Despite the info given on their web page 'www.vmware.com/support/technotesfreebsd.html' it _is_ possible to use the VMware Linux X- Server and Vmware Toolbox for Linux (both build-282) with FreeBSD. I have FreeBSD 3.2 RELEASE installed as guest OS under the host OS Win NT 4 and after the installation of the Linux library package the VMware Linux X-Server works without problems here (as far as I can tell). Therefore I assume that the combination FreeBSD as guest and Linux as host OS should work as well. Of course it would be even nicer if VMware would support FreeBSD as host OS. >>>"Dongre, Prashant" wrote: >>> Has anyone tried running vmware under FreeBSD/Linux emulation. -- Manfred Usselmann usselmann.m@icg-online.de -------------------------------------------------- I C G Informationstechnologie Consulting GmbH Bahnstr. 7, D-65835 Liederbach / Ts.
