User Reviews

  • Just what I needed to allow a controlled shutdown of the host in the event of a powerfail.
  • Great tool! thanks for you time developing!
  • The best available soution at this time.
  • Isn't compatible with VirtualBox 4.1.12 without a few adjustments. backups won't work if there's a space in the machine folder name. Also VRDP changed to "VRDE port" and the way the machines name is determined is flawed. It is a good tool but needs more testing scenarios across different versions.
  • Really helpful, once you figure out the quirks. For example, machine name in machines.conf matches machine name in GUI list of machines. Dynamic setting of vrdpport setting from machines.conf was not working, but I've fixed it in my copy, and will check if it's been fixed in the distro copy. Overall, a must-have for managing set of headless VMs!
