Better yet, for some of these is LXC.  I run several instances of
Debian managed by libvirt on a Gentoo host, with much less overheads
than you get from a VM.

apt-get install virt-manager bridge-utils libvirt-bin lxc debootstrap

will probably get you started.  Use debootstrap to create the
Debian/Ubuntu instances, creating the root filesystems in
/var/lib/libvirt/images, then use virt-manager to set them up in LXC.
