Wow, you had my hopes up there for a while when somebody asked where the jaws scripts were. I was hoping there was such a thing. Yeah, I have gotten vmware server2 for linux working and have a windows virtual machine running. But it was quite a struggle. The web interface is nearly inaccessible. I mean, you have to really be a detective to figure out where to click in order to use the interface. I got it figured out but I wouldn't want to have to go through that again. One of the things you can do is create a desktop icon to start your virtual machine so I just click on that now. If I ever want to take another snapshot or restore from a snapshot or add some hardware, I'm going to have to figure out the web interface again. Huge pain. Vmware ESX has a Windows program that does the same thing as the web interface for server2 and it's no better. I don't have Window-eyes so I cannot comment on that. But I tried the server2 web interface in Windows with jaws and nvda, in Mac OS with safari and voiceover, and in linux with orca. By far the best was Windows and jaws. Most people on this list are windows systems admins anyway. But if you're a linux guy, and you're trying to admin vmware server2, I'd advise you to connect to your linux machine from another machine running Windows. ou ----- Original Message ----- From: "rick watson" <rwatson@ogleveeltd.com> To: <ksawicki@avc.edu>; "'Blind sysadmins list'" <blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org> Sent: Tuesday, March 10, 2009 2:43 PM Subject: Re: [Blind-sysadmins] getting started with vmware server
Hi Ken, Unfortunately no vmware scripts on that site. And the vmware 2.0 server interface is in a web browser and nothing in it is a link or a button. Rick

Good morning listers,
Two questions.
1. What is the url for the jfw scripts for vmware server.
2. What is a good getting started guide for creating virtual machines.
Thanks
Rick
