Topicbox-Message-UUID: def73db0-ead3-11e9-9d60-3106f5b1d025 there's a certain level of administration required, sure, but i think eric's point was that the level of administration required just to get a good VM environment up is pretty minimal. if your VM has its own access to disk and network, you needn't have linux users or full network information. especially if your linux has been gutted so you don't have "helpful" demons running around in the background, this can be a fairly light - and front-loaded - burden. non-zero, to be sure, but not what you'd expect from a normal production linux box. anthony
