My device, which is a Linux based IP in-liner is transparent to the network peripherals, that is, no IP address assigned to any of its interfaces. For the sake of the conversation, let's use ADSL connection as an example, while the device is inspecting the bi-directional traffic, the network is behaving same as if device was not there,...
In the latest version of VirtualBox with a Windows 7 64-bit host and a Windows 7 64-bit guest, is it possible to set the guest as a proxy for the host? Specifically, I want to initiate a VPN connection over HTTPS with the guest--which is a copy of a machine on an NT domain--and use that connection from the host (which is not part of the...
Take VirtualBox's virtual disk as example:if VirtualBox didn't avoid the buffer mechanism from FileSystem in host os,the FileSystem in guest os would move data from memory to meory. In fact ,I want to write a filesystem in user space(put all directorys and files in a single big file). But if I use c api such fread and fwrite ,the FileS...

Hi all, I've been reading into virtualization security and came across Blue Pill, a malicious thin hypervisor (project website is down, archived version here: http://web.archive.org/web/20080418123748/http://www.bluepillproject.org/). My question is: could a custom malicious hypervisor modify execution flow, inject and execute arbitrar...
Hi to all, on the last days I had a really annoying problem, that is just now solved, but I'll hope that some of you experienced it and figured out a solution for that. I created and installed Ubuntu 10.04 on Virtualbox 3.2.0 (installed under Win7-32 bits). On this VM was installed and configured rvm, ruby 1.8.7 and some gems. When trie...
I am using port forwarding to make the web server on a VirtualBox guest (Ubuntu 10.04) accessible from the VirtualBox host (Windows Vista x64) and other machines on my network. It works, but responses are very slow. I am doing the same port forwarding for ssh, and ssh access is very fast. Here are the commands I used to set up the for...
I'm going to develop mostly Django sites on a MacBook Pro and would like to use Ubuntu VMs for testing purposes. Which product is better suited for this purpose? Can I connect to the VM via TCP/IP (so I can have apache running on the VM and access it from Safari on my MBP)? Thanks! ...
I set up a VirtualBox to use two monitors. I tried taking a screenshot of a window on the second monitor: import ImageGrab im = ImageGrab.grab(windowrect) im.save("img.png") windowrect I verified to be the correct rect of the window, in this case, (1616, 2, 2594, 732). However, img.png is just a big black box. Any ideas how to fix thi...

I've got a Windows 7 machine upon which I do both PHP/MySql Dev, and .NET/C#/Sql Server coding. Due to a recent re-install, I thought it might be an ideal time to try and keep my machine a bit cleaner rather than install both Apache and IIS, etc. I installed VirtualBox, with Ubuntu 10.04 as the guest OS, with the plan to move my PHP ...

OK, so I began a little journey to move all of my development into virtual machines, and Virtual Box seemed like the best choice to pursue. So I get it installed and install Ubuntu and get my development environment set up, and after some tweaking it works as advertised. Yay, I think to myself, this is GOOD STUFF! But, thankfully, bef...
