title: How do you use completely free software to create ovf files for VMware ESXi?
body: <p>Ok, so let's say that I want to try virtualization in my environment. I want to use ESXi to do that because it is free. I can use the install disk and setup a box to run the ESXi Host.</p>
  
  <p>I'm not sure if the VMware Infrastructure Client is free for one thing. You can use it to attach an ovf file (a packaged VM). The problem I had is creating an ovf file that worked. The free converter didn't do the trick.</p>
  
  <p>Does anyone have any tips or guidelines?</p>
