[Building Sakai] Best wat for a Mac Guy to get Oracle Test Instance to Test LTI 2.1

[Mike Jennings]

I have just downloaded the VirtualBox OVA form Oracle, Imported it, and 
everything seems to be working fine.

I did not have any issues with setting up Host Only Networking.  I just 
had to go into the VirtualBox Preferences and create a Host Only 
Network, then change the networking adapter on the virtual machine to 
Host Only and my network interface.

Then after I logged into the Oracle OVA a terminal came up showing me my 
ip address for that machine.  That ip address is what I could use from 
my host machine to ssh into the new one.

You could also use bridged mode support for all of this.  I have also 
found that VirtualBox has really improved over the years and there 
networking support is great.

Next off to see if I can setup Sakai on the Host and have it connect to 
the virtual machine.
