  <title>Post Installation Configuration</title>
  
  <body>
    <p>
        Normally there is no post installation configuration of
        <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/> components required. However, on Oracle Solaris
        and Linux hosts it is necessary to configure the proper
        permissions for users executing VMs and who should be able to
        access certain host resources. For instance, Linux users must be
        member of the <i>vboxusers</i> group to be able to
        pass USB devices to a guest. If a serial host interface should
        be accessed from a VM, the proper permissions must be granted to
        the user to be able to access that device. The same applies to
        other resources like raw partitions, DVD/CD drives, and sound
        devices.
