Hi to all. I have been toying with an idea, and I would like to know if anyone has actually done this. I would like to set up a virtual learning network. Specifically, by use of a virtual machine system such as VMWare, I would like to be able to set up various types of machines such as workstations, Samba servers, domain controllers, and maybe even a 2-to-4 node Beowulf cluster. If I want to add machines to a domain, I just replicate an image, load the machine and add it. I could replicate a baseline server, install Apache and plug it into the “network”. The point is simply to be able to study the different systems and their interconnection in a not-quite-live environment. Naturally, this would require a fairly competent workstation, but I think mine might be sufficient.
Has any ever done something like this? I would appreciate any comments regarding feasibility and how much such a system could be made to resemble the real world. Thanks—
Andrew Hunter
