How to import a pre-installed virtual machine

1. Download an image from https://zeus-files.mpp.mpg.de/software/images. It is recommended to download the newest version. The files have size of 4-6Gb, so at leas the same amnount of disk space is needed.
2. Open the Virtual Box.
3. Import the image. See a video how to do that on Linux. The way to do it on Windows and Mac is very similar.
4. The username/password pairs are stored on the DVD disk in ks.conf file.

   root	DPHEP
   zeus	zeusdp
   hone	honedp
   jade	jadedp
   opal	opaldp

   Note, the machine is accessible via ssh from the same machine where the Virtual Box is running. On the Linux or Mac machine it can be acessed with:

   ssh localhost -l zeus -X -p 10000 -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null

   On the Windows you can use Putty SSH agent and login to 127.0.0.1 on port 10000 with username zeus. Please, note, that X forwarding will not work on Windows, unless you have X Window system installed (e.g. XWin32).
