My last KVM blog entry showed how to install all the prereqs and do the initial install of the virtual machine to host your IDS toy instances.

To really start playing we'll need networking of course.
I'm not going into the details explaining every single line of config, much better explanations are already written on the web. But I'll try to give a reasonable overview.

To connect the VMs both to the outer world and between themselves we'll need a kind of virtual switch running on host machine and "wire" network interfaces in VMs to it.
We'll use virtual TUN/TAP network interface and promote it to the virtual switch using VDE utility.

Hello,

I just found this article that mentions that Informix will be distributed as a Debian (.deb) distribution. The article indicates that this would allow a quick and easy install of Informix software on the increasingly popular Ubuntu server operating system.

I think this sounds like good news!
