Hi,

Im evaluating Vmware view 3.1. We're planning to use it for part of our network that doesn't have Windows AD. Is it possible to use an automated pool (linked clones), with a MS workgroup? It keeps trying to force me to use Quickprep which in turn is forcing me to connect to a domain.

Thanks

Actually, i've just tried configuring the entitlements and it will only allow me to select AD objects, so does VMware view just not work without AD?

Yes, quickprep requires a domain.
