VMware server client for OS X. Seems silly to not have one. Or just make the viclient work on OS X.

One more voice requesting a mac client.

Perhaps you guys could use a CrossOver product to easily port the client to mac os.

I'd like to echo this sentiment. Although Safari 3.1.2 works very well as a client with the exception of the non-working console.

With a lot of administrators and developers switching to the Mac. Having a remote console on the Mac is ever more crucial. I know you can use VNC and RDP or radmin to access the box. But, there really is a need to be able to do every basic admin task on a Mac like you can on all of the other platforms. I do use Linux and Windows both natively and in VMWare Fusion, but it would be essential to have a Mac remote console for easy access. BTW, when are the VMWare guys going to treat the Mac platform seriously? I have a Mac Pro with plenty of memory, 8 cores of processor, and a block storage device with RAID 5 that runs as fast as RAM with the capacity of a harddrive. I am dying to see a real VMWare Fusion server with remote SSL access similar to VMWare Server 2.0. And, yes I will pay for it. Currently, under VMWare Fusion on the Mac Pro, I can comfortably run 10 copies of Windows Vista at the same time, alongside OpenSuSE, Sun Solaris, while simultaneously burning a CD, streaming music from 3 sources in 3 separate VMs with 3 different OSes, and watching and recording EyeTV on the host all without missing a beat and a single skip. VMWare that's power that is waiting to be tapped.

A Proper Mac remote console is only right. It completes the circle with VNC, RDP, VMWare and a real command line that can easily SSL into UNIX/Linux and run X Windows all natively.
