    WMware-server or VirtualBox?



    Hello everyone,
    I am interested in a computer emulator which allows to create virtual computers inside my gentoo computer. I need it to install RHEL 5 (CentOS 5) as guest systems with Oracle 10g and 11g for testing and prepearing for certification. What does better work on Gentoo - WMware-server or VirtualBox?

    Either one works, but I use VirtualBox because it is easier to setup, and is geared more towards desktops. Vmware is a little ahead of the game in features, but VirtualBox is very solid.

    It is really preference though.

    Just because you use a distribution, doesn't mean everyone uses the same one.
    There is no need to login to the GUI as root!
