I started with the tutorial today and this could trip up new users. Since precise's repos aren't up anymore its impossible to install updates from ubuntu or do much in the way of a normal ubuntu machine.

I imagine using the current it would be helpful for most users.

This project looks really cool so far!

@chrisroberts
Filter any machine_ip when preparing the NFS settings 
When preparing the NFS settings on VirtualBox the guest IP addresses
are pulled from VirtualBox directly and any static addresses are
pulled as well. This can lead to aquiring a host IP and machine IP
but results in a failure of NFS mount because the IPs are not on
the same network. This filters the machine IP result to validate
it is within the host adapter IP range.

Would the bento/ubuntu-16.04 box be a better choice than ubuntu/xenial64? I've heard that the latter doesn't follow all of the Vagrant box creation best practices...

Agreed. As per official Vagrant documentation (https://www.vagrantup.com/docs/boxes.html), the hashicorp and bento boxes are the only two officially-recommended box sets. Additionally, Vagrant says of ubuntu boxes:

These boxes only support Virtualbox and do not provide an ideal experience for most users. If you encounter issues with these boxes, please try the Bento boxes instead.

Thanks @edmorley, the bento/ubuntu-16.04 box is the way to go.

Hi all,

We are currently working on building and releasing a full set of HashiCorp supported vagrant boxes. These should be released soon so be on the lookout! I'm going to go ahead and close this though, thanks!
