Maybe a bit "perverted" idea, but: Given that the "guest OS" is more often something like Windows, maybe VirtualBox will be better in forwarding the USB as-is? Then you will need a DOS "USB serial port" driver to access your serial devices, but at least VirtualBox does not have to simulate some type of device/port out of some other type of device/port? Your DOS driver would do the transform "inside guest space" :-) Eric ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Using storage to extend the benefits of virtualization and iSCSI Virtualization increases hardware utilization and delivers a new level of agility.
