How the Hell do I get networking to work on a Ubuntu VM on Hyper-V in Windows 2008?
This is a question I have personally grappled with a few times. Although I was able to successfully install a Ubuntu 8.10 server on Hyper-V with networking over a year ago I forgot how it was done and pulled my hair out trying to figure it out again the other day. So I thought I’d jot down a few notes to help me remember. If this helps anyone else, that will be great too.
These instructions are for Ubuntu 9.10 server on Windows 2008 Hyper-V. As mentioned above this works for Ubuntu 8.10 server as well; and presumably other versions although I haven’t verified.
This contains some fairly detailed instructions so someone new to this setup should have enough info to get completely running. However, since I know some of you out there are in a hurry here’s the Cliff Notes version:
- Don’t use the default network adapter – DELETE it!
- Add a legacy network adapter.
- Install Ubuntu.
Full Instructions for Installing Ubuntu 9.10 Server on Windows 2008 Hyper-V
Download the Ubuntu 9.10 server ISO – get this started now so it will be done by the time your’re ready for it.
Step One: Create the VM on Hyper-V
- Launch the Windows Hyper-V Manager (Start, All Programs, Administrative Tools, Hyper-V Manager).
- Select New, Virtual Machine. Give it a name. Click Next.
- Specify memory (RAM). In this example I’m using 1024 MB.
- On the “Configure Networking” screen just click Next – we will delete this later anyway.
- Create a new virtual hard disk using the name, location and size of your choosing.
- On the “Installation Options” screen make sure to choose “Install and operating system later.”
- Click Next, verify your settings, then click Finish.
At this point if your VM started you will receive a boot failure message. Don’t worry, you can safely ignore this and Turn Off the VM.
Step Two: Customize VM Settings
- From the VM Window click File, Settings.
- Remove the current Network Adapter.
- Click Add Hardware and select Legacy Network Adapter, then Add.
- On the Legacy Network Adapter select the correct adapter from the Network drop-down list
- Click OK to save settings.
Step Three: Install Ubuntu
- Click Media, DVD Drive, Insert Disk and browse to your Ubuntu ISO.
- Start (Power On) the VM & it will begin the Ubuntu Server installation.
- Select your Language, then “Install Ubuntu Server.”
- Select your desired Country and keyboard layout.
- Enter your desired hostname, then continue.
- Select your timezone.
- Partition your disk using the default, “Guided – use entire disk and set up LVM.”
- Select your disk to partition – if you followed these instructions you will only have one.
- Select YES to write the changes to disks and configure LVM.
- Follow the prompts to setup users and passwords, creating at lease one user.
- Select whether or not to encrypt your home directory.
- If you have a DHCP server on your network your adapter should retrieve and IP address and associated info from that server. If not, you will be prompted for IP address settings.
- Choose how to manage upgrades on your system.
- Choose which software to install (note, depending on which option(s) you select additional questions will be asked during install which aren’t covered in this tutorial):
- Cloud computing cluster
- Cloud computing node
- DNS server
- LAMP server
- Mail server
- OpenSSH server – You may want to install this to connect via SSH later.
- PostgreSQL database
- Print server
- Samba file server
- Tomcat Java server
- Virtual Machine host
- Manual package selection
- At the “Finishing Installation” screen select Continue.
Step Four: Logon to Your Ubuntu Server
Now that your server is installed logon through the Virtual Machine Connection window to verify network settings and connectivity. Type ifconfig to view your network settings. You should have an interface, eth0, with either a DHCP-assigned address or the one you manually entered during installation.
You could verify correct network operation by pinging a know good host on your local network and/or a host on the Internet. In my case I pinged my default gateway and powercram.com. Both responded with replies.
Finally, now that my Ubuntu Server is setup and networking is configured properly I will probably never (hopefully) use the Virtual Machine Connection window again, rather I will use my favorite remote connection client, PuTTY.
