+# Kali Linux VM Setup
+
+## Background
+For this course, I will utilize a kali linux virtual machine, by means of the VirtualBox Pre-built VM provided by kali. I choose this approach because I am already familiar with VirtualBox and I already have a kali VM's running successfully by these means (for a prior course) on both my linux laptop and linux desktop hosts.

+
+## Configure
+
+I've run the following instructions to bring things up to date
+```
+$ sudo apt update
+$ sudo apt upgrade -y
+```
+_updates went smoothly and did not produce an interesting output_
+
+Now I've run the setup script as suggested.
+```
+$ curl -LO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dkmcgrath/courses/main/netsec/setup.sh
+$ chmod +x setup.sh
+$ ./setup.sh
+```
