 - **`playRTPStream.sh`** - Using rtpdump to play RTP streams from PCAP files with VLC. This script was useful to extract RTP Streams from sniffed VoIP communication and then with a help of VLC to dump those streams into valid .wav files. (https://github.com/hdiniz/rtpdump). [gist](https://gist.github.com/mgeeky/0b8bd81a3f6fb70eec543bc0bae2f079)
 
+- **`vm-manager.sh`** - A bash script offering several aliases/functions for quick management of a single Virtualbox VM machine. Handy to use it for example to manage a Kali box. By issuing `startkali` the VM will raise, `sshkali` - offers instant SSH into your VM, `getkali` - returns VM's IP address, `iskali` - checks whether VM is running, `stopkali` goes without explanation.

+# Simple vm-specific management bash functions and aliases.
+# Coming with basic functionality of starting, stopping and status checking

+#
+# Providing commands for:
+#   - starting/stopping selected VM
+#   - checking whether selected VM is running
+#   - easily ssh'ing to the selected VM
+#   - scanning for other VMs
+#   - setting selected VM's IP address within /etc/hosts (and alike) file
