Setting Up the PHX Development Environment on Ubuntu 24.04

Set up your Ansible development desktop with Ansible, Vagrant, LXD, and VirtualBox on Ubuntu 24.04. Clone the PHX project directories to extend the base C2 development environment. Use this setup to configure essential base services, including the Microsoft AD domain controller and reverse proxy. Finally, access web-based services in the environment via a Firefox profile using the forward proxy for sandboxed access.

Using Ansible without Vagrant

Vagrant is the default but you can also use Ansible directly if you prefer.
