UML (User Mode > Linux) works just fine today without having to do all of the hooks that > LSM requires. It "just" runs as a user task like VMWare does. UML is restricted to a user mode *LINUX*. IBM's CP/67 (which became VM) was designed for testing OS/MVT, and I've personally used VM to run OS/VS1 and MUSIC images. I do believe VMWARE will run a Microsoft operating system - that's a big market differentiation from UML - and probably requires different kernel support. /Valdis _______________________________________________ linux-security-module mailing list linux-security-moduleat_private http://mail.wirex.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-security-module
