    Hello all

    Does anyone know of a fix/work around to stop the network setting being shown when creating a virtual machine?

    I work in education and the staff let the students create whatever they want, meaning they could also access what they like which can result in all sort of security issues

    I can create a VM to have host only settings however one thing I cant do is stop people accessing the network settings of the VM, they can easily go to a NAT or Bridged connection?

    Does anyone have any ideas what to do?

    Thanks

    ZX

    Sounds a nitemare. Worked in a few schools and teachers\management can be super hard work (assuming yours are!)

    Maybe pre-create them. What are they using to create VMs?

    What software are you using to host the VMs? is it VMware, HyperV / RHEV based?

    Ideally you probably need to offer some kind of deployment portal for users to deploy from, you may also want to consider something like View as a gateway if they are desktop type VMs because that's all controlled via either HTML5 or native view clients.
