  • Now you should be ready to start the VM. So start it up.
  • You may want to login through an external SSH client. ( like putty or securecrt etc)
    • NOTE: The virtualbox ssh client cant copy/paste because the Virtual Box Guest Additions (vm client tools) have not been loaded into the OS by default.
    • Note, you might need to disable authn in your ssh client for anything not user/pass
  • Login, grouper/grouper, type ifconfig, get the ip address of enp0s3
  • Follow instructions in the README.md ( located at /home/grouper/README.md  See the file for details for the following sections.)

    • Optional: Config HTTPS/SSL
      • If you want to you can provided a proper SSL cert for the VM by following this part of the instructions. 
    • Agree to the Oracle JDK ToS ( by editing the file install_oracle_jdk.sh  NOTE: This file is executed as part of the next step, so just edit it here.)
