Just as you like:

--vrdeauthtype null      : no authentication at all (useful in a well-
                           secured LAN, cut off from the outside world,
                           for quick-and-dirty testing)

--vrdeauthtype external  : specify an own --vrdeauthlibrary where you
                           can do/check anything you want (a "VBoxAuth.so"
                           is included to check against the host's PAM
                           system, and a "VBoxAuthSimple" to check against
                           some hand-made settings in the VM config file;
                           but of course you can compile an own "myauth.so"
                           where you can check MySQL databases, LDAP servers,
                           date, time, the current weather and all that) :-)

--vrdeauthtype guest     : authentication by the guest system via the Guest
                           Additions (don't know if it's fully supported
                           yet, never tried out)
