|

14 | When using remote iSCSI storage and the storage server
|
---|
15 | requires authentication, an initiator secret can optionally
|
---|
16 | be supplied with the <userinput>VBoxManage
|
---|
17 | storageattach</userinput> command. As long as no settings
|
---|
18 | password is provided, by using the command line option
|
---|
19 | <codeph>--settingspwfile</codeph>, then this secret is
|
---|
20 | stored <i>unencrypted</i> in the machine
|
---|
21 | configuration and is therefore potentially readable on the
|
---|
22 | host. See <xref href="storage-iscsi.dita">iSCSI Servers</xref> and
|
---|
23 | <xref href="man_VBoxManage-storageattach.dita">VBoxManage storageattach</xref>.

28 | When using the Oracle VM VirtualBox web service to control an
|
---|
29 | Oracle VM VirtualBox host remotely, connections to the web service
|
---|
30 | are authenticated in various ways. This is described in
|
---|
31 | detail in the Oracle VM VirtualBox Software Development Kit (SDK)
|
---|
32 | reference. See <xref href="VirtualBoxAPI.dita#VirtualBoxAPI"/>.
