Sanbox is a ubuntu machine Steps on setting up this ubuntu Server are as follows

  1. Attach a usb cd drive and start the cd install.
  2. Create the root partition and a swap partition of 4 gigs (James can you please put the exact sizes you use).
  3. Setup the Network Interfaces
    eth0 - Goes into the DMZ network, so please modify the /etc/network/interfaces file to for eth0
    the ability to attain an ip address using dhcp.
    Please update the dhcpd.conf file with eth0 mac address for console.sbX
    eth1 - Is the ConsoleC address for sandbox.
    Please update /etc/network/interfaces to
    iface eth1 inet static
    address 10.1x.0.10 - (x) is the sandbox number
    netmask 255.255.0.0
  4. Please Install libpam-ldap,libnss-ldap,autofs and autofs-ldap packages using apt.
  5. Please modify /etc/ldap/ldap.conf to the following
    BASE dc=orbit-lab,dc=org
    URI ldap://ldap.orbit-lab.org
  6. You can copy /etc/ldap.conf from another sandbox or set the following attributes yourself

host ldap.orbit-lab.org
base dc=orbit-lab,dc=org
ldap_version 3
rootbinddn cn=admin,dc=orbit-lab,dc=org
timelimit 30
bind_timelimit 30
idle_timelimit 360
pam_check_host_attr yes
pam_password crypt
Copy the /etc/ldap.secret file from another sandbox or ask the administrator for the password.

  1. For autofs we need to modify /etc/default/autofs file so that the autofs daemon knows what the master map is.
    LDAPURI="ldap://ldap.orbit-lab.org/"
    LDAPBASE="ou=auto.master,dc=orbit-lab,dc=org"

Ensure that you start autofs
