Re: [OT] Debian + Virtualization > Sharing Experiences



Hi

I installed VMWare Server (HowtoForge for info) on Debian 5. I run the
following environments on it:
Debian 4
Debian 5
Windows XP
Windows Vista
Windows 7
Windows 2000 Server
Windows 2003 Server
Windows 2008 Server
All images transfered from a Workstation Environment.

A little slow to start but once running, they are a dream.

Regards
Nick

Hello,

Maybe this isn't OffTopic, but I added [OT] tag just in case.

I am in charge of installing 5 VMs - Linux[2] + FreeBSD + Windows +
PFSense.
I figured it would be better to have ESXi installed, but the server machine
is not compatible with it.
That said, I am searching for the best way to implement this without using
ESXi.

I am not really experienced when it comes to virtualization, so I know I
could learn a lot from your advices.

What would YOU do?

Obviously, I will run Debian "under the hood", but what would you run on
top of it to support 5 VMs?

Thank you for your time.
