There are 2 network interfaces:
- eth0 which is a DHCP address so that a connection can be made from the host computer (your laptop). In this case the IP is 10.0.0.20. Example, to connect to the local VM use: ssh root@10.0.0.20
- eth1 which is a fixed IP address. This is used to connect between the source and target servers. This IP is 10.1.1.10
7. scp (secure copy) does not work because there is display output in ~oracle/.bashrc and ~oracle/.bash_profile. To fix this:
a. Edit .bashrc in the home directory of oracle
| No Format |
|---|
cd ~oracle |
| No Format |
|---|
vi .bashrc |
Put a # in front of the following lines:
| No Format |
|---|
#cat ~/Desktop/README.txt
#/sbin/ifconfig | grep "inet addr" |
b. Edit .bash_profile in the home directory of oracle
| No Format |
|---|
cd ~oracle
|
| No Format |
|---|
vi .bash_profile |
Put a # in front of the following lines:
...
When the machine_setup script has been edited to accept the EULA and the memory parameter adjusted, execute the script. The script takes about 5-10 minutes to execute depending on your host PC. When the script finishes, both the source and target machines should be running and available to log into.
| Note |
|---|
Before running the machine_setup script ensure that these two steps have been completed:
|
What the script does
Imports the source and target machines into VirtualBox, sets up the Host-only adapter in the network settings, sets up the shared folder drive, sets the snapshot folder and snapshot the machine as a fresh clean starting position that can be returned to if required. The machine_setup scrip will then start both source and target machines.
On Windows
In the %REP_HOME%\Rep Attack 11g XE directory, execute the machine_setup.bat script by double clicking on it. A command prompt window will open and the RepAttack source machine will be configured and started, followed by the target machine.
For example:
On Mac OS X and Linux machines:
Open a Terminal window and change directory to the REP_HOME directory.
Execute the machine_setup.bash script.
