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. and directly accessing the hw resources but other general info should be just fine.

This is doable either via: -Virtual Network (only if it's configured in the VM software) or -Bugs in the VM Software

(for example VirtualPC crashes with certain commands - esp. while
playing TuxRacer on Mandrake Linux 9.2 :) - maybe those bugs can be
exploited to get control over the real environment. )
