Re: z/VM and VMware
Last time I looked they did not support OS/2. Have you tried getting a new release of OS/2 for the new hardware? Bernd Oppolzer wrote: by the way: does anybody know, if it is possible to run OS/2 with VMWare? Is anybody doing this? I have some OS/2 "legacy" applications, but OS/2 doesn't run on new hardware, so I have to keep my old boxes. But if OS/2 would run with VMWare, I could run it without problems on brand new hardware. Kind regards Bernd Am Sam, 20 Sep 2003 schrieben Sie: Actually, this is not entirely correct either, but it does point at a fairly big limitation in VMWare (and x86 capability for being virtualized)... VMWare actually can run more OSes (and versions of OSes) than those 'supported' by VMWare. E.g. I had Plan9 running (in text mode, due to not having the specs for the video card VMWare emulates) on VMWare years ago, and now Bell Labs has is running with GUI. But it is not at all supported by VMWare, and VMWare does not contain any code that is customized to make it possible.
Re: z/VM and VMware
I've been running it under Linux for about 4 years now. I started using VMWare when you could get a hobby license. I run Windows NT on my Linux lap top and run 3 different levels and distribution of linux under linux on my desk top along with Windows NT. It all works great. If I had a 390 system I would be playing with that also. Dave Rich Smrcina wrote: I've actually just started using VMWare. It is pretty cool, I have 2 W2K machines (one is a template) and a W98 machine. I've been successful at cloning the W2K machine and I want to also be able to clone the W98 machine. I just have to copy the virtual file system and edit a couple of configuration files. It supports NAT so the virtual machines have their own subnet. The Windows virtual machines can access the host (Linux) systems filesystem through Samba. All of the administration is with a GUI, so there is no hcp stuff to speak of. You can add and remove devices that the machines can use, though. For instance, if I don't need the CD I just disconnect it since evidently Windows will check for a CD every second in order to be able to automatically run it. My laptop doesn't have a floppy, so none of the virtual machines have a floppy drive. But, I can create a floppy image and connect a virtual machine to it.

The move to comply to the LSB has resulted in the changes to where config files etc. live. You are right in that services like ftp etc. are not enabled by default. I'd recommend using chkconfig -l to check what is and use chkconfig on to turn on those you are interested in. We have also received a new k_deflt that has proved very stable.

Re: RH on MP3000
Because the MP3000 is passing the data through OS/2 you have to use 1492 as the MTU. OS/2 appends 8 bytes to the packet for some reason.
