[hobbit] Hobbit on a virtual machine?

[Geoff]

While I haven't run that many VM's on a single server, I've had no
issues with Hobbit running on them.
My server is on a VM session and I have a range of clients also on VM
sessions (Centos mostly but also Suse and W2K)

Running latest hobbit.

Regards
Geoff
