Default VMWare ESX 3.0

Got a client who has installed ESX 3.0 using the default settings on to an x346, dual proc, 8GB RAM, 460GB HDD server. They are asking if they need to make any changes before using this host in a production environment and with me being something of an ESX newbie I am seeking your help.

Can you guys give any suggestions/recommendations?

TIA

Mark

If you are going to have multiple desktops running on the same virtual network segment then yes you will have to sysprep them, otherwise the SID info will clash
