ESXi installation to access Public Site

New in VMware communities, so go easy on me.

I want to throw execute them an idea for a test setup for a Government, site access by the public. The following objectives:

-Sustainable and ecological

-Easy to maintain

-Works with the old current computers

-As inexpensive as possible

I want to build a virtualized infrastructure Office/kiosk on this site. Here are the products of preliminary tests planned:

-ESXi 4

-Ubuntu 9.04

-New server Dell 2950 - dual xeon heart, 16 GB of ram (specifications can change, not yet purchased)

VNC - connection

-Thinstation- http://www.thinstation.org/ to create a VNC client computers

-A bunch of old computers

-A few new (not yet purchased) thinclients

I don't want to ask something specific, just your thoughts. It may be your experience or even your feeling on this type of installation. I want to know how many VMs, I could hope to run like this, limitations, bottlenecks, network requirements, and anything else that I should.

As it is a public access site, running flash or games are not a concern. Just the possibility to browse the web and use open office.

Yet once, I'd like some comments on this. I will gladly keep anyone interested posted about how the tests of this system going.

Thank you

sounds like VDI or Citrix XenDesktop could adapt to your need for Xen, you can use ESXi as your lats as well

    I have download ESXi 3.5 VMware site, write on CD, but unable to boot from the CD, why? ESXi installation does not occur.

    Please help on this issue.

    Since there is no integration PAM for ESXi, you cannot authenticate to ESXi itself using active directory.  -What are you talking about?  You can always have virtual machine with windows and active directory.

  • VPN access to site-toSite to servers of HO with remote site with overlapping network...

    Hi all

    I have an obligation to create a tunnel vpn site-to-site on ASA 5510 from a remote location to my HO, I have already other site to site tunnels are on the rise and running on the ASA. This is what my remote site got the network address that is part of a subnet used in HO(192.168.10.0/24). My requirement is only my need to access remote site couple of my servers in HO, who is in the subnet 192.168.200.0/24.

    Veuileez help how can I achieve this... your advice at the beginning is very appreciated...

    Thanks in advance
    Mikael

    Hi Salem,

    I think the installer at your end is a bit like this:

    You want the remote location to access the subnet 192.168.200.0/24 behind the ASA HQ servers. In this case, you can NAT traffic from the remote site to a different subnet when you go to 192.168.200.0/24.

    i.e. the 192.168.10.0/24 subnet resemble 192.168.51.0/24 when he goes to 192.168.200.0

    This can be done by using political based natting:

    permit access-list policy-nat ip 192.168.10.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.200.0 255.255.255.0

    public static 192.168.51.0 (inside, outside) access-l policy-nat

    In the encryption of the remote side access list, you will have:

    cryptoacl ip 192.168.51.0 access list allow 255.255.255.0 192.168.200.0 255.255.255.0 (this is because the remote side will see 192.168.51.0/24 and not the 192.168.10.0/24)

    Similarly on the end of HQ the accesslist crypto will be

    XXXXX 192.168.200.0 ip access list allow 255.255.255.0 192.168.51.0 255.255.255.0

    Please try this and let me know if it helps.

    Thank you

  • When you access Intranet sites that use SSL certificates issued by our internal PKI, FF for Windows gives an error of "incorrectly put in the form of message coded DER"

  • Can not access the site Web of John Lewis, get message server unexpectedly dropped the connection all the time

    Use the iMac with El Capitan 10.11.1 & Safari 9.0.1

    During the last week, I was unable to access the site Web of John Lewis and the message "Safari cannot open page www.johnlewis.com because the server dropped the connection unexpectedly. Sometimes this happens when the server is busy. Wait a few minutes and then try again"I retry but get the same message all the time. Can access all other sites ok.

    I emptied the cache, deleted the cookies and history. Enter the name of the site in its entirety is not helped either.

    Unable to access the Web by John Lewis site with my iPad either.

    Help!

    Try restarting/resetting the router.

    Try a reboot.

    Make a backup using Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure that data files can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.

    Try to set up another admin user account to see if the same problem persists. If back to my Mac is enabled in system preferences, the guest account will not work. The intention is to see if it is specific to an account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.

    Isolate a problem by using a different user account

    If the problem is still there, try to start safe mode using your usual account.  Disconnect all devices except those necessary for the test. Shut down the computer and then put it up after a 10 second wait. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the SHIFT key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. Startup is considerably slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a check for directory and disables all start-up and connection, among other things. When you restart normally, the initial restart may be slower than normal. If the system is operating normally, there may be 3rd party applications that pose a problem. Try to delete/disable the third-party applications after a reboot using the UN-Installer. For each disable/remove, you need to restart if you do them all at once.

