Thanks Raphael! That did it! Yes it's working fine now. If I
upgrade to the latest VB, would I change any settings or are they kept
automatically?

You should add the group vboxusers and add yourself to the group too. On Wed, Jun 17, 2009 at 6:10 PM, daniel <[email protected]> wrote:*Thanks Alan for your time and help.

I think it may be simpler to just do the following: System -> Administration -> Users and Groups : Unlock (with your administrator password) : Select Manage Groups : Select vboxusers from the list of groups : Select Properties > In the list of Group Members - If your name is already ticked then this is not the solution for you, sorry. - If your name is not ticked then tick it and this should allow you to work with VBox with your own user name. I am afraid that this may be just part of the solution but it may make life easier for you by giving you access writes to VBox. My penny's worth.

We would like to know the dimensions of the MLUG server we have currently hosted in the Balzan premises prior to moving it, to see if we need to refit the case. Is it possible for us to come along or can you take the measurements for us? Can you please take the measurements of the server (HxWxD) if its not possible to schedule a time when we can measure the dimensions.
