Or is RedHat to blame? I wouldn't put it past them; they like doing little things that they think are "better" that everyone else ignores. Wade. Q:Is it proper to eat cheeseburgers with your fingers?

Shortly after that VMWare decided to effectively abandon the product. EOL is September 2011. Since VMware Server in in Maintenance Mode... IOW not to be updated anymore. I'm not sure what I'm gonna use to replace it, as I don't wanna go redo things... deprecation is the only way. Edited by folkert Aug. 12, 2010, 09:38:42 PM EDT Expand All History
