Linux Template VMs

A template VM is available for you at: https://classes.csse.rose-hulman.edu/csse14x/

Working with the debian-template VM

This is a lightweight VM capable of being uploaded to TryHackMe.

Usage:

• Import it into VirtualBox or VMware Workstation.

• Next, login with username minion and password kingbob.

• The root user password is also kingbob. It may be beneficial to use su for some work.

• ssh is enabled for the minion account. Use it to set up the VM but be sure to disable it before production use.

Important! Before uploading this to THM, disable the SSH server.

systemctl disable sshd

Docker Config

This VM has Docker pre-installed. Make sure you run the container mode in detached (-d) mode and tell it to restart itself always.

docker run -d --restart always

For example, to have it run the tenders container, log in as root and then run:

docker run -d --restart always -p 80:3000 henthornlab/tenders

and then

systemctl disable sshd

The VM now only exposes port 80 and is ready to be uploaded to THM.
