1 | Installing a test scripts server on XVM |
---|
2 | ======================================= |
---|
3 | |
---|
4 | It's useful to have a less secure scripts server for testing |
---|
5 | purposes. Here's what you have to do: |
---|
6 | |
---|
7 | 1. Creating the VM |
---|
8 | ------------------ |
---|
9 | |
---|
10 | To authenticate to xvm.mit.edu with root tickets, you need |
---|
11 | a browser that suppors SPNEGO; Firefox is one such browser and |
---|
12 | the following instructions will assume it. Browse to about:config |
---|
13 | and modify the key 'network.negotiate-auth.trusted-uris' to be |
---|
14 | |
---|
15 | https://xvm.mit.edu:442/* |
---|
16 | |
---|
17 | Then, with active root tickets on your system, navigate to |
---|
18 | |
---|
19 | https://xvm.mit.edu:442/ |
---|
20 | |
---|
21 | You should be logged in as root, and if you are on scripts-root |
---|
22 | you should be able to assign ownership to scripts. |
---|
23 | |
---|
24 | [XXX: there should be a way to do this with remctl too] |
---|
25 | |
---|
26 | 2. Spin up |
---|
27 | ---------- |
---|
28 | |
---|
29 | These instructions are mostly the same as the latter part of |
---|
30 | install-fedora, with the following changes: |
---|
31 | |
---|
32 | VNC |
---|
33 | --- |
---|
34 | |
---|
35 | You will not need to sketchily forward VNC, because XVM has a built |
---|
36 | in VNC console. |
---|
37 | |
---|
38 | Password |
---|
39 | -------- |
---|
40 | |
---|
41 | Do NOT use the scripts-root password. Pick something else. |
---|
42 | |
---|
43 | Disks |
---|
44 | ----- |
---|
45 | |
---|
46 | The standard Scripts setup has separate LVM partitions for root and |
---|
47 | swap, as well as a non-LVM partition for boot. You will not have this |
---|
48 | for XVM, so the Fedora defaults mostly work. Don't use ext4 though. |
