## A2SERVER
To set up A2SERVER, follow these steps:
2015-10-28 02:53:30 +00:00
* Download and install [VirtualBox][1]. It's free. (If you prefer different
2015-10-23 07:34:35 +00:00
virtual machine software, [you can instead use the A2SERVER installer
script](a2server_installer.md).)
* Download the [A2SERVER virtual machine](files/A2SERVER.ova) (~750 MB), or
the [A2SERVER+A2CLOUD virtual machine](files/A2SERVER_A2CLOUD.ova) (~1.7
GB).
2015-10-28 02:53:30 +00:00
* Open VirtualBox, and choose "Import Appliance..." from the File menu.
2015-10-23 07:34:35 +00:00
Select the file you downloaded (A2SERVER.ova).
2015-10-28 02:53:30 +00:00
* Leave the "Reinitialize the MAC address of all network cards" box
2015-10-23 07:34:35 +00:00
unchecked. Click Import.
2015-10-28 02:53:30 +00:00
* When it's done importing, click A2SERVER, then click Settings, then click
2015-10-23 07:34:35 +00:00
Network.
2015-10-28 02:53:30 +00:00
* Ensure that "Attached To:" is set to "Bridged Adapter".
2015-10-23 07:34:35 +00:00
2015-10-28 02:53:30 +00:00
* Set "Name:" to a _wired_ network interface on your computer. If you don't
have one, use a USB-to-Ethernet adapter. (A2SERVER won't work over Wi-Fi in
2015-10-23 07:34:35 +00:00
a virtual machine.)
* Click OK.
2015-10-28 02:53:30 +00:00
You're all set up. For next steps, check out the links on the [A2SERVER home
2015-10-23 07:34:35 +00:00
