Re: VPS for Pen Test

["Phil Frederick" <flosofl () gmail com>]

I am unsure of what "VPS" stands for (I suppose I could google), but I
use VMWare all the time to test tools, exploits, proof-of-concept
code, etc...  Of course VMWare is only good for x86 based OS so
testing things like z390s and AIX boxes wouldn't work here.

I usually have snapshots of different states.  That way I can play
around with whatever and not worry about destroying my VM images
inadvertantly.  With a snapshot, I simply reset the VM back to its
original state.
