Lock information within Guest

Post by espozel »

Hello, I am a new user of VirtualBox. Until now, I have only used virtual machines with simplified configurations.

I wonder if it is possible to create a machine with settings locked (not user modifiable), where there is no host interface (usb, folders, mouse, clipboard, internet, printscreen (desired) etc).

The only connection with the outside world would be a network drive with specific ip in my lan.

I want to copy this machine on a few hosts and make sure that its users wont be able to transfer information from/to the guest (by changing the pre configured specifications for example).

I appreciate any comments and also some guidelines if not asking to much.

Regards

It may well be possible but it really has nothing to do with VirtualBox. How you lock it down would depend on the OS you are running in the vm and the user permissions.
