No i have doubt about,WSS. Means WSS is the supporting services for MOSS2007 / sharepoint right? so is VMWare provides WSS as extension like in windows 2k3 ?– LalitApr 10, 2010 at 12:11

@Lalit VMWare only provides a virtualization platform. You use VMWare to host a fully fledged win2k3 installation on the machine in question. Apr 10, 2010 at 12:25

I agree with you sir, but if VMWare on XP will that work. Means is that means VMWare is virtual 2k3 ?– LalitApr 10, 2010 at 12:28

@Lalit Yes, I can confirm that you can install windows 2003 server on a VWWare instance that runs on windows XP. I have done it many times, and also with sharepoint installed on the virtual win2k3 server. Apr 10, 2010 at 12:55
