Continuing from old box:

vagrant ssh

add missing packages

sudo apt-get install perl-doc tree

remove old act_developer

sudo user del act_developer
sudo rm -rf /home/act_developer

Add users:

adduser --disabled-password --gecos "Act Legacy"    legacy
adduser --disabled-password --gecos "Act Organiser" orga
adduser --disabled-password --gecos "Act Voyager"   voyager

edit the /etc/group and add users: (group numbers might be different)

sudo vim /etc/group
admin:x:110:vagrant,legacy,orga,voyager
actusers:x:1003:legacy,orga,voyager

setup .ssh

ssh-keyscan -t rsa github.com >> /home/vagrant/.ssh/known_hosts


FOR EACH USER:

export NEW_USER=legacy
export NEW_USER=orga
export NEW_USER=voyager

for NEW_USER in ‘legacy orga voyager’;
do
  sudo cp -R /home/vagrant/.ssh /home/$NEW_USER/
  sudo chown -R $NEW_USER /home/$NEW_USER/.ssh
  
  cat >>/home/$NEW_USER/.profile <<‘EOT’
  export ACT_HOME=/home/legacy/Act

done

END FOR EACH

logout
shutdown the machine
vagrant halt
edit the Vagrant file
Vagrantfile:
config.vm.synced_folder "./act/legacy",      "/home/legacy/Act",        create: true, group: "actusers", owner: "legacy"
config.vm.synced_folder "./act/conferences", "/home/orga/conferences",  create: true, group: "actusers", owner: "orga"
config.vm.synced_folder "./act/voyager",     "/home/voyager/Documents", create: true, group: "actusers", owner: "voyager"

reboot the machine
vagrant up

Check for IdentityFile
vagrant ssh-config
ssh-add ~/.vagrant.d/boxes/box-name/0/virtualbox/vagrant_private_key

install Act
ssh -p 2222 legacy@localhost

# export ACT_HOME=$HOME/Act

git clone https://github.com/book/Act.git $ACT_HOME
cd Act

remove unicode issue from META.yml - Builders do not like it or anywhere else
