<li>As you proceed throughout this lab, you will be required to fill in the comparison chart for the remaining 3 virtual machines that you will be installing.</li>

</ol>

=== Part 2: Installing from a Downloaded Image (Centos7 LIVE CD) ===

<li>Find out the IP address of your virtual machine and the name of your Ethernet network adaptor: <b><code><span style="color:#3366CC;font-size:1.2em;">ifconfig</span></code></b> </li>

<li>Enter the following command on your virtual machine to create a firewall exception to allow ssh traffic into the machine:<br /> <b><code><span style="color:#3366CC;font-size:1.2em;">iptables -I INPUT -p tcp -s0/0 -d0/0 --dport 22 -j ACCEPT</span></code></b></li><li>If you are logged in as root, logout to your regular user account.</li><li>Confirm that you can ssh to your virtual machine from the host (your main CentOS installation): <b><code><span style="color:#3366CC;font-size:1.2em;">ssh regularuserid@IPaddress</span></code></b> (where '''regularuserid''' is your regular user login id, and '''IPaddress''' is the '''IP_ADDRESS''' of your '''centos1''' VM!).</li><li>Make certain to '''disable SELinux for centos1''' (refer to lab1)</li><li>Adjust your screen-saver settings and run a '''yum update''' on your centos1 VM before proceeding to ''Part 2''</li></ol>

=== Part 3: Installing from a Network ===

# Repeat the steps as you did to '''start the SSH service''', '''set iptables to accept connections via ssh''', '''test connections between centos2 and centos1''', and '''disable SELinux''' (refer to lab1).

# Record the time taken to install, and compare this to the time taken by the previous installations. Record your findings in the Installation Comparison chart in lab2 logbook.

=== Part 4: Installing from a Network using a Kickstart File ===
