Herunterladen von Vmware Server 2.0.1 unter http://www.vmware.com/download/server/

Die Lizenznummer erhält man nach einem ausführlichen Registrationsprozedere.

Die MD5-Summe des heruntergeladenen Pakets "VMware-server-2.0.1-156745.i386.tar.gz" lautet:

be96bc1696f4cef67755bfd2553ce233

Nun müssen zuerst die für die Installation von Vmware Server benötigten Pakete "linux-headers-$(uname -r)", "build-essential" und "xinetd" unter Ubuntu heruntergeladen und installiert werden.

$ sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) build-essential xinetd

Danach folgt die eigentliche Installation von Vmware Server.

$ tar xzf VMware-server-2.0.1-156745.i386.tar.gz
$ cd vmware-server-distrib
$ sudo ./vmware-install.pl
The following VMware kernel modules have been found on your system that were 
not installed by the VMware Installer.  Please remove them then run this 
installer again.

vmnet
vmmon

I.e. - 'rm /lib/modules/2.6.24-23-generic/misc/<ModuleName>.{o,ko}'

Execution aborted.
$ sudo rm /lib/modules/2.6.24-23-generic/misc/{vmnet,vmmon}.{o,ko}
$ sudo ./vmware-install.pl
A previous installation of VMware Server has been detected.

The previous installation was made by the tar installer (version 3).

Keeping the tar3 installer database format.

You have a previous version of VMware Server installed.  Continuing this 
install will upgrade to the latest version by first uninstalling the previous 
version.  Do you wish to continue? (yes/no) [yes]

The installation of VMware Server 2.0.1 build-156745 for Linux completed 
successfully. You can decide to remove this software from your system at any 
time by invoking the following command: "/usr/bin/vmware-uninstall.pl".

Before running VMware Server for the first time, you need to configure it by 
invoking the following command: "/usr/bin/vmware-config.pl". Do you want this 
program to invoke the command for you now? [yes]

None of the pre-built vmmon modules for VMware Server is suitable for your 
running kernel.  Do you want this program to try to build the vmmon module for 
your system (you need to have a C compiler installed on your system)? [yes]

Vmware Server 2 hat keine grafische Benutzeroberfläche, um virtuelle Maschinen zu verwalten - das wird nun über den Webbrowser gemacht. Der Aufruf erfolgt über einen der folgenden URLs:

https://localhost:8333
oder
http://localhost:8222

Auf die Verwaltungsoberfläche kann lokal oder auch über das Rechnernetz zugegriffen werden.
