Hi ,

Is there any way to find interface binding info in virtualbox .. If one user uses the interface other users not able to use the same interface we are getting VERR_PERMISSION_DENIED error message.

We need to find whether interface is binded to another virtual machine or not of the other user


Thanks & Regards

you can parse the output of vboxmanage showvminfo <vmname> --details to see which interface it is using, but you will have to do it under each user's session so you can actually see the VMs...

If you could give a bit more insight on how you've setup it, that could be helpfull

Is there any way to find on the same user ...its bit difficult take each and every user we thousands of users....

The only way you have is to parse the .vbox file for every VM then, but the content & format can change anytime (undocumented on purpose), so for every upgrade you would need to test first.

Thanks for the inputs .. i have one more question ..how virtual box giving VERR_PERMISSION_DENIED error when other user using the same interface. Is there flag/lock binding to host only interface .....

Without the verbatim error message, the log file of the VM and its configuration, not much we can tell you.
For the log file and the VM configuration, you can find instruction here. Make sure you attach it all as a zip file.

Also, what are the permission on the host-only interface?
