If this had an ajax VNC-like interface as well it would be very interesting but on its own it is just a simple admin tool where they have used JavaScript to imitate the native app.
StackVM (http://stackvm.com/ http://stackvm.com/) by pkrumins is much more interesting as a project.
EDIT:
Just noticed that they do seem to have something they are calling a "detached" console. http://phpvirtualbox.googlecode.com/svn/wiki/images/phpvb8.png http://phpvirtualbox.googlecode.com/svn/wiki/images/phpvb8.p...
My apologies for saying its not interesting, it now is.
- e1ven 16y agoThey didn't write the "detached" console functionality- They're using Sun's flash RDP client. It's a nice piece of tech, but it's licensed under the same license as the rest of Virtual Box, the Personal-Use Evaluation License. That means it's fine for test and home projects, but you can't base a product on it.
- omh 16y agoThe Virtualbox PUEL license allows commercial use as long as it's only being used by one person. And that person has to actually install it themselves. No good for many scenarios, but we use it at work under this clause. It is possible to purchase a license as well, although I don't think there's a public price and I dread to think what Oracle want to charge
- nowarninglabel 16y agoI'm trying to find out if we are already a Oracle enterprise customer if this is covered or not. Is that something general knowledge or do I have to contact an Oracle rep?
- omh 16y agoI've never purchased VirtualBox, but there is now at least an email address at http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Licensing_FAQ http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Licensing_FAQ
