VirtualBox Headless Configuration on Ubuntu | Virtualbox for server lucid

-

Step 1. Install your Linux os (used ubuntu)
a. use a lightweight desktop manager if you have only 1 pc (fluxbox)

Step 2. Download VirtualBox package at VirtualBox.org
a. use your appropriate distribution (on me is dpkg)

Step 3. Install VirtualBox ( install your guest os i named my guest xp)

Step 4. Install rdesktop  (I have compiled the source since I think its not available on ubuntu repository. make sure you have compiler. Extract the package and
$   ./configure
$    make

(It will show errors if you don't have compilers installed like gcc etc. just download it using apt-get on ubuntu, yum on fedora etc)


Step 5. Run VirtaulBox at console

VBoxHeadless --startvm XP --vrdp on --vrdpaddress 192.168.1.102 --width 512

Step 6. Run rdesktop 192.168.1.102

Full working Headless VirtualBox
