In recent weeks I have started using VirtualBox on my Linux desktop machine, which has allowed me to get rid for good of dual booting: I run Debian, but need from time to time a MS Windows box to be able to access some modern gadgets (Camera, cellphone, GPS, Casio CD Printer) for which there is no Linux possibility.
This set me thinking: for a single Linux or Windows user, no LAN, would it be reasonable (and feasible) to run IPCop in VirtualBox, to improve the security of his computer, but without the hassle of having to run a second box for IPCop ?
Of course said single user could get along using a RaspberryPi running IPFire, but the VB idea has a certain appeal...
Cheers,
Ron.
