HowTo: VMware Server 2 on ReadyNAS 4.2.11
Hi, based on the guides from jdw99 and chirpa (viewtopic.php?p=155733#p155733 and viewtopic.php?f=35&t=26468) I completed a step-by-step guide to get VMware Server up and running on my NAS. This Ho...
Update: Windows 2003R2 is working well on the readynas. Copy files to/from it isn't very fast, but it's working fine as DC/DHCP/DNS server.
Also had a problem with vmware server not working after a reboot. After starting /etc/init.d/vmware manually it gave the error:
Did run vmware-config.pl, but after a reboot, the problem was back.
If something goes wrong with the init script /etc/init.d/vmware(and that seems to be the case every time I reboot), the script creates a file in /etc/vmware named "not_configured"
Next time you reboot Vmware doesn't start because this file is there.
"Solved it" by editing the init script /etc/init.d/vmware, so that it doesn't create that file(commented out the part under " # Set the 'not configured' flag" ).
Also had a problem with vmware server not working after a reboot. After starting /etc/init.d/vmware manually it gave the error:
VMware Server is installed, but it has not been (correctly) configured for your running kernel. To (re-)configure it, your system administrator must find and run "vmware-config.pl". For more information, please see the VMware Server documentation.
