11 What do you mean by shadow?

13 There are a few options:
14 1) Have VirtualBox run a remote desktop server. You would connect to
15 VirtualBox, not the guest system.
16 2) RDPWrap (https://github.com/stascorp/rdpwrap) - This would allow
17 you to log in multiple times via Terminal Services to your local
18 machine. You could run VirtualBox on another account or on another
19 session of your normal account.
20 3) X2Go - This is really the best option I have used recently.
21 4) FreeNX - This may be defunct now, and may still depend on the
22 proprietary parts of NxMachine.
23 5) XRDP (http://www.xrdp.org/) - This is an open source Terminal
24 Services compatible server.
25 6) X forwarding - There are X servers for Windows and OSX.

27 I'd strongly recommend against #1. It is easy to set up at first but
28 becomes hard to integrate your experience between remote and local
29 systems. If you can spare the time I would recommend trying #4, RDP,
30 save its security, is actually a fairly feature-complete protocol,
31 supporting things like tunneling local devices to the remote machine.
