Duplicate your guest VM and move it to another VMWare host.
I, as most of you, installed my server on VMWare as a virtual guest. Step one is to have a valid, licensed, working build. When you duplicate the server as shown below the web GUI is no longer available…the box is only good for authentication it will keep your clients working while you get the main box going again. What I’m showing you how to do is simply setup a backup box for authentication, not administration. I think for the price of the software is great, so I would never advocate a method to circumvent licensing. The software is licensed via a MAC address on one of your server’s NICs. The point of this article is to show you how to add some redundancy to your configuration. I personally use it for my hotspot clients in Mikrotik. Radius Manager is a product from DMA softlabs that acts as a radius authentication system for your wireless or hotspot clients.
