How to set up Exchange 2007 on VMWare?
I have VMWare installed on a physical Windows 2008 server. I want to run Exchange 2007 as a virtual machine within it. Is this possible or not worth the time? It would be for pure testing.

Thanks for pointing that out. I was talking about 2007, but refered to 2003 and service pack 2 and put a link to it. Wow i guess i shouldnt answer late at night.
Here is the link to the 2007 SP1 Download:

The download is the full exchange install with SP1 already included. All you need is a key to use it past 60 days.

Sounds like you are running VMWare server on a Windows 2008 host OS. Is this 64-bit? If you are trying to install the production version of Exchange 2007 this is only 64-bit compatible. I don't see any issues with this for a lab I do use VMWare or Virtual PC, etc to host all my lab systems including Exchange 2007 SP1.
