Setup Guide

After you've gotten the Mallory Minimal VM Image downloaded, you can run the update script (see below).

This script runs in 3 phases:

Phase 0

Prompts you to configure the network before continuing.

Phase 1

Updates the OS with the current patches from Ubuntu. You will be prompted to reboot the VM after phase 1 has completed. Once you've done so, make sure you configure the network interface again, then re-run the update script to continue the update process.

Phase 2

This phase does quite a lot, and will take some time to finish. Included in what this phase does is the following:

• Move the Mallory installation to a user specified directory
• Download the latest Mallory code from the BitBucket repository
• Install all the dependencies required by Mallory
• Install XOrg and the OpenBox window manager

Running the Mallory GUI

After you've run the script, you can start the Mallory GUI by doing the following:

• Execute the `` command to run XOrg and the OpenBox Window Manager
• Right click on the Desktop to bring up a command menu
• Select 'Terminal Emulator'
• Repeat the previous step to bring up a second terminal window
• In one of the terminal windows, change to the Mallory src directory: ``
• Run the main mallory process: ``
• In the second terminal window, change to the Mallory src directory: ``
• Chown the mallory.log file so that it's owned by the current user: ``
• Run the mallory gui: ``
