I have an asterisk 1.6.2 server running on Debian Lenny on ESX which
bridges ENUM SIP and Skype Calls with our Cisco PBX (connected via SIP).
I have not heard of any problems so far regarding timing. Voice is
always clear and fine.

Others have already pointed out that in VMware, you won't get direct
access to the hardware. VMWare does have some limited capability to
directly interface with hardware, but I agree with everybody else that
it is likely not going to work.
The second problem with VMWare in a virtual machine is timing. On a
physical machine, Asterisk and Linux have almost complete control over
the timing. That's important for voice data streams that need to send
data at precise points in time. In a virtual machine, I would expect
poorer sound quality due to dropouts.

*Subject:* [asterisk-users] asterisk on Vmware
Hello,
Is it possible to install Asterisk on Vmware(centos) from source. Is
there any difference or disadvantage for this compared to asterisk
running on physical machine.
