Obtaining The Appliance
Direct Download
Hosting has been graciously provided by SuperToxic networks. Please use their mirror. The origin mirror will direct download from one of the home machines of the OVA's author, and will be extremely slow.

Origin Mirror (1.0mbps)
BitTorrent Download (Preferred)
The author of this image is taking steps to enable a strong download network via the BitTorrent protocol. As such, it is the preferred method of download. Please take advantage of this network where possible, and if possible, please make sure to seed the image thoroughly.
Using The Appliance
Networking Information
You will need to configure eth1 to your specifications. Apache is already set up to listen on port 80, and syslog-ng is listening on TCP/UDP port 514.
Importing into VMware
Simply open the OVA in VMware and follow the guided directions. From there, set up networking as you would any other virtual machine, and you're good to go!
