Prerequisites
=============
Users, that want to use the VirtualBox autostart feature, have to be
members of the vboxusers group.
E.g.:
sudo usermod -aG vboxusers USERNAME
Preparation
===========
For each autostart user, add a section in /etc/vbox/autostart.cfg:
USERNAME = {
allow = true
}
Users work
==========
The *first* time a user configures autostart, the command:
