SSH for Windows
At the moment I use this vagrant box that is based on Stefan Scherers repo that itself is a fork of Joe Fitzgerald repos (that looks to be a vagrant/ packer legend). The problem is, that Stefan removed SSH completely, while adding some cool new features. So I am currently trying to get SSH back. Here is what I tried:
bento
- Windows Server Datacenter French Edition
- Can I **completely** automate the provisioning of Debian servers/laptops?
- Get RHEL installation source
-
Lightweight Debian based box
The github page has packer templates that you can modify to make your own custom boxes.

Looking for CI/CD practice for home
I've previously used Hashicorp Packer configs in a private git repo (based on the 'chef bento' configs used for many standard Vagrant boxes) that can build template server images for and then deploy a complete fully unattended CI pipeline from scratch, using nothing more than Apache Subversion (built into CentOS and RHEL but also has an excellent Windows version!) and Jenkins. Takes under 15 mins to provision both and can be tested locally (and completely offline!) in Virtualbox as it uses a limited amount of resources. I developed the solution for a rather risk averse client that required a cheap and easy reusable centrally managed CI pipeline that could handle larger sources than git by default and be built from artefacts on a private 'air-gapped and sheep-dipped' LAN with verified SHA256 hashes for all vendor binaries.
