| Sep 26, 2013 at 1:37 | comment | added | Michael Hampton Mod | Now that Vagrant supports KVM, there's little reason to be using VirtualBox even in this scenario. | |

We even use NAT and host-only on those (the lan is mac white-listed (and yes, i know that's retarded)). Just because an individual sysadmin doesn't use VirtualBox does not mean it's off topic for a professional forum, any more than asking about dsl modems just because "mostly" homes use them. | |

There are very few virtualbox questions I would consider to be "on topic", and most are related to the deployment and administration of virtualbox as a component of an enterprise solution (e.g. "We would like to provide VirtualBox environments to our developers for testing purposes - what are some ways we can implement this?"). Questions about using virtualbox, or quirks specifically related to virtualbox, should be directed to VirtualBox support (Oracle). | |
