James O'Neil: It has been a frustrating few days.
I've got a new (internal) interim build of Windows Server Virtualization to test. Since we're on the road doing virtualization in a few weeks I've used my second internal hard disk (£28 from Scan, or over £100 from Dell with a small peice of plastic attached). Of course that meansthe disk that I do my work on is out of the machine and I'm working in notepad at the moment.
Since I didn't want to join my 2008 Server to the domain, it doesn't meet the IP-Sec requirements to connect to corporate servers - although I can connect to the internet via a proxy.
What I can say about WSV is limited and although I'm taking screenshots as I go, the product folks have asked that we don't post any yet. I haven't tested the performance and it's way to early to do so. Since the product isn't even in beta yet I'm not going to shed much light on features for the time being; although I'll mention in passing is that WSV doesn't support connections to wireless networks from a child OS.
