This works. I've done it on occasion for testing. However, because virtual PCs rarely operate on a real-time clock, mostly emulating these features, you will find that anything that read/writes to disk will suck badly. For example, it is nearly impossible to use the Voicemail features of Asterisk under Vmware, CoLinux or UserMode Linux. Believe me, I've tried! ;)
This is one of the main reasons that AstWind has stagnated. The timing granularity of the virtual machines is not acceptable for doing anything IO related. Just since I am curious, what version of VMWare did you use and what kind of box where you running on? I've just moved my * box to a VM on ESX server and didn't play with voicemail until you mentioned it - now Allison's voice cuts in and out. Sounds like I am going to have to go back to the box I was running on previously. My original box is a P3 500 desktop while my VMWare ESX box is a dual P3 1.4GHz HP Proliant server.
