Install

To be able to access the ipa interface at https://classroom.example.com you will need to modify your hosts file:

On Linux

echo '172.25.0.254 classroom.example.com classroom' >> /etc/hosts

Or else access it via the GUI on the VM desktop.example.com

Edit the Vagrantfile and modify config.vm.box.

Also the following environment variables can be set instead of editing the Vagrantfile: VBOX_VM_PATH, LIBVIRT_STORAGE_POOL

CentOS version:

cd rhel-lab
vagrant up

On Windows

Edit hosts file as seen here.
