> Are you saying that both approaches have the same level of security or probable insecurities? or that you can't currently estimate the difference?

A bit of both, but mostly the former. In practical terms, they both have the same level of security. But -as with any software- something could be published tomorrow exposing some massive flaw that totally blows one or the other out of the water. However neither offer any technical advantage over the other from a security stand point and from a practical perspective, the real question of security is whether your guest OSs are locked down to begin with (eg it's no good arguing which home security system is the most effective if you leave the front door open to begin with).

> Even being aware that this is a Linux solution I mentioned the Windows technologies that I know technically.

That's fair enough and I had suspected that was the case. I just wanted to make sure that we were both talking about the same thing :)
