I have to following qwuestions. 1. vmware asks me for a license of the version and tell me to place it in .vmware directory with a filename license, Where Can I get that lincese? If I type www.vmweare.com/license_linux I go to a vmware store and I want to use the free license if possible. 2. I want to emulate Windows XP, where do i have to place the instalation files? 3. What are the init files of vmware? where can i place configuration variables? 4. where can i get information about vmware on linux?, vmware.com just looks like a comercial site, very far from opensource philosophy. however, vmware is such a big usefull system. regards, --- Fabio Andres Miranda Ingenieria de sistemas informaticos Universidad Latina - Costa Rica
