Vagrant to spin up machines?

Boeller666 commented 5 years ago

Hi,

will it be possible to provide a Vagrantfile to spin up and down the whole infrastructure without downloading the VirtualBox-Zips?

Would be nice, as I also have problems with these machines (Ubuntu-c e.g. don't want to update itself)

Hi @Boeller666

Excellent suggestion. I will work on this as an enhancement. If anyone wants to contribute I would also welcome contributions here.

Would you flag the update issues for me that you're seeing as a separate issue, would also like to get to the bottom of this and if necessary, push an update for the VM's.

Many Thanks

James

My update issue could be solved by disabling ipv6... seems to be an issue with my machine or network configuration.

thx anyway, René

Hi @Boeller666

I have pushed up new versions of the Virtual Machines. I think that the motd that comes with the stock Ubuntu hasn't helped here, as really, there shouldn't be a need to update the VM for the purposes of the course (unless the user, implicitly wants to do so). Could you when you have a moment, please try the new VM's, details are here -

If you do get a networking issue with ipv6 again, if you could shed some light, I'll put more context on the main page. Closing the issue for now.

Many Thanks

James