  • Win 7 64 bit: cannot access Web sites randomly

    I had this problem for a long time, with several computers and various installations of windows.

    After my computer has been for a few days, I'll suddenly find me unable to access all the web pages. Programs like MIRC, Skype and steam work perfectly, like online games. I just get a generic "unable to connect to the server" error when you try to access Web sites and I cannot ping all websites such as google.com (it instantly timeouts).

    Do ipconfig/release, / flushdns and / renew fixes it for a few minutes before I lose the ability to access the Web sites again.

    Disabling/renewal of the NIC does nothing and troubleshooting of windows doesn't find anything wrong.

    The only semi-permanent solution I found is to restart my computer, but the problem will occur again in a few days.

    Servers using openDNS makes no difference. Nor is switching between ethernet cable and wireless. This problem is not dependent on the browser. Reboot the router it corrects only for a few minutes until I became unable to use websites to access again.

    Does anyone know what the cause of the problem and how to fix it permanently?

    Hello.

    I suggest you to configure the TCP/IP settings and check if it works:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/2779064/en-us

    If the problem persists, I suggest you consult the website of the manufacturer of the laptop computer to download and install the latest network driver and check the results.

    Please let us know if the problem still persists.

  • "This connection is Untrusted" appears when you try to access all sites on MacBook Pro; problem started after running Avast scan of the computer

    I ran the full scan of the disc of Avast. Since then, I have been unable to access any site using Firefox without getting the message, "this connection is not approved." Many are the sites I have been too many times before, and they are trusted sites. I don't know if there is a problem with Firefox or Firefox could recover place a sort of new "infestation". The Avast scan resulted in 5 put files in a quarantine area. Eleven years could not be scanned. Thanks for any help you can provide!

    I guess Safari normally works on these sites?

    The latest version of avast! Web Shield includes a function to filter your Internet connections for potential threats. In order to filter secure sites, it must present a certificate of 'false' for the site in Firefox, so it can be 'in the middle' and read your secure communications. If Firefox is not set false certificates of trust, then you will get warnings for all secure sites.

    You can disable this feature as a test to see if the problem goes away.

    If this works, but you want to use the feature, you must import the certificate of Avast in the tab "References" of Firefox so Firefox accepts its false certificates (there might be an automated way AVAST to do this for you, or you might need export from IE and then import them into Firefox).

    Here is an exchange of views on avast! "forum of s on the way in which this is supposed to work: problems and questions about HTTPS scanning - Avast Internet 2015

  • Can't access 1 site - no solution found

    Because of this problem, I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox from the authentic site, so I have the latest version. I can access any Web site (I've tried) of Firefox, except the following Web site: http://members.amazingacademy.com. I can access this site from other browsers. I contacted the site and they advised me that they are not all the other reports of the problems of other members using Firefox. I added Firefox to my firewall and restarted my computer. I tried to add to Malwarebytes, but can't, since I have the free version, so I don't know if this may be the problem. I don't see any way to add Web sites secure Microsoft Security Essentials. Help, please! I hate Chrome & IE!

    I'm trying to access different websites that I've found only 12 hours ago, and I told myself I can not because of two issues of content - such as the proposed site porn my browser, either because the IP address is unclassifiable.
    I checked to see if I had a bad Windows Update to explain this, and although there was an update to security 12 hours ago, it was listed as successful.
    How can I access my sites again?

    I discovered that the filter also affected my Kindle. I have contacted the ISP and discovered that they had made a mistake on their end. The problem is now resolved.
    Thanks for your response.

  • Strange pages updated to the point that is trying to access a site.

    When I click to access a site, I get weird things like taking a survey of Firefox, the free map of Wal-Mart, which sell things. 1 I had was just a small white square in the middle of the page that says something like congratulations. You are the lucky visitor & win a prize. Click here. That always comes to the top too. I have never clicked on it.
    This is an example of a time it happens. I play Gardens of Time. I also belong to Facebook. If I'm on FB & one of my nabors has need of something and I try to help & can't get on the site GOT to help. I receive one of the above. I changed today to Safari and it not happened at all in Safari. I prefer Firefox, but if this continues, & there for several days, I'll be forced to use another site. Please help clarify this.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).
