OPS245 Assignment 2

!!!THE ASSIGNMENT IS NOT READY YET!!!

In this assignment you'll practice some of the skills you've learned in the course to build a simple web server. It won't look fancy but you'll only be a couple of steps away from being ab;e to deploy a modern web application.

• Set up a new Debian virtual machine, call it asg2 and give it the hostname asg2. Do a minimal installtion, with no GUI. All your assignment will be done in this new virtual machine.
  • Make sure the asg2 VM is set up to use LVM.
  • Create a regular user with the same username as your Seneca username.
  • Set it to use the static IP address 10.2.45.14
• Add a 1GB drive to the VM.
• Use the entire drive as a physical volume, add it to the volume group you already have.
• Create a logical volume named lv_web, formatted as ext4.
• Set up your system so that lv_web is mounted automatically onto the /var/www directory when the system boos.
• Install Apache. It will be easier for you if you install it after the lv_web volume is mounted.
• Configure the workstation so that it will convert the hostname asg2 into the IP address 10.2.45.14
• Use Firefox in your workstation VM to confirm that you can see the default webpage on http://asg2
• Add a second network adapter to the asg2 VM so that you can more easily access it from the host. Make it connect to the host-only network.
• Check in the Host Network Manager that 192.168.56.14 is an IP address within its range, and it is not in the DHCP pool. You may use a different IP address if this IP address won't fit in your network.
• Configure the second network interface on asg2 with the static IP 192.168.56.14.
  • Make sure that the network interface is brought up automatically when the VM boots.
