 You will want to find the IP addresses of your HOST (the machine running Virtual Box) and your GUEST (the Virtual Box running your Kalabox).
 
+CONFIGURING HOSTS
 *On Your HOST
 1. Add the following line to your /etc/hosts file: "GUEST_IPADDRESS     kala GUESTHOSTNAME php.kala" 
 
+    To find the address of your GUEST machine run "ifconfig" from the GUEST machine's command line and your IP will be the 
+    address after "inet addr:" 
+
 *On Your GUEST
-1. run ssh-keygen
-2. run git config --global user.name "Your Name"
-3. run git config --global user.email [email protected]
-4. run sudo usermod -g www-data YOURUSERNAME
-5. add the following line to your /etc/hosts file: "HOST_IPADDRESS      xdebug.kala" (this will let you use xdebug from an IDE on your HOST)
-6. run sudo reboot
+2. add the following line to your /etc/hosts file: "HOST_IPADDRESS      xdebug.kala" (this will let you use xdebug from an IDE on your HOST)
+
+    To find the address of your HOST machine make sure you complete Step 1 above and then visit http://kala/ in a webrowser on your HOST machine. 
+    The IP ADDRESS of your host will be listed in the phpinfo() below the KALAMUNA screen as the _SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"] variable. 
+
+USING SSH
+Once you have completed the CONFIGURING HOSTS setup we recommend that you minimize VB and the VB Terminal in favor of using your HOST's terminal. This
+allows for a more authenticate experience as it relates to development. Open a terminal in your host and type "ssh USERNAME@kala" to connect to
+your kalabox. You will use the username you set up during installation of Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Server.
+
+ACCESSING YOUR WEBROOT
+You may want to edit your code using an IDE on your host. To do so
