Andre, thanks for the feedback.

I agree with you that the documentation could be improved. Do you want to take a crack at it and send me updated readme files. I will include them into 3.0.1.

As per you question re snapshot: login as the user you have defined in your config and take a snapshot.

The exl...if you search through the archive, I am sure you will find one. Also, if you read the paper on Capture-BAT, it may give you the info you are looking for.

Cheers,

Christian

Hello all,





Christian, I wanted to thank you again for the help you provided last week in getting my Capture-HPC box running.



My only feedback might be updating the documentation. Although it does provide general instructions on installation I think it could be more specific in what is the recommended requirements for those of us using Linux as the host OS. If a more defined standard was in place this would help out a lot. It was challenging to find a compatible Linux flavor (kernel version) that I could install VMWare 1.0.7. I’m using Fedora 8 and 9 – both running on the kernel versions from the install DVD. I wasted a couple days after realizin g updating the systems’ kernel would eliminate my chances of instal l.

When I’ve hammered out my setup of Capture I’d be more than willing to contribute what I’ve collected from my experiences with t he installation. I’m a n00b in this research too and I think it woul d be helpful as it will help this project expand.





I have a questions.

Snapshots:

I guessing if it really matters or not. Should the VM snapshots be taken at the logon screen or after? Silly question but I have to ask.



Exclusions (EXL Files)/Applications.conf

This one presents some challenges for me at the moment. I’m trying to get a better understanding of setting up these files and to reduc e or eliminate false positives during the site crawl. As an example my current VM has the following apps installed: Adobe Air, Adobe Ac robat, Adobe Flash Plugin, and Java 6 Update 15. Which of these will needs entries in the exl files and which will only need to be enter ed into the Applications.conf file? I’m guessing Adobe Acrobat will be enter in the Applications.conf since I’ve read that in the docum entation. I’m also confused by the syntax (+, -, \\) I need to use to enter into the each files. Can someone please provide an example of their current exl files or with an example in response to my ema il. Much appreciated. This has been quite a bit of a learning curve for me.
