Hi guys, I was wondering if it is possible to install vmware using vista as host OS and then installing windows server and serveral xp on the vmware. will it be possible to run such tasks as creating a domain on that virtual windows server and then joining the xp virtual workstations to the domain, and also setting permissions to the various xp virtual stations

I can't see why not, I've done it in Virtual PC so I'd say VMware can do it (and probably better too).

I've been interested in using vmware but since it costs money I avoid it and use Virtual PC, as I can't justify spending money on something I only use now and again to mess around with. Perhaps if my job required me to use a VM I'd consider getting something better like vmware, but till then it's Virtual PC for me :p

Yep.

We did that in college - our teacher had us install one primary domain controller and one backup domain controller on the same machine, which communicated with a workstation on a 2nd machine (of course, in vmware).

When you can get proper drivers to load in a VM, which you can't because it's emulated hardware for compatibility reasons...

Do you know if it is possible to create a virtual pc on my machine and run it from another machine through LAN?

Umm if you're going to suggest Workstation, VMWare Server is also free, linky above. I prefer Virtualbox to VMWare. I find Virtualbox to be the fastest.

i don't think it is possible with VMware 6

cause it support Direct X 8

you need DirectX 9 support to get aero & and a proper driver off course
