Whonix will support cli console so you can send commands directly from a host terminal to the VM’s.

How do I enter the whonix shell from cli

I have imported the xml files for the whonix gateway and workstation, and they’re both running on my headless server. How do I manage them now and enter their filesystems? I can’t SSH into them. I tried running # virsh console Whonix-Gateway, but get this error: error: internal error: cannot find character device null Should I edit the xml file? I didn’t want to do that without knowing for sure it won’t mess something up, so figured I’d post. Thanks.

you can even reduce RAM enough to prevent the GUI from loading if you need to.

Build from source code should [1] also be possible.

Build and Update Whonix from Source Code

[1] I usually don’t test --target libvirt, --flavor whonix-gateway-cli / --flavor whonix-workstation-cli builds.
