Just downloaded virtualbox v1.6 to run win2k for checkpoint secureclient. Unfortunately the configuration requires virtual machine to have a host direct connection; this fails as /usr/lib/vna is not available.

Sun offer VirtualBox for Solaris 10 for download, but the package you download for Solaris 10 is precisely the same as the package you download for OpenSolaris. Same MD5 hash.
As it relies on libraries only present in OpenSolaris (eg libdlpi) it simply will not work on Solaris 10.
This is a great shame.
OTOH it made me upgrade my box to OpenSolaris 2008.05 and VirtualBox is running quite happily now :-)

Would it be possible to add the necessary components via the software companion cd?

Read the user manual, especially the note about Solaris 10 on page 24.
