[one-users] Trying to run opennebula using VMWare on Windows

[Manish Sapariya]

Tino I wanted to confirm one thing.
You have referred to documentation of SDK 4.0,
however I am using sdk 2.5 as mentioned in the
opennebula vmware page.

Do you think things should work fine if I use SDK 4?

Thanks and Regards,
Manish
