How to start a run a VM in VMWare Server?

When I had VMWare Player, when I started the program, it would show a list of VMs on my machine that I could open. When I start VMWare Server, I don't see anything like that.

The management interface is listening on port 8333. You can access it with a web browser - (from your VMWare Server machine) https://localhost:8333 or (from a different machine - use the IP Address of your VMWare Server) - https://ip-address:8333

You access it through a web interface from a remote computer.

VMWare Server is EoA, though and it is scheduled for EoS in less than a year. I would stay away from doing anything on VMWare Server.

So it virtual machines can't be accessed locally? – Phenom – 2010-08-02T10:22:37.433

Not from Server 2.0 or ESXi – MDMarra – 2010-08-02T11:57:54.340

Seems there is an executable client, which you can use instead of the web interface:

Nice, but that's an .exe file. That's made for Winblows. – Phenom – 2010-08-27T18:08:48.980
