once I've created code in eclipse, how do I push the code to a local or remote sandbox. I'm currently copying with copy or rsync. it would be nice to automate.
One can run ipcop on vmware, virtual box, and QEMU. Now running virtual machines side of IP cop is quite a different story and should wait until we have released a version with a 2.6 kernel. I suspect we will know by then which virtualization system will be dominant.
