available to others users a virtual machine


I am using ubuntu 7.10.
I have installed the virtualbox in my login and I have created a virtual machine.
How can I let this virtual machine available to the others users that log in my computer?

I can see that the directory of Virtual box is:
/home/me/.VirtualBox$

When the "user1" log in and run virtualbox, it can't see the virtual machine that user "me" there was created.

Add them to the vboxusers group and they will need write access to your /home/me path.
