Bug Description

there is a need to include easier and faster way to make TAP bridges for VIRTUAL BOX.
I think about 1 to 10 TAP bridges. I think that also good idea is to put VBOX user as deafault users (because now Virtual Box install and setup is too much difficult).

yes , it is still unsolved ... more default users in generic Ubuntu install makes setting VM very simple. Also adding one TAP script ( I can send my) in default installation helps with this difficult process.

Perhaps my vboxcontrol script can be of help. It sets up the required tap interfaces and bridge configuration automatically, and starts up enabled VM's on boot. Check http://farfewertoes.com/code/vboxcontrol/ for more information.
