Hi guys,
Just wondering how some host offer both on 1 server do they use software like Vmserver or what? Can some of you tell me how and what software/ tools you use.

Thanks

Your talking VPS?
The physical server divided up in hardware terms, for two operating systems loaded and running independantly?

The only real way to do this is to run something like vmware or MS virtual server. But most host will have 2 servers, one running linux, one running windows.

They're most assuredly running them on separate servers.
