    Hi there!
    I just found the virtualbox module for webmin.  It looks very powerful. 
    The only problem I have is, under default configuration and since I login to webmin as root, all VMs and related resources, are related to root.
    I use my virtualbox VMs as a non-root user.

    How should I setup webmin or the virtualbox module to allow non-root user VM control, etc?
    Is there any possible configuration for UserMin?

    Hi

    The VBox Manage Module is developed and testet under "Webmin" and not "Usermin". Please see under "Module config" on the Top the "Used User Mode". Here you can use "root only" (It shows only the VM under root) or "Multi User" (Shows all VMs).
    For Multi User Mode you must configure your system for su. Please see the setupinstruction for Multi User Mode on Help..

    BR Andreas
