In /var/log/messages I get the following

The instructions say that vboxd can only be used with inetd for which reason I
put the following in /etc/inetd.conf:
vboxd stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/vboxd
as per instructions.
I have
vbox version 2.0.0BETA5 (17-NOV-98)
and run RH7.2

I checked this out and tail vboxgetty-ttyI5.log gives
26-Oct 16:04:46 <D> Opening modem port "/dev/ttyI5"...
26-Oct 16:04:46 <F> Can't open modem port "/dev/ttyI5"
after /usr/sbin/vboxgetty -d /dev/ttyI5.
So that what it is. The modem port can't be opened. Then where do we go from
here?
