Separate prl_naptd processes per virtual machine for Little Snitch compartmentalization

[AlekseyM1]

Hi,

I am using Little Snitch on the machine where I use Parallels as well, and I would love to be able to have different Little Snitch rules for different virtual machines. Currently Little Snitch sees all traffic from all machines as coming from a single prl_naptd process.
Does anyone know if there is a way to have a separate process visible to LS for every VM ? Or any other way to have different LS rules for different machines ?

Thank you.

Hello AlekseyM1,
Please provide us more details on the issue with screen shots, we will assist you further.

The details are simple, and I don't think they need screenshots to be understandable.
Whenever a VM initiates a connection out to the Internet, Little Snitch pops up an alert saying that the "prl_naptd" process tries to connect out. The problem is that Little Snitch sees connections from any VM as connections from a single "prl_naptd" process. I was wondering if there is a way to have separate OSX prl_naptd process for every VM or any other way to have Little Snitch rules per VM and not for all VMs combined.

Thank you.

Reopening this old thread as the requested feature would be very useful to me.

A year after the last post, but this would be extremely useful.

I'd love this, as well!

This would still be very useful. When using multiple VMs, everything showing under a single prl_naptd process makes it hard to manage proper Little Snitch rules.
I care about privacy in general, so per-VM visibility would be a great improvement.
