I need a solution to access Windows XP program running on VirtualBox.
I've Windows XP running via VB and I need to run one of Windows XP program from few other machines. I was thinking maybe I'll install run LTSP but I'm not sure it will work. I
think I could create VPN between Windows and Linux but in this case I need
to run full OS on other machines.
What are my other options?

VirtualBox supports RDP.  You can connect to it with any RDP client.

I use KRDC for this.  I start the XP virtual machine with:

  VBoxHeadless -startvm "Windows XP" &

This will run the VM but will not display anything. You connect to it through RDP.

Read the VirtualBox manual for more info (like like to configure which port to use if you don't want the default one.)

The computer is running Gentoo and Windows XP in VirtualBox.
I need to run Windows XP :-( (no choice) The program I'm running is a dental program that stores images, I need to have an access to these images from different rooms; so I have to have access to VM Windows XP in order to start the Windows XP program that will allow me to view those pictures (mostly X-rays images).

If I start VB with:
VBoxHeadless -startvm "Windows XP" will I be able to run it in foreground and 
access it via KDRC?
