ACS 4.1 Templates
Are there upgraded system VM templates for ACS 4.1? If so are they available for download? -- Thanks, JC
Re: ACS 4.1 Templates
Joe, Disregard, I read your email wrong. 4.1 uses 4.0 VM templates, in 4.2 things with change.

[DOC] Opening vncextras firewall ports in ESXi 5.1
I have some documentation on how to accomplish this task and would like to contribute it to the ACS documentation for CS 4.1. I am going through the following link below, trying to comprehend how to accomplish this. I have downloaded the source for 4.1, compiled to documentation with publican, and see what section the information needs to added to. https://cwiki.apache.org/CLOUDSTACK/cloudstack-documentation-contributors-overview.html I do not have a developer background what so every so please have patience with my questions. Should create a new xml doc or do I edit and existing xml doc? Is there a easier way for someone to contribute with having a Sys Admin background? -- Thanks, JC
Re: [DOC] Opening vncextras firewall ports in ESXi 5.1

Re: [DOC] Opening vncextras firewall ports in ESXi 5.1
