My CentOS wiki name: MVieira I'd like to suggest a small update to the page http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Virtualization/VirtualBox where it reads "usermod -G vboxusers username" could be updated to "usermod -a -G vboxusers username" The reason being, usermod -G will add the user to the new supplimentary group but will also remove the same user from any other supplementary groups he/she might be part of. While adding the argument "-a" w...

I recently doownloaded and installed the latest RHEL5 rpm from the VirtualBox web site. While it generally works very well, I have been unable to get USB access to work on the guest. This seems to be a very common problem. Many references to it turn up in a web search, but I have not found a solution that works on CentOS 5. I got no response on the vbox-users mailing list either. Can anyone

...on /dev/net/tun. Some research indicated that rather than directly editing the rule in /etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules that I should create my own local rules file something like 10-local.rules which contains KERNEL=="tun", NAME="net/%k", OWNER="root", GROUP="vboxusers", MODE="0660" But unfortunately when I reboot the permissions are still 0 crw------- 1 root root 10, 200 Oct 24 14:09 /dev/net/tun Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Or point me to some clear documentation about creating custom udev rules. Thanks

Hi, On a box running CentOS 5.6 x86_64 and Virtualbox 4.0.6, I have configured 2 guests (WinXP x86 + CentOS 5.6 x86_64) in bridged mode. The hosting box and the two guests are dhcp enabled. The hosting box get its address normally, but the 2 hosted systems fail to get theirs. The dhcp server log tells : DHCPDISCOVER from 08:00:xx:xx:xx:xx via em0: network xx.xx/16: no free leases. When
