COMPLETE VM SecNet Instructions

Created Tuesday 15 September 2020

Here are the complete VM SecNet Instructions

Visit http://labs.cci.fsu.edu

Click "Virtual Machine Connection"

This MAY seamlessly open up to your RDP/Remote Desktop Program, especially if you are in windows. If not, it will download an "rdp" file, which is a simple text file containing an RDP configuration. You will need to find either the Mac version of Windows Remote Desktop, or a similar tool (e.g. Remmina) for Linux.

(more info here ../remotelabs-linux-2.pdf )

You may be presented with another login page for your RDP program BEFORE you get to "Virtual Machine Connection." Enter your FSUID, password — Domain will be: fsu.edu. If you already see the "Virtual Machine Connection" login page, skip this step.

At the Virtual Machine Connection Page, you'll see "Server" and "Virtual Machine" First, in Server, type SecNet - this will cause the "Virtual Machine" dropdown to populate — scroll down and choose your machine, Click OK.

(you can find your machine in CANVAS, under "Pages" -> "SecNet VM Assignments"

You should soon see a Xubuntu login area ("helpdesk" will probably be the user. Change this to "admin" and login with the password, given in the CANVAS ANNOUNCEMENT)

That should do it for getting in! You should see a basic desktop with a blue mouse menu in the upper left hand corner. (And a ghosty Floppy Disk icon, what year is it even?)

GO DO THE First Day Secnet Lab if you haven't already.
