When I had VMWare Player, when I started the program, it would show a list of VMs on my machine that I could open. When I start VMWare Server, I don't see anything like that.

The management interface is listening on port 8333. You can access it with a web browser - (from your VMWare Server machine) https://localhost:8333 or (from a different machine - use the IP Address of your VMWare Server) - https://ip-address:8333

You access it through a web interface from a remote computer.

VMWare Server is EoA, though and it is scheduled for EoS in less than a year. I would stay away from doing anything on VMWare Server.

So it virtual machines can't be accessed locally? – Phenom Aug 2 '10 at 10:22
Not from Server 2.0 or ESXi – MDMarra Aug 2 '10 at 11:57

Seems there is an executable client, which you can use instead of the web interface:

Nice, but that's an .exe file. That's made for Winblows. – Phenom Aug 27 '10 at 18:08
