How to install VMware Server 2.0 Beta in Ubuntu 7.10 “Gutsy Gibbon”
1. Download VMware Server 2.0 Beta available from the VMware website. Write down the serial number it generates for you at registration.
（下載 VMware Server 2.0 Beta，並且把序號存檔）
2. Unpack this archive to a location on your machine (perhaps /tmp).
（解壓縮 vmware server 2.0 beta）
3. Before you configure and compile VMware Server we need to disable ipv6 support in Ubuntu as it is not currently compatible.
（關閉 IPv6 協定）
4. sudo aptitude install build-essential xinetd
（安裝 build-essential 及 xinetd 兩個套件）
5. cd /tmp/vmware-server-distrib ; sudo ./vmware-install.pl
（進入 vmware 解壓縮後的目錄，執行安裝）
6. Answer the questions presented during the installation. The defaults should be safe in most cases.
7. Because Ubuntu does not use the root user account we also need to setup access for your main user. Replace root with your username on line 10 of: /etc/vmware/hostd/authorization.xml (ACEDataUser).
（將 /etc/vmware/hostd/authorization.xml 第8行的 root 改成 ubuntu 登入的帳號）
8. At this point I had to restart my machine to put the changes in place. I did try restarting the service(s) after changing the config, but it still didn’t allow access.
（重新啟動電腦）
9. Access your VMware Server via http://localhost:8222 or https://localhost:8333
（用瀏覽器存取 VMware Server ）
10. Accessing the remote console tab to view your virtual machine will also require an extension installed to Firefox. This also requires a browser restart after the extension is installed.
（用 Firefox或 IE 都可以順利執行，不過，利用Galeon 時卻因為無法安裝套件而無法順操作 VMware）
Change the line is /etc/modprobe.d/aliases from:
alias net-pf-10 ipv6
to
alias net-pf-10 off
Networking
To start, NAT is by far the easiest way to get your guests connected to the interweb, but you may want to use the guests as servers, for this you need Host Networking. You will need to install bridge-utils and uml-utilities so that you can make a tap device and add it to a bridge.
sudo apt-get install bridge-utils uml-utilities
Now make a bridge, and put your current interface into it:
sudo tunctl -t tap1 -u fred #請將 fred 改為可以執行 VirtualBox 的帳號
sudo chown root.vboxusers /dev/net/tun
sudo chmod g+rw /dev/net/tun
Set the permission to persist across reboots, by editing as root /etc/udev/rules.d/20-names.rules and changing:
KERNEL=="tun", NAME="net/%k"
to
KERNEL=="tun", NAME="net/%k", GROUP="vboxusers", MODE="0660"
Make a new bridge called br0:
sudo brctl addbr br0
Put your current interface (in this case eth0) into promiscuous mode, then add it to the bridge and give the bridge a dhcp address.
sudo ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0 promisc
sudo brctl addif br0 eth0
If you are using DHCP to automatically get an IP address, set the bridge to use DHCP.
sudo dhclient br0
If you are using a static IP, specify the IP address, netmask and add the default gateway route
#Where 192.168.1.105 is your static IP and 255.255.0.0 is your netmask
sudo ifconfig br0 192.168.1.105 netmask 255.255.0.0
#Where 192.168.1.1 is your default gateway
sudo route add default gw 192.168.1.1 br0
Add the new tap1 device to the bridge and activate tap1 (the second line appears to be necessary according to [WWW] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=561461#3)
sudo brctl addif br0 tap1
sudo ifconfig tap1 up
