Install and SSH to Ubuntu Server on VirtualBox
This tutorial on the Treehouse blog will help you set up a virtual production server for testing out various deployment scenarios. The post will walk you through setting up a virtual machine on VirtualBox running Ubuntu Server (a common OS for Rails production deployments). Then, you’ll learn how to set up port forwarding so you can SSH from your development system into the virtual server.

Someone reported this post with our new reporting system. I imagine due to it being considered offtopic? In this case, I’m going to leave the post as it does have some relevance to Rubyists although not specifically so, but also because Jay has contributed good posts numerous times.
I’ll assert that it’s relevant because I actually created it for the explicit purpose of testing Rails deployments. Thanks for the vote of confidence, Peter! That said, I will try to restrict it to links that more directly involve Ruby/Rails in the future.
