I have already downloaded and installed the VMware player and from the VMware site i downloaded some virtual appliances like Janus VM,smoothwall-3polar,ntpvm-scsi. But i am not sure of how to proceed further...what all prospects do I have to look out for while working with VMware player..Everything works fine by following the instructions in the VMware player.
you must have a virtual machine with some OS installed
to build a virtual machine , you require VMware
else you can use free VMBuilder
