Remote Management?....

Post by VcDeveloper »

How can I manage my VM on my Ubuntu Linux Server from WIndows Vista using VB? Is this possible and if not, what remote management software can I use to connect to my server and to manager my VM?

Well, I was looking for something like MS Hyper-V Remote Manager. And, I was hopeing VB would have something like this intergrated into it. I was running a eval Windows 2008 Data Center with Hyper-V Manager and I really liked being able to administer my VHD's from my Vista. Now I'm running ZorinOS Ubuntu. Do Sun have anything like this?

Check out Virtualbox Web Console http://code.google.com/p/vboxweb/. Its linked from the home page.

I haven't tried it yet, and it seems some people have had problems but it sounds very promising. Hopefully I get get python running in IIS and avoid having a 2nd webserver.

The flash based RDP client looks very nice. Shame it isn't open source...
