- sogubsys 7y agoI need to run Windows workstation and server VMs, too. (In the screenshot, I show Windows). Additionally, the Linux VM cons with vmd are off-putting, but I'll be getting them working. I even saw a blog post about running docker containers on linux on vmd. So, I'm going to try that out soon :D
- sogubsys 7y agoTo be clear, it is more than Linux virtual machines but also Windows. The VMs are for penetration testing labs and R&D. It isn't my job, it is my hobby. I can do my job with ssh terminals and a browser.
- colechristensen 7y ago>OpenBSD is a fantastic operating system, but it is not a good choice as virtualization host. I like the idea of the computer that I physically interface with being extremely secure. Considering everything I do with virtualization is through a shell and little I do works without the Internet, accepting a bit of extra inconvenience to have that security seems like a decent trade-off.
