vboxnet fails for groups -- bug in vboxnet => Fixed in 1.6.4

Reported by: dan.glassman Assigned to:
Priority: trivial Component: installer
Version: VirtualBox 1.6.2 Keywords: vboxnet
Cc: Guest type: other
Host type: other

Description

The vboxnet bash script fails to determine when an interface has been assigned to a group.

To recreate: Use VBoxAddIF to assign a new interface to a group according to the documentation.

The problem:

Around line 185 in the vboxnet script: 

185         case $user in
186 	            +*)
187 	                group=`echo $2 | cut -c2-`
188 	                cmd="VBoxTunctl -t $1 -g $group"

but $user is never set, so that path is never taken. line 185 should be changed to: 

case $2 in
