Doesnt look like it. It asks me to accept the certificate and then throws me to

That is what I ecountered as well. GSX3.1 use ssl by default. I will try http only.

It works now with fresh install on the test server.
the only difference from how-to is minimal set of rpms, no full X-windows, just x-libs and gcc with kernel headers. to start it automatically had to create http.vmware link in rc7.d
now trying to make DVD-CDRW combo drive work with Virtual Machines

GSX server 3.1 runs just fine on my SME 6.01 with devtools installed.
After installing the virtual console mui, i can access the virtual console using my browser. However when i reboot the SME box, i can't access the virutal console anymore. Is there a sullution for this problem?

Boris has the sollution:
After putting httpd.vmware link in rc.7 everything works just fine

Where to find the howto you are talking about?

[duncan]

I am not aware of a howto for GSX server (although Guenter claims to have done one - and won’t share)

If you follow the install method from the vmware site it isn’t that difficult.

Hi Guenter,
Have you decided if your going to post your VMware how-to?

Thanks,
