Hi all,

..
⟫ VBoxHeadless -s b504xxxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxxxxxde

Code: Select all

Oracle VM VirtualBox Headless Interface 5.0.26

VRDE server is listening on port 3389.

Well, for start you could @@ and @@@@ @@@@@@@@, then if that doesn't work you could ### # ##### and ##### ## ## #### ###, and if that doesn't work %%%% % %%%% %%%%%%% %%%% %%%.
