   I test [virtualbox] last year with Solaris 10 U3 and SRSS 3.1. The
   RDP-Client (uttsc) can´t connect with the VirtualBox (this time
   v.1.4)  I worked together with the developer from virtualbox to
   bring it working. With several debugversion and modified
   VirtualBox-version we can connect a SRSS4 with a VirtualBox 1.5 but
   the connection wasn't stable.

We considered vitualbox for matlab on a Sun X4150 so that we could
stay with Solaris, but the one-processor-per-vitualization is a
showstopper for us.

   Now the project is sleeping and i don't know if it is stable.
   
My tests were superficial, but RDP to vitualbox running on Linux (with
a 64-bit kernel) was stable, and vitualbox on Solaris/x86 worked very
well (but I did not test RDP there).  Issues we saw:

1. Installation requires manual labor if running on Linux/x86 with a
64-bit kernel but 32-bit otherwise.

2. The authentication method for MS-Win and RDP connections that uses
pam did not work in the scenario of item 1.  I suspect this is because
we require more 64-bit support (e.g., pam_unix2 for our NIS+
arrangement), but I did not evaluate carefully.

I'm aware that Containers for Linux discusses installation of an older
matlab, but my tests suggests that making matlab and other apps work
smoothly will be difficult.
