vboxmanage guestcontrol execute does not provide user groups — at Initial Version
| Reported by: | Paolo Virtual | Owned by: | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Component: | guest control | Version: | VirtualBox 4.0.0 |
| Keywords: | Cc: | ||
| Guest type: | Linux | Host type: | other |
Description
If a command is executed via "vboxmanage guestcontrol execute /usr/bin/xterm ...", the user groups are not set correctly within the guest. For example, if I login locally inside the VM, all groups are present
in VM: $ id uid=1000(vm) gid=1000(vm) groups=20(dialout),29(audio)
If I execute the same command via vboxmanage, the groups section is missing.
$ id uid=1000(vm) gid=1000(vm)
