I think ‘cannon’ should be spelled ‘canon.’ But besides that, this is an excellent post. People tend to either sleep on or be unaware of the value oif these products. Once awareness increases, I think this sector is going to blow up.

A grammar Nazi quibble: I suspect when you used the word “cannon”, you meant “canon”.

BTW, one nice thing I discovered about running Windows as a VM on Linux is that if your Linux system is sharing files via Samba, you don’t need the “Shared Folders” option of VirtualBox because the Windows VM is on the same network as your Samba server and will see your file shares nicely, giving you full access to your Linux files.

@jasray: Using the latest releases of VirtualBox you shouldn’t have any problem. you are connecting to the IP of the host not the guest so the built in NAT of VirtualBox should take care of it. Now I have never used VB with a TAP. let me know if you have success. And yes, 3389 is the default port.

And if I need to connect Vista to Remote Virtual? PuTTy? Are default ports–3389–required? Port forwarding? The VM will be using a TAP adapter with an odd IP? I’ve working with VirtualBox, but I’ve never really considered using it as a Remote Machine.
