I don't know. My guess is that it only works this way with the pay-for ESX server product. However, the free "VMware Server" product used to be the pay-for GSX server, so I wouldn't be surprised if the free version does it too. YMMV. -Bryan /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
