Good day all; I have a Mac Mini Late 2012 with 4GB Ram and i5. The machine is upgraded to 16GB, and might change drive to SSD. I am targeting this machine to be a host machine running Virtual Box on which I will run a Win 10 machine and an Ubuntu Server 16.04. Both these VM’s will be hosting web applications and connecting to the Internet. On Win 10 I will be running IIS and hosting ASP.NET sites. On Ubuntu I have some two PHP/MySQL applications and two other web applications running on own ports (8500 & 8501). The thinking is that I will route relevant ports to the relevant VM/Port using Virtual Box. My questions: 1. Is this doable with Mac? 2. Do I need to install MacOS Server since the machine will be connected directly to the web? 3. Will I be able to remote into the VM’s directly (eg: ssh into the Ubuntu box)? 4. Will I be able to remote into the Mac to, for example, restart the physical machine or restart Virtual Box? Thanks

Using MacMini as host for Internet facing Virtual Box VM's -
Got to call the IT department...He went to school. You did not. At least that is the idea the support guys at my place think the world works.
