I will have to give that a try thanks for the heads up modd.
If any of you guys are gonna install SP2 or get an RAE error, here is the fix for it:

No prob TWB. BTW, if I press Alt+CTRL+DEL in the vmware, is that how I can tell how much ram it is using?? Or are you guys using a different method to find out how much ram its using. Currently I have 3vm's goin on this comp, 1 is using 72.2mb, 1 is using 71mb, and the other is at 68mb. I think that might be the page file usage though.Originally Posted by thewildblue
ctrl-shift-esc launches the task manager.
Thanks heelheim, but thats not what I really mean. Can I tell how much ram a vm is using by using the task manager under performance? Or should I add up how much ram each service is using under processes?
YOu have to go by processes. If you only look at the task mgr, you will be getting Virtual Ram usuage as well.
So just add up the mem usage of all the services?
incase anyone is wondering, i uploaded 5.5 vmware workstation for you guys, grab it before its gone. mainly for anyone on the dimes team that wants to install but wants free longer than the trial, its zipped so what you need is in the folder.

Thanks thewildblue !
Got me going in the right direction
Thanks Jeff! I see you're still adding more
Bring it dont sing it
I hope it's a Dual opty 265 this time with 4GB!
hmm i got 7 VM's running ..
settings are everywhere the same .. but just one VM is able to go online ..
on the others, Dimes says, that UDP/ICMP are blocked o.O
any ideas ??

Did you leave it a while?
I find it's not unusual for dimes to say it's not able to connect when it first starts up. After a while that will normally straighten itself out though. As for UDP/ICMP blocking - all of my linux clients say they are blocked too but they manage to rack up the points anyway
If you've managed to get one VM connecting to the internet ok then the rest probably also have access and you're just experiencing the above. If I ever need to ensure I have a connection to the net in a VM I use firefox - don't rely on dimes for that
tried with Firefox .. and it runs ..
IE was not able to get atleast google ...

Do you think a smoothwall setup will give me more thruput over this hardware?
D-Link DGL-4100 10/100/1000Mbps GamerLounge Broadband Gigabit Gaming Router
with 1 x 10/100Mbps WAN Port and 4 x 10/100/1000Mbps LAN Ports
NETGEAR GS608 10/100/1000Mbps Switch 8 X RJ-45 Ports 4K MAC Address Table 1MB Buffer memory
All computers have 1000Mbps NICs ...
TIA!
Not sure to be honest, but if you have a decent rig its bound to be more powerful than a dlink router. Cant hurt to try.
I was wondering if there's a specific advantage to using VMware rather than a completely free alternative like Microsoft's Virtual Server 2005.
As far as Im aware the microsoft virtual server isnt free. Vmware as far as I was aware was the industry standard and the best.
You can also use VMPlayer along with VMX Wizard which are both free!

Virtual PC 2004 isn't free, Virtual Server 2005 is free. The only catch is it requires IIS to run.Originally Posted by thewildblue
