install virtualbox, vagrant on Ubuntu 14.04

Reference

https://docs.vagrantup.com/v2/

http://www.olindata.com/blog/2014/07/installing-vagrant-and-virtual-box-ubuntu-1404-lts

1. install virtualbox and vagrant over apt-get.

# apt-get install virtualbox # apt-get install vagrant # /etc/init.d/virtualbox status VirtualBox kernel modules are loaded. # lsmod | grep vbox vboxpci                23194  0 vboxnetadp             25670  0 vboxnetflt             27613  0 vboxdrv               339502  3 vboxnetadp,vboxnetflt,vboxpci # virtualbox --help Oracle VM VirtualBox Manager 4.3.10_Ubuntu # dpkg-query -L virtualbox /. /etc /etc/default /etc/default/virtualbox /etc/init.d /etc/init.d/virtualbox /lib /lib/udev /lib/udev/rules.d /lib/udev/rules.d/40-virtualbox.rules /lib/udev/VBoxCreateUSBNode.sh

2.  add a box image

# vagrant box add centos7-64 https://github.com/holms/vagrant-centos7-box/releases/download/7.1.1503.001/CentOS-7.1.1503-x86_64-netboot.box Downloading box from URL: https://github.com/holms/vagrant-centos7-box/releases/download/7.1.1503.001/CentOS-7.1.1503-x86_64-netboot.box Extracting box...te: 3288k/s, Estimated time remaining: --:--:--) Successfully added box 'centos7-64' with provider 'virtualbox'!

list a box

# vagrant box list centos7-64 (virtualbox) # vagrant box list -i centos7-64 (virtualbox)  - url: https://github.com/holms/vagrant-centos7-box/releases/download/7.1.1503.001/CentOS-7.1.1503-x86_64-netboot.box  - downloaded_at: 2015-05-27 17:07:02 UTC

3.  set up a project

make a directory for the project and initialize an environment.

# mkdir vagrant_project01 # cd vagrant_project01/ root@ubuntu:~/vagrant_project01# vagrant init A `Vagrantfile` has been placed in this directory. You are now ready to `vagrant up` your first virtual environment! Please read the comments in the Vagrantfile as well as documentation on `vagrantup.com` for more information on using Vagrant. root@ubuntu:~/vagrant_project01# grep -v '#' Vagrantfile | grep -v ^$ VAGRANTFILE_API_VERSION = "2" Vagrant.configure(VAGRANTFILE_API_VERSION) do |config|  config.vm.box = "base" end

edit Vagrantfile to use the box ( CentOS7 ) which I added.

# grep -v '#' Vagrantfile | grep -v ^$ VAGRANTFILE_API_VERSION = "2" Vagrant.configure(VAGRANTFILE_API_VERSION) do |config|  config.vm.box = "centos7-64" end

4. start the VM and connect to that over SSH

start the VM

connect to the VM.

# vagrant ssh Welcome to your Vagrant-built virtual machine. [vagrant@localhost ~]$ cat /etc/centos-release CentOS Linux release 7.1.1503 (Core) [vagrant@localhost ~]$

shutdown the VM.

# vagrant halt [default] Attempting graceful shutdown of VM...

Here are trial and error logs when installing metasploit on Ubuntu 14.04.

Googling this error, this seems to be caused if there are failed links in apt repositories.

check failed links

disable those repositories.

I disabled those by editing /etc/apt/sources.list

install ruby again.

configure WIFI via /etc/network/interfaces on Ubuntu 14.04

Reference

https://wiki.debian.org/WiFi/HowToUse#How_to_use_a_WiFi_interface

Here are logs when configuring WIFI via /etc/network/interfaces.

PC model name : HP Pavilion Desktop PC e9360jp/CT

USB WIFI adapter : Buffalo WLI-UC-GNM

OS automatically recognized this USB adapter without installing a driver in my environment, which depends on a USB adapter and/or PC model.

Here is an output of “lsusb” after inserting the USB adapter on my PC.

# lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS Release: 14.04 Codename: trusty # uname -ri 3.13.0-48-generic x86_64 # lsusb Bus 002 Device 005: ID 0bda:0152 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. Mass Storage Device Bus 002 Device 004: ID 0411:01a2 BUFFALO INC. (formerly MelCo., Inc.) WLI-UC-GNM Wireless LAN Adapter [Ralink RT8070] Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

[ configure WIFI via /etc/network/interfaces ]

I have used WPA2-PSK for an authentication.

Before editing /etc/network/interfaces, generate a WPA PSK from an ASCII passphrase.

# wpa_passphrase essid password network={ ssid="essid" #psk="password" psk=6b7a04357a1882e7dad358f1ec8f5e8440fbb21e1cc49a3f11e75776bded686d }

Then edit /etc/network/interfaces

auto wlan0 iface wlan0 inet dhcp    wpa-ssid essid    wpa-psk 6b7a04357a1882e7dad358f1ec8f5e8440fbb21e1cc49a3f11e75776bded686d

Finally down and up wlan0 to obtain an IP from DHCP server.

# ifdown wlan0 # ifup wlan0
