I see, so the physical interface of the host stands "beside" (i.e. on the same level) of the virtual bridge that virtualbox creates as a virtual interface for the VMs? This would be great, I would just lock up the host with iptables "drop all" in all directions and be done?! Great! Thank you very much!
