VirtualBox VBoxManage - The oft forgotten command line tool
Episode 87: Investigating VBoxManage and some of what it can do. We focus on the task of exporting VMs so they can be backed up to external/off-site storage. We also go through a short script that I built to automate this task.
Netbird is an easy-to-use, open-source alternative to TailScale and Zerotier. Available for Linux, macOS, Windows and Android, it provides a great product that is free for up to 5 users and 100 devices. There is also a self-hosted option.
Netbird is available for Windows directly through the website, or you can install it with winget.
