Title: VMWare Howto
Post by: robert11 on November 10, 2006, 11:33:47 AM

We have just published a modified Howto for VMWare SME 7 Guest on a Centos 4.3 host.
We ran into problems with time drift.
It was essential that the time was accurate on this guest machine.

I've considered on many occasions to try running multiple instances of SME in a vmserver environment.  Do you mind sharing your design/concept for this deployment?

Thanks.
