Forwarding port from public IP to vbox NAT

Post by ODTech »

Hi all.

I have a ubuntu 12.04 LTS headless server running vbox as host. I want to install a Windows 7 Guest and make it available for a friend to use but i don't want the user to be able to connect to my personal network.

If i put the Windows 7 guest network into NAT mode is there some way i can forward the incoming RDP request from my public IP to the Win7 guest behind the VBox NAT?

VPN seems like a surefire way but i don't have much experience with them and would prefer as little setup on the user side as possible.

Last resort is teamviewer.

Thanks in advance.
