# πŸ—ΊοΈ Alpine Linux Admin Lab > Your personal Linux lab on Proxmox with 3 Alpine VMs ## πŸ–₯️ Lab Setup | VM | IP | Network | Access | |----|-----|---------|--------| | **alpine-hop** πŸ§‘β€πŸ’» | `192.168.11.171` / `10.0.1.3` | vmbr0 + vmbr1 | You + Me | | **alpine-1** πŸ–₯️ | `10.0.1.1` | vmbr1 (isolated) | Via hop only | | **alpine-2** πŸ–₯️ | `10.0.1.2` | vmbr1 (isolated) | Via hop only | ## πŸ”‘ Quick SSH ```bash ssh root@192.168.11.171 # β†’ alpine-hop (password: Midori) # from hop: ssh root@10.0.1.1 # β†’ alpine-1 ssh root@10.0.1.2 # β†’ alpine-2 ``` ## πŸ“š Phases 1. [[Phase 1 - Walking]] β€” Basic commands, file system, navigation 2. [[Phase 2 - Networking]] β€” Ping, SSH, file transfer 3. [[Phase 3 - Users and Files]] β€” Users, groups, permissions 4. [[Phase 4 - Security]] β€” Firewall, logging, hardening 5. [[Phase 5 - Server Stuff]] β€” Web server, NFS, file sharing 6. [[Phase 6 - Automation]] β€” Shell scripts, cron, awk/sed ## πŸ’‘ Tips - Break stuff on purpose! Use `phase1-ready` snapshot to restore - Ask Midori to verify your work at any time - Take your own snapshots before big experiments
