    1616== A note about Virtual Machines and CPU core allocation ==
    1717
    18 The boss and users templates come configured to use 4 CPUs.  This is problematic on VMWare servers with less than 4 CPUs, since you can only give a VM up to as many cores as the ESXi host has.  If you are installing onto an ESXi host that has fewer than 4 CPUs, you will have to edit the number of allocated cores in the VM settings for boss and users before being able to boot them.

    20 === General FreeBSD Configuration ===
    21 
    22 You will want to configure your internet facing VM interfaces.  The main configuration file for FreeBSD is '''/etc/rc.conf''' and the configuration lines for the interfaces are near the top.  You might also want to configure '''/etc/resolv.conf''' for  initial setup (after setup, you will be using the DNS server on Boss).

    24 Configuring FreeBSD is beyond the scope of this documentation, but the [http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/ FreeBSD Handbook] is an excellent reference for most FreeBSD systems administration tasks.  Also, FreeBSD features very complete man pages.

    26 The default root password is 'deterinavm', make sure to change it!
