Ubuntu xenial64 on Vagrant

If you are getting errors similar to the ones below:

The following SSH command responded with a non-zero exit status.
Vagrant assumes that this means the command failed!

hostname -f

Stdout from the command:

Stderr from the command:

sudo: unable to resolve host ubuntu-xenial
mesg: ttyname failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device
hostname: Name or service not known

or

Vagrant was unable to mount VirtualBox shared folders. This is usually
because the filesystem "vboxsf" is not available. This filesystem is
made available via the VirtualBox Guest Additions and kernel module.
Please verify that these guest additions are properly installed in the
guest. This is not a bug in Vagrant and is usually caused by a faulty
Vagrant box. For context, the command attempted was:

mount -t vboxsf -o uid=1000,gid=1000 v-csc-78dab358b /tmp/vagrant-chef/1d140fd50fa8a0774caff0f697e00977/cookbooks

The error output from the command was:

mount: unknown filesystem type 'vboxsf'

And keep finding google results for these threads:

Here's a TLDR of what you probably need to do:

1. Upgrade Vagrant to at least 1.9.2.
2. Install vagrant-vbguest.

vagrant plugin vagrant-vbguest
