Yes, however, VMware doesn't offer licenses for VMware 3 anymore. So if you= =20 don't already have a VMware 3 box lying around somewhere, this port probabl= y=20 isn't of much use to you. There are no ports for more recent versions of VMware because the FreeBSD=20 linux binary compatibility cannot run them properly. =2D-=20 ,_, | Michael Nottebrock | lofi@freebsd.org (/^ ^\) | FreeBSD - The Power to Serve | http://www.freebsd.org \u/ | K Desktop Environment on FreeBSD | http://freebsd.kde.org --nextPart5607771.iOss6OU0rS Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBCf3o4Xhc68WspdLARAh6RAJ9RE4asLB2+fOeFXlR8/tDnlPZpnACcCdfD OHTS5jEoJY27Ocx5ruBbCfs= =u9W4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart5607771.iOss6OU0rS--
