     3== Server Templates ==
    34There are three VMWare templates available at http://deterlab.net/~jjh/ for Boss, Users, and Router nodes.  These images don't contain the DETER source, but do have all packages required package to build the testbed source.

    5 = Special VMWare settings =
     6=== General FreeBSD Configuration ===
     7
     8You 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).
     9
     10Configuring 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.

     12=== Users Image Notes ===
     13
     14The users image contains two disk images.  One is for the main operating system and the other is for NFS exported filesystems.  These are
     15kept separate in order to make it easy for sites to deploy a bigger NFS export filesystem.

     23=== Router Image Notes ===
