I am writing a programe to connect to VBox server, and I am using VBox's webserver by runing vboxwebsrv.exe.
By setting: VBoxManage setproperty websrvauthlibrary null
can login the web server without username and password.

however, I need some kind of authentication, so I need to set a user name and password. Any one knows how to set that?
(seems need to do with WSDL, but I am not sure how to do)

This is all described in the SDK documentation.

I have read the SDK doc, but still not quite sure what to do exactly.
Can you give some more details?

very urgent. thanks

ok I got it. the user name and password for vbox authentication is same login name and password for the host which the vbox is installed.
so no need to set a user name and password in any files in vbox.

Sorry, still have problem here, it seems any username and password will pass the authentication.

Code: Select all

VBoxManage setproperty websrvauthlibrary default
vboxwebsrv -t 1000

and in VBox API I called:

Code: Select all

vbox = VirtualBox.connect(HostIP, "Admin", "pswd"); //admin, and pswd are my system username and password

but it seems all string can pass the authentication.

I saw in SDK doc:

Code: Select all

#include "VRDPAuth.h"
/**
* Authentication library entry point. Decides whether to allow
* a client connection.
*
* Parameters:
*
* pUuid Pointer to the UUID of the virtual machine
* which the client connected to.
* guestJudgement Result of the guest authentication.
* szUser User name passed in by the client (UTF8).
* szPassword Password passed in by the client (UTF8).
* szDomain Domain passed in by the client (UTF8).
*
* Return code:
*
* VRDPAuthAccessDenied Client access has been denied.
* VRDPAuthAccessGranted Client has the right to use the
* virtual machine.
* VRDPAuthDelegateToGuest Guest operating system must
* authenticate the client and the
* library must be called again with
* the result of the guest
* authentication.
*/
VRDPAuthResult VRDPAUTHCALL VRDPAuth(PVRDPAUTHUUID pUuid,
                                     VRDPAuthGuestJudgement guestJudgement,
                                     const char *szUser,
                                     const char *szPassword
                                     const char *szDomain)
{
   /* process request against your authentication source of choice */
   return VRDPAuthAccessGranted;
}

If I want to set up an user name and password,do I have to change the code above? How do I make sure of this code?

Code: Select all

VBoxManage setproperty websrvauthlibrary default|null|<library>

what is <library>? what should I put here for library?

Thanks , very urgent.
