Hi Geoff,

It looks like this is missing (at least in the .deb package) and the
init script will not start vboxwebsrv unless VBOXWEB_USER is set.
Create /etc/default/virtualbox with the following contents:

#VBOXWEB_USER=
#VBOXWEB_HOST=
#VBOXWEB_PORT=
#VBOXWEB_TIMEOUT=
#VBOXWEB_CHECK_INTERVAL=
#VBOXWEB_THREADS=
#VBOXWEB_KEEPALIVE=
#VBOXWEB_LOGFILE=

Uncomment (remove the '#') and place something directly after the '='
to specify a setting. From what I can see, the only required setting
is VBOXWEB_USER. E.g.

VBOXWEB_USER=vbox
