is it possible to create a VmWare Server VM on VMware

Workstation?

Yes. Be sure to select "Custom" when creating the VM and set it to be "Workstation 5 Compatible" which will work with Server.

Virtual machines created with WS 4.x, 5.x are compatible with VMware Server.

If you create a virtual machine with Workstation 6 and use the version 6 virtual hardware, you will need to use the "VM" -> Change Version" wizard to downgrade the hardware version to be compatible with VMware Server.

Is there any information as to when an updated Server will be released that WILL support V6 VM's ?

Thanks
