Thank you for the suggestions, but my main problem is to define the network interface correctly, and, probably, the firewall correctly. With regard to nomachine, it seems more about accessing remote hosts than the guest OS of a host OS. So it seems more of an overkill to me, anyway, can still be u

I am a user of emacs on virtual machines at work, and the environment works pretty well. I use virtual box as the provided workstation host windows, but the virtual machine host a linux os though. The only thing I didn't manage to do yet, is to allow the windows host to access the guest using SSH.

Oh if you're talking about students that use a combo of Mac & Windows & Linux: Suggest VirtualBox --its free and can be installed and ported to each But VirtualBox is based largely on Qemu; and for students, I highly recommend they become adept at running and using Qemu I've booted and run many

I have not used any personally, but using Docker or Vagrant it shouldn't be too hard. Quick searches on Vagrant's and Docker's public repositories reveals there are a few emacs-based images already, although I could not find any specific mentions to Org: https://app.vagrantup.com/boxes/search?utf8
