WMWare Server installation query

ms9cw · 9 May 2007 at 16:35

I'm installing VMware Server 1.03-44356 on my Windows Home Edition XP Centrino Duo laptop, using the Complete option. I'm getting a message saying that I don't have Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) installed, so I can't have the VMware Management Interface, which needs IIS.

Do I need the VMware Management Interface? Or do I need to install and configure IIS? :confused:

I hope that your not planning to use 64bit linux on that... I dont think that it supports 64bit...

Oh well, if it doesn't work I can always go back to the Console clients. I don't think it'll do any harm to try.

I've got a laptop with the same spec. I run WinSMP on it and I manage to get around 800 PPD, even on the slow WUs.

I didn't get very far with the VWware server anyway, so I'll try your suggestion and give WinSMP a try.

EDIT: WinSMP is up and running on my laptop. Only 4 day deadline! :eek:

If I don't make the deadlines, I'll go back to the standard clients.

Thanks for the help, guys!
