First Steps with Next Thing CHIP

I've installed the commandline only configuration, basically because I am thinking only in do IOT things with this stuff.

Login and change default password

Default username and password:

username: chip
password: chip

The first thing I did is change the default password for the chip user and the root user.

$ passwd chip
$ sudo su 
$ passwd 

Connect to wifi

I want to make an static, permanent wifi connection. To do so, I've copied the configuration of my raspberry pi, but with a new IP.

I've started by editing a new wlan1 file:

$ sudo vi /etc/network/interfaces.d/wlan1

And added the following configuration:

#
# Wifi configuration
#

auto wlan1
allow-hotplug wlan1
iface wlan1 inet static
        address 192.168.0.XXXX
        network 192.168.0.XXXX
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        gateway 192.168.0.XXXX
        wpa-ssid  "YOUR-SSID-HERE"
        wpa-psk   "YOUR-PASSWORD-HERE"
        dns-domain  YOUR-DNS-DOMAIN-HERE
        dns-nameservers 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4

I've selected the dns nameservers of google, but you can configure whatever you want.
