John Troyer over at Vmware posted a new article on the VMTN Blog. Is that so special you could ask? The answer is yes. John is a SR. Product manager and manages VMTN Online so you can find new posts of him frequently but this post is special because it mentions the vm4all.com website. :-) You can find the complete article here.

VMCDConnected bug free ?
I would like to thank David, Duncan, Jae and Wojtek for all their help regarding the mysterious bug in the VMCDConnected utility. They finally tracked it down to the absence of a CD player in the virtual machine. When such a VM was scanned it resulted in an application errors like “Index was outside the bounds of the array? and “Conversion from string to type 'Boolean' is not valid?. You can find the bug free version under the software menu item of my weblog.

Virtual Machine MKS Client v1.9
I have been on vacation to the lovely Island of Rhodes (Greece) the past tree weeks. I didn’t take my laptop with me so besides from a few posts there has been little activity regarding the Virtual Machine MKS Client. I had the opportunity to read your suggestions and think about all the new features in the new version. But first of all since nobody sponsored the development I created a commercial version. The trial version shows a maximum of 16 virtual machines and the registered version has no limit. I added a combo box where you can type in the name of the virtual machine with an alphabetic list. You can also customize the menu bar by enabling or disable menu items from the registry. The last feature I added is the PreSelectVM registry key. After logging on to the server this VM is automatically connected. You can find all the keys involved at the hive HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\VB and VBA Program Settings\NTPRO.NL\Virtual Machine MKS Client. You can find the download link for the Virtual Machine MKS Client v1.9 in the software menu item of my blog.

Bob is virtualized
Today Bouke revealed some vvi-world information and created a little teaser. The teaser shows us a guy named Bob who is virtualized. Nothing special you would say, but he lives in the vvi-world. It’s still a great mystery what Bouke Groenescheij over at Jume is going to do with Bob in his vvi-world.
