I tried Rundeck. It was more confusing than just using Ansible without a GUI. IMO, just having the playbook with yaml and jinja files is easier to read and use. GUIs always have at least one thing you need in a place you wouldn't think.

I guess I wouldn't mind having some reports in a GUI but I'll stick with just text files.

Thanks! What do you use OwnCloud for?

We run one OC system that is used for a client that has clients that need to move files to and from them from loaned hardware. It's a weird, complicated scenario. But OC works beautifully for it and has for years.

Any updates to this?

Use Certbot never this method. keep your life simpler.

Yeah. If the old way is working, that should keep working. However, certbot is easier to use.

When my system came up for renew after certbot was out, I installed certbot and renewed that way. everything is in the same pace. nothing had to be changed in the config files.

Has this been sufficiently answered at this point? Or should we provide more info?

Going to do so now, thanks.

@Pete-S said in Installing Snipe-IT on CentOS 7 and MariaDB:

<rant>NodeBB works like crap on all threads that are longer than a page or two. You can't just grab the scroll bar and find all posts. You have to release it and grab it again for the page to realize there are more posts to show. Also you can just use pgup/pgdn either. It will get a couple of posts then stop unless you work really slow. At least on Firefox.

And it's so many round trips to the server just to get a few posts. I which it would get at least a hundred posts or so in one go. Bandwidth needs are minimal. Posts on ML is mostly just a few lines of text. </rant>

I can't stand NodeBB on mobile. It's absolute shit in that aspect. On desktop it's great though. But I'd be on way more of it worked half decently on mobile.

So just as an added piece of information: If you are using Digital Ocean or Vultr they disable SELinux by default to make it easier for their users (not saying it's right but I read in articles that was their logic). In order to enable it you need to install selinux-policy-targeted

On reboot SELinux will be enforcing.

If the above is your problem, then you should look at a different solution. @scottalanmiller's current favorite is MeshCentral.

It is not as good as ConnectWise Control yet, IMO, but close.

Note, always give back..
Posted the corrections to their documentations as a pull request to github.

Very nice, thanks!

Ah, I've not done that, that would explain why I had not seen it in that light.

Yes, the number of people who are out there looking for "whatever is called Elastix" is way more than enough to keep the website and brand name around. Elastix has a huge presence in South America and in LATAM countries in general alone.

@scottalanmiller said in Linux Lab Project: Building a Linux Jump Box:

First you would create users and SSH keys and then deploy them to the other boxes that you wish to connect to. This is the core of what makes the Jump Box a Jump Box. This is standard SSH key setup, nothing unique to a Jump Box.

Did you ever make a good write up on creating users and SSH keys? If so, I cannot find it.

I mean, I know how to make and use keys in general. But detail here would be good.

Write up for creating the users on the jump box and getting their SSH keys. Write up for pushing users and keys to other systems that said jump box will be allowing access. Write up for control of said access. Bob and Jill have access to Jump Box. Bob has Access to servers 1 & 2. Jill has access to server 2 & 3.

I know that @scottalanmiller has mentioned in another thread that he has a script to push this all out (question 2). I can only assume that the script has some controls to tell you which server so shove the key and user logon to (question 3).

I thought that screen looked familiar, lol.

Just curious, how is Zabbix compared to Nagios/icinga?

@scottalanmiller history | grep Roboto reveals these:

sudo restorecon -v /home/john/.local/share/fonts/Roboto-Black.ttf sudo semanage fcontext -a -t FILE_TYPE '/home/john/.local/share/fonts/Roboto-Black.ttf'

That or we jumped the gun and interrupted it while it was doing its thing.

Updated to the latest NVM and NodeJS versions.

There is also the ability to check out the repo and just use get to pull the current but if I do that how do I didn't install in the same fashion that this is installed?

I've not tried that either.

Since you have that thread about testing out Vultr...

They don't explain it very well there but you can spin up a VM with OwnCloud already installed and ready to go.

It runs on CentOS 6, but still very handy!
