KVM Installation and VM Creation on Fedora 25

I find it even stranger that it preserves case, but doesn't honour it. So it is storing the full ASCII set, then processing it to compress it to a smaller set of characters. But it is not consistent, it uses caps sometimes, and not others. And it is very confusing when it interfaces with other systems and so things like the filename it trains you to "type anything" but you go to use a URL and caps matter.
That depends on the web host.

I know, but it's confusing for end users to have some things be case sensitive and some not. Windows users are especially prone to not knowing the difference between different interface locations and Windows 10 makes this worse by making the file search field also kick of a web search.

Yeah, I still think capitalization just shouldn't matter anywhere... at least it shouldn't functionally. It should just be for readability.

Can you guys point me in the right direction as to how I would go about doing X11 forwarding from a Linux server to a remote Windows workstation?

Just use MobaXterm and it's already set up (as long as the dependencies are installed on the server).

This entire process is for me to ultimately take my RHCE. From what the Exam book says there will be no access to the internet for the entirety of the test so I want to learn how to manually do everything before I learn how to make it easier for myself. This will be naturally easier just because everything will be running Linux but I have to work with what I've got right now.

Just spin up a RHEL Workstation VM. Don't even bring Windows into it.

That's true.

@wirestyle22 Do you have your RHCSA?
-
I did an article about a year ago about setting up KVM/QEMU on Ubuntu 16.04, it might be of some use: https://www.ramblingbiped.com/build-a-kvm-qemu-hypervisor-on-ubuntu-16-04-server/
I also wrote a short blurb on automating VM creation using a pre-built VM template, virt-clone, and virt-sysprep: https://www.ramblingbiped.com/automate-centos-7-minimal-virtual-machine-creation-with-kvm/

No, but the cert book is for both

That is very helpful. Thank you.
