All good things must come to an end and so has the Linhost VM repository. Thank you for your support, the repository grew too large and expensive(advertising did not fully cover the costs involved).

Originally, the repository was created to provide a solution to those using VMware Player since previous versions were unable to create virtual machines, that has changed for the better. Once again thank you for using the repository, good luck!.

I will be taking down the page in a week.

Welcome to the virtual machine repository. All downloads make use of 7-Zip for compression in order to save bandwidth and time. FAQ available at the bottom of this page. Thank you for choosing Linhost.info, download are distributed via the HTTP protocol. Do not forget to use the md5sum to verify the integrity of your download.

NOTE! Please do not link directly to the virtual machines, instead refer people to http://linhost.info or http://linhost.info/vmware

FAQ

What is the Ubuntu VM Root password ?
By default Ubuntu has no password set for the root user. To manually set a
password for the root user type:

sudo passwd

And enter a password for the root user.

Why 7-Zip for compression ?
Out of all the compression methods I tried (zip, rar) 7-Zip had the best compression ratio which helps by saving bandwidth everyday.

Are the virtual machines tested ?
Yes, each virtual machine is always tested prior to being uploaded in both Linux (Ubuntu), Windows (XP), VMware Workstation and Player in both platforms.

The downloads are only offered via HTTP, but I don’t see BitTorrent ?
I would like to offer the downloads via BitTorrent, however I do not have the funds to offer that option. BitTorrent coming soon…..

May I link to Linhost.info ?
Yes, this is the Internet after all. All that I ask is that you do not link directly to the virtual machines.
