VirtualBox 4.2.6 and VBoxHeadless VNC

Hey All,

I just upgraded VirtualBox to 4.2.6 on my headless dev server. I use VNC
with VBoxHeadless. After upgrading, I had to change the command-line
options I use for starting the VMs (which is totally fine). It seems that
now VNC is asking for a password, which I never set. Prior to upgrading,
VNC was passwordless. Attempting to connect with a blank password fails to
work as does "password". I'm not sure where to proceed from here. Anyone
know how to disable the password or what the default password is?

Thanks,

Shawn Webb
