So connect to the host then create your VM the host is ubuntuOriginally Posted by tmastran

tmastran - VMServer requires that you 'connect' to the Server management console. You can choose to connect to 'localhost' using your normal username and password.

Thanks! And thanks to the author for a great tutorial.
Thanks for the guide, worked out great.
Wow.. its running as windows would normally! I was expecting lags and slowdowns, but it runs like a dream!
Anyone tested Games through this?
I've used both a Visioneer XP100 scanner and a Fujitsu Scansnap with vmware and they both worked ok. My experience is that vmware worked great except for having to shut down printing from linux in order to print from vmware.Originally Posted by Peturrr
Win4lin works fine for printing from both linux and windows at the same time but does not work with the usb scanners. It is also a bit slower than vmware. But both get the job done for me.
Problem : could not open/dev/vmnet8:no such file or directory,vitual device ethernet0 will start disconnected
This is what I get when i start xp in VM Ubuntu Dapper, I also installed windows Me and get the same error .
Newbie in over head please throw rope. And Thank You in advance Frozen.

Awsome!
I have dual monitors and the left monitor has XP running nearly full screen (full screen blocks out the ability to move the mouse to this screen)
If there is a way to run it at full screen on one monitor while still allowing me to move my mouse to the other, please let me know, otherwise this is still really awsome!
Also, I accepted all defaults. When I tried to add it to /home/oneseventeen/vmware it said "vmware" could not be found...
So going with the defaults makes things insanely easy.
EDIT: I can't seem to get USB devices to show up... is there any way to share files between the VM and Ubuntu?

I cleaned up the files from the first failed attempt to install vmware-server, started again, and everything went fine until this. I am new enough at Linux (Ubuntu) to not understand what is needed. /tmp/vmware-config0 exisits with /vmnet-only in it, and if the 'includeCheck.h' should be there - it isn't. So, how would it be created and is there anything I can/should do?
Sure would like to get this running.

There is probably a slight difference in the kernel configuration between the
set of C header files you specified and your running kernel. You may want to
rebuild a kernel based on that directory, or specify another directory.
