[OpenIndiana-discuss] Running VirtualBox

[Edward Ned Harvey]

It turns out, this is the best answer for the USB support:

Add yourself to the vboxuser group (and logout and login) before launching
the guest VM.  That group has the requisite permissions.

It turns out, this is the best answer for the remote console:
https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch07.html

You can launch machines headless with VBoxHeadless.
You can make the guest physical console available over RDP.
By default, there's no username or password on VRDE, but you can enable it.
By default, "external" means authenticate using any username/pass from the
host OS.  But you can change the vrdeauthlibrary to VBoxAuthSimple, and then
you can specify any username/pass you want for the RDP connection.

If you have more than one guest, you can either have them listen on
different ports
	VBoxManage modifyvm <vmname> --vrdeport 3389
Or listen on different IP addresses
	VBoxManage modifyvm <vmname> --vrdeaddress <hostip>
