Thank you very much for this! I upgraded your port to release 89:
http://www.frbsd.org/dist/vboxweb-r89.port.tar.bz2

A few questions/suggestions:
- at first launch, vboxweb downloads the rdpweb.swf component which is under
a PUEL licence. Are there any free alternatives that you know of, apart from
disabling the relevant lines in the sourcecode in order to remain fully open
source?
- for those who don't like the initial connection to google.com, here's a
quick&dirty patch:
http://www.frbsd.org/dist/vboxweb-r89.patch-aa
- and finally why don't you commit your port to the ports tree?

Best regards,

Hubert