Since I neglected to install Open-SSH Server during the Ubuntu installation I had to install it before I could use PuTTY using:
sudo apt-get install openssh-server
How to disable unnecessary services on Mac OS X based desktop / server / laptop.
Mac OS X uses the following directories to start various services:
- /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/ – System-wide daemons provided by Mac OS X
- /System/Library/LaunchAgents/ – Per-user agents provided by Mac OS X
- ~/Library/LaunchAgents/ – Per-user agents provided by the user
- /Library/LaunchAgents/ – Per-user agents provided by the administrator
- /Library/LaunchDaemons/ – System-wide daemons provided by the administrator.
launchd manages processes, both for the system as a whole and for individual users using .plist files. Open the terminal and type the following commands to view directory files:
cd /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/
ls -l
ls -l | less
OR
cd /System/Library/LaunchAgents/
ls -l
ls -l | less
Disable Unnecessary Services
Use the launchctl command as follows:
sudo launchctl unload -w /path/to/.plist/file
sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/file.plist
In this example, use the following to disable the Bonjour service:
sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.mDNSResponder.plist
sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.mDNSResponderHelper.plist
With millions of people texting regularly, it’s no wonder you’ve seen this cryptic looking code!
Commonly used wherever people get online — whether by text message, IM, SMS, email, cell phone, iPhone, Blackberry, PDA, etc. — and as seen on blogs, chat rooms, Web sites, games, and newsgroup postings — these abbreviations are used by people to correspond with each other. Acronyms are an integral part of computer culture. The use of acronyms grew rapidly on the Internet and created a new lingo, known as shorthand, online jargon and leetspeak.
Acronyms are often typed in ALL CAPS but it is not proper netiquette to type in ALL CAPS in general, in fact, it’s SHOUTING.
People with limited eyesight may use all caps to see the words better, but otherwise, TURN THE CAPS LOCK OFF.
Got a favorite one you don’t see here? Add your own lingo in the comments section!
Note: “C” and “S” are used interchangeably for “See” –and– “U” and “Y” are used interchangeably for “You”

Darwin Streaming Server (DSS), is the first open sourced RTP/RTSP streaming server. It was released March 16, 1999 and is a fully featured RTSP/RTP media streaming server capable of streaming a variety of media types including H.264/MPEG-4 AVC, MPEG-4 Part 2 and 3GP.
Developed by Apple, it is the open source equivalent of QuickTime Streaming Server, and is based on its code.
The initial DSS source code release compiled only on Mac OS X, but external developers quickly ported the code to Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris[1], Tru64 Unix, Mac OS 9 and Windows.
Source code is available as a release download or as development code via CVS.
Akamai uses DSS, exclusively, for streaming QuickTime and MPEG-4 content. The mobile version of the video sharing site YouTube uses DSS to stream its mobile videos in 3GP format using the H.263/AMR codec.
While sharing the same code base as QuickTime Streaming Server, Darwin Streaming Server is an open source project intended for developers who need to stream QuickTime and MPEG-4 media on alternative platforms such as Windows, Linux, and Solaris, or those developers who need to extend and/or modify the existing streaming server code to fit their needs. Darwin Streaming Server is only supported by the open source community and is not eligible for technical support from Apple. Apple hosts a number of email discussion lists for Darwin Streaming Server users and developers to share ideas and discuss deployment scenarios.
QuickTime Streaming Server (QTSS) is Apple’s commercial streaming server delivered as part of Mac OS X Server. QTSS provides users with enhanced administration and media management tools as a result of the tight integration with Mac OS X Server; these tools are not available as part of the open source project. Technical support is available for QTSS as part of the AppleCare support plans provided for Mac OS X Server and Xserve.
Both DSS and QTSS are built on a core server that provides state of the art quality of service features with Skip protection and Instant-On, and support for the latest digital media standards, MPEG-4 and 3GPP.
Darwin Streaming Server is available as a free download under the Apple Public Source License.
