Hello,

I'm a little confused as to what the extent of the VNC support in the OSE edition is, as advertised here? http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Editions ...

This URL gives the impression of native VNC support. Unless this was added to 3.2 (I'm using 3.1.6), I'm assuming this actually means that you can access the Virtualbox GUI by using VNC as a service separate from Virtualbox?

If this is the case, is it correct to say that the headless mode doesn't really have much purpose in OSE since you can't attach a console session to your VM guests? If this is also the case, what sort of techniques do you employ for running an OSE based server remotely? I'm thinking that really the only way to do it is VNC to a single port and just leaving those console sessions open and running at all times?

Am I missing something?

Sorry for the newbie questions, but there was some talk about VNC patches, and I wasn't sure whether or not this contradicts what is written in the above URL. If need be I can look into the patches, I just don't know if this still applies. I also wasn't sure if I was missing something in light of the impressions I got from the above URL.

Thanks in advance for helping square everything away in my head
