You'd have to connect to the host machine running VMWare Workstation to be able to run multiple operating systems and access them all via VNC/SSH or RDP. That means running a GUI (be that Windows, a full desktop environment on Linux, or just an X server with VMWare running in it if you care to make the effort). With VMWare Server, you run it as a service, on a server machine, no GUI required, and you administer the service via a GUI (VMWare Server Console) on your client machine (Windows or Linux). It's VMWare... as a server. - Jeff -- linux.conf.au 2007: Sydney, Australia http://lca2007.linux.org.au/ I get my kicks above the .sigline, sunshine. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
