VirtualBox provides command line support to create virtual machines on headless server (<a href="http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/UserManual.html#id2516218" rel="nofollow">http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/UserManual.html#id2516218</a>). It also provides ability to run the virtual guests headless and they can be controlled via RDP (<a href="http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/UserManual.html#vboxheadless" rel="nofollow">http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/UserManual.html#vboxheadless</a>). Hope this helps Good luck!!! -lucidTipster Hi Sanjay,

I understand that VWWare allows this (based on comments to your VWWare Tip) but not sure if VirtualBox will have the same capability.
