd-emulation@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Hi, I did some preliminary support for _FreeBSD_ bridging in the vmware vmnet module. So I want assistance to test that code. If it'll be work pretty well it'll be substitution for the VMWARE bridge networking. So just grab port file from the next url and install it. http://www.mindspring.com/~vsilyaev/vmware/files/vmware.tar.gz To be able to load vmnet with bridging support you _must_ to have a kernel compiled with BRIDGE options (see LINT for the details). This is port based on latest vmware beta, but if you are want you still can use vmware 2.0 release, just for new port do not start 'make install' command, but instead just reload the vmnet module to new one. -- With best regards, Vladimir P.S. Thanks for taking support on the FreeBSD vmware port, when I was gone. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-emulation" in the body of the message
