I just installed virtualbox on my server without X11 support intending to run it headless and now I find that the Virtual Remote Display Protocol support is only available in the closed source version. The virtualbox Editions page says that some of the closed source features may eventually become available in the open source version as well, has anyone heard anything about this happening for VRDP? Are there any other options that would allow me to set up a VM remotely without installing X? I suppose I could set up a VM locally and then copy it to my server once it's configured for remote ssh access but that would involve copying several GB over the internet, a rather slow process on my connection. Thanks, Jonathan P.S. Thank you very much to all who have helped bring VirtualBox to FreeBSD!
