Can you clarify this a bit?
There is no special management instance. VMWare Server is an application that
runs on a regular host operating system instance (it installs linux kernel
modules though, and probably also Windows drivers).
Interesting. This used to be called "VMWare Workstation".
Rainer's right - there's Vmware Server and Workstation (and others, eg
the GSX product range.) I've used Server 1 and workstation on several
machines and several operating systems for four years. My annoyance was
the configuration of Server 2. Server 1 came with a separate application
(VMware console) that you could use to connect to both local and remote
clients. Server 2 has replaced this with a web ui.
"They" (meaning this user
on the VMWare community, who might or might not be associated with VMWare)
say not to run server software on that host operating system. I take that as
a recommendation to dedicate a machine to one purpose only (VM hosting in
that case), which is common practice in many production environments, but no
strict requirement.
Yes, I accept I was a little frustrated at the time - my sentence was
not intended to imply that Vmware had made the above statement, but more
that I couldn't find any answer to the problem on their site.
Okay, this makes sense (not the recommendation, just the explanation).
What do you mean with "the other end"? I use VMWare Server 2 on Ubuntu
(original tar.gz install from vmware.com), also found that it blocks the said
ports, and simply changed the server.xml of the VMWare Tomcat.
And how did the client find it? If I missed how to do it, I apologize
for wasting everybody's time but there is no mention in the docs, I
could find nothing on Google and my experiments indicated that you need
to change both client and server and I could only find the server
configuration.
He still wants the web manager to work, and the /client/ expects to
connect on a certain port. If you change VMWare's server-side ports, the
client can no longer connect.
Correct. I still don't understand why Vmware didn't make this configurable.
