Spend a little bit of money and buy VMWare workstation:
http://www.vmware.com/products/ws/
With VMWare running on my Windows XP OS, I can install many CentOS4
'virtual servers'. Each virtual server gets its own IP address and is
assigned to a virtual network. The network is NATed to the outside via
the Windows interface, but in each virtual server, the IP can be
10.10.10.x etc... I can do this to set up an entire virtual network
full of servers. UM3 can even run in HA mode since each VM thinks it is
a separate machine.
VMWare on Windows is about USD $189 and they have a version for Linux
too. Well worth the money, IMHO. I do not work for VMW or receive
commissions for saying this either. There may be similar solutions
available via open source, but I am not familiar with them and don't
need to be since VMWare works, works well, and is and affordable tool.
I create and destroy VMs all the time testing the latest and greatest
distros out there.
