Looking for a free virtual machine server for both win and linux

Hi,
I'm looking for a FREE virtual machine server to host windows and linux virtual machines.
I prefer to run it under Linux, without any GUI and control it from a different workstation (that way all the resources are free for the virtual-machines work).

There's anything like that for free? unfortunately there is no budget for stuff like that right now.

Thank you!

this is the best:
