Because we need remote desktop connections to control our virtual machines, we need to install the appropriate extension pack now. Starting with version 4.0, VirtualBox has introduced so called "extension packs" and has outsourced some functionality like remote desktop connection support (VRDP) that was part of VirtualBox packages before version 4.0 into these extension packs. (The dkms package ensures that the VirtualBox host kernel modules are properly updated if the Linux kernel version changes.) Then we download the VirtualBox public key.Īfterwards, we install VirtualBox 4.2 as follows:Īpt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) build-essential virtualbox-4.2 dkms and add the following line to it: ĭeb http:/ //virtualbox /debian precise contrib To install VirtualBox 4.2 on our Ubuntu 12.04 server, we open /etc/apt/sources.list. I have tested this on an Ubuntu 12.04 server (host system) with the IP address 192.168.0.100 where I'm logged in as root. This tutorial explains how to install phpvirtualbox on an Ubuntu 12.04 server to manage a locally installed, headless VirtualBox (version 4.2).
It is a nice replacement for the VirtualBox GUI if you run VirtualBox in headless servers. It tries to resemble the VirtualBox GUI as much as possible to make work with it as easy as possible. Phpvirtualbox is a web-based VirtualBox front-end written in PHP that allows you to access and control remote VirtualBox instances.
