off topic yet useful

[Dave J. Andruczyk]

For those of you who don't have enough machinesto do netmon traces, you
might want to consider using "VMware" to run windoze NT/98/95 under linux,
to "save a machine".  I have been able to very successfully get win95
installed under vmware, and have it logon to a samba domain, with full
roving profiles.  

vmware supports running NTserver on the virtual machine, so it might be
usefull to those developers who don't have a handy machine.  vmware though
is a bit of a resource hog, but performs quite well if you have at least a
PII with 64 megs or more...

Sorry for being so off topic.  but this may be of an aid to developers..
its at www.vmware.com, and is in beta test..
