Edit vswitch properties via command-line

OK so I have been trying to figure out a way to script the settings for vSwitches in ESX 3.x and got it!

vimsh is the command and there is a great site out there that has some pdf files talking about the various things you can do with vimsh.xtravirt.com

So for example: if you wanted to Reject Forged Transmits you would issue the following command from the service console.
vimsh -n -e "hostsvc/net/vswitch_setpolicy --securepolicy-forgedxmit=false vSwitch0"

PPC6700 Internet Sharing over WiFi

OK this is just darn cool... Much faster than using USB or Bluetooth.
It was easy to install... Double-click on the cab file from the phone... Launch app... Hit connect.

From there I just had to connect from my laptop. The phone showed up like a normal hotspot and viola!

Here is the link

iPhone...unleashed

Check this site out. If you have an iPhone and want to be able to install tons of new apps, this would be the place to go first. I like their quote at the top of the homepage.... "Our stuff is better than theirs"
