Re: Virtual environments security

I saw a problem last week when I logged into a Guest OS hosted at a Virtual Server. I installed ethereal and saw all the traffic that goes to the entire server, no only my virtual server.
I wanna known if this is a configuration problem of a normal behavior of every Virtual Machine environment (maybe Vmware has this problem too)?

Thanks

Hi,
Any idea about some good resources on the subject? (VMware, Virtual PC/Server security etc) I'm interested most of all in studies towards the possibility of breaking the virtual env. (vmm in case of vmware) and directly accessing the hw resources but other general info should be just fine.
Thanks!
Octavian
