'''Your task:''' set up cron to make automatic backups of the /etc directory from vm1, vm2, and vm3 into /backup/vm1, /backup/vm2, and /backup/vm3. These should run every hour and overwrite the previous backup. Which makes them lousy backups but they're better than nothing.
 
= Completing the lab =
 
* Each of your VMs should now boot to a command prompt (no graphical interface), and should be using a static IP address.
* Each of your VMs should have a working network connection and a static IP address.
* Each of your VMs should have an SSH server running.
* You should be able to ssh from your host to each VM as the root user without a password.
* Backups of the three VMs' /etc/ directories are made automatically in the host.
