The good people at vmware are apparently n= ot interested in adding "official" freebsd support to esx. -----Original Message----- From: Terry Sposato Sent: Sunday, March 16, 2008 2:23 AM To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: VMWare Tools for FreeBSD Hi, =20 Is there any future development work being undertaken in order to port vmware-tools to FreeBSD. As our organisation using VMWare ESX Server and a lot of our servers are being virtualised to save hardware costs, this would let our FreeBSD server= s follow as well. =20 It does work find under Linux so I am 50% confident that it would port to FreeBSD if the work was done. Is it a licensing issue or another reason? No= t being a developer myself was just wondering if this has been tackled and if it is being incorporated somewhere in the future? =20 Regards, =20 Terry =20 _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org= "
