============================================================================== Cloonix is an AGPLv3 software that constitute a tool to create networks of kvm virtual machines or crun, and podman containers. The network connecting the virtual machines and containers is created through the use of the openvswitch software running inside a net namespace so that your host is not polluted with bridges and "ip addr" on your host shows clean results. The openvswitch commands are simplified by cloonix which provides a very simple user interface to connect virtual machines and containers through virtual lans. Cloonix provides root access pseudo-ssh and pseudo-scp (ssh and scp equivalent) for every virtual machines or containers without use of any ip interface inside the virtual machines or container. Cloonix provides a graphical interactive canvas showing the topology for your network. Building of the binaries is done on a debian bookworm and all the necessary files and libraries are collected and put into an autonomous bundle, this makes the bundle self-contained. No added files or packages are necessary. See clownix.net for a documentation (which is usually not up to date). http://clownix.net/doc_stored/build-34-00/html/index.html doc. NOTE: qemu-guest-agent sometimes called qemu-ga has to be installed inside the kvm guests virtual machines to have the pseudo-ssh and pseudo-scp. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- DOWNLOADS: http://clownix.net/downloads/cloonix-34 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- INSTALL BINARY AND LIBRARIES ON YOUR HOST wget http://clownix.net/downloads/cloonix-34/cloonix-bundle-34-00.tar.gz tar xvf cloonix-bundle-34-00.tar.gz cd cloonix-bundle-34-00 sudo ./install_cloonix ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- TO UNINSTALL: rm -f /usr/bin/cloonix_* rm -rf /usr/libexec/cloonix rm -rf /var/lib/cloonix ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- GET A WORKING QCOW AND PUT IT IN BULK TO TEST KVM: mkdir -p /var/lib/cloonix/bulk cd /var/lib/cloonix/bulk wget http://clownix.net/downloads/cloonix-34/bulk/bookworm.qcow2.gz gunzip bookworm.qcow2.gz ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- GET A WORKING ZIP AND PUT IT IN BULK TO TEST CRUN: mkdir -p /var/lib/cloonix/bulk cd /var/lib/cloonix/bulk wget http://clownix.net/downloads/cloonix-34/bulk/busybox.zip ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- LAUNCH TEST PINGS: cd cloonix-bundle-34-00 ./ping_kvm.sh On the gui, a double-click on the blue machine gives a shell, a double-click on the green interface gives a wireshark spy, a right-click on the blue machine gives a spice desktop. ./ping_cnt.sh On the gui, a double-click on the blue machine gives a shell, a double-click on the green interface gives a wireshark spy. ==============================================================================
