Razorback is a framework for an intelligence driven security solution. It consists of a large number of components and dependencies that make the barrier to deployment quiet large for the uninitiated. This talk aims to shed some light on the process of creating a virtual appliance that enabled us to reduce the barrier for people that want to test the system. Lowering the barrier to entry for a complex project is key for improving deployment of your project, by building a virtual appliance you can cut the setup time from over a day to just a few minutes. This tutorial aims to cover setting up a VM build environment that will allow you to create custom virtual appliances for you projects that are easy for people to deploy. We will cover: * Setting up the build host for PXE based installation of the appliance. * Tuning the installer to install only the components that we need to the vm to function. * Deploying tinderbox to build the systems dependencies. * Installing the dependencies via the installer * Deploying freebsdadmin on the VM to provide a management interface. * Customizing the base freebsdadmin package. * Adding custom applications to freebsdadmin to manage your application. The aim is provide a hands on experience so attendees should bring a laptop capable of running 2 small FreeBSD virtual machines. Attendees should also have some basic FreeBSD systems administration experience. By the end of the session attendees should have a firm grasp on the process of creating a virtual appliance using the freebsdadmin project as the management interface.
