I've been running several servers (Windows of various versions and a Linux system) as virtual machines under VMWare Server for Linux for about a year now. I remember there were some problems with trying to get FreeBSD to run VMWare previously? Is anyone virtualizing systems using a FreeBSD host, and if so what are you using? Or is FreeBSD primarily just useful for being a virtual guest if it isn't on the physical machine?
