Virtualization for security
Scott Granneman, 2006-04-12

Sometimes we don't really see what our eyes are viewing. That's true with your computer screen, and it's true in nature as well. Oh sure, we can say what we think we're seeing, but we're missing the big story such as the man behind the curtain, to recall a famous phrase from an even more beloved movie.

The newly made FREE (as in beer) VMware Server is also a good way to build virtual machines to be run later in VMware Player.

For that matter, VMware server (now at beta 2, but quite usable in production with some careful monitoring) is also perfectly usable as a poor man's substitute for VMware Workstation, as long as you can forego the multiple snapshots and other recently added features of Workstation 5.x.

On a total of 3 sites and 5 physical hosts, I presently run a total of 8 single-function servers (5 Windows 2000, 3 Linux) and one "browsing machine" Windows 2000 desktop with VMware Server beta 2. And I'm just getting started...
