Is Remmina ceashing when RDP to older servers like Server 2008 R2? That’s the only server giving me issues with Remmina. Try freerdp or rdesktop through command line and see if you have a better experience.

@emad-r said in Unable to delete KVM snapshot: @stacksofplates said in Unable to delete KVM snapshot: Uh there’s no difference. If you freeze the system it can’t be used. This is to run on live systems so they remain running the whole time. What no coffee break for servers !!! They definitely get a break if you pour coffee on them.

@jaredbusch said in HTTPD Fails To Start On Reboot Fedora: @nashbrydges said in HTTPD Fails To Start On Reboot Fedora: @black3dynamite said in HTTPD Fails To Start On Reboot Fedora: Was bookstack working before the reboot? It was working. Only after reboot did it screw up. @black3dynamite he probably has not rebooted since the first install which he did prior to me fixing the log file error. Yup. You are correct.

@JaredBusch This is from the Nginx website under pitfalls and common mistakes. I read that return's are much faster than rewrites due to not needing to evaluate RegEx(?) which is why you see return listed as a better option. I know you use rewrite and there's a lot you know that I don't so I was just wondering why that is your preference

This behavior is different than the last time I setup a reverse proxy like this. But that was also on CentOS 7 and not Fedora. So policy could be different.

You always have a few outliers before you standardize on things and they are always the gotchas. This has happened to me on many occasions.

@hobbit666 said in Install Zabbix on Fedora 27: Just ran through this again as moved from a CentOS install to Fedora and only just noticed it pulls down Version 3.0.15? Current Version is 3.4.8. Does the script need changing or how do we update to the latest? 3.0.15 is Zabbix 3.0 LTS version. https://www.zabbix.com/download?zabbix=3.0&os_distribution=centos&os_version=7&db=MySQL Edit: You will have to manually install the new version.

@fiyafly said in Install BookStack on Fedora 27: However, one of my projects in mind is better locking down Linux (CentOS/Fedora), and providing a use/security case to TPTB to tell them that Linux isn't the devil, when done right. Maybe FreeBSD is the lol.

Host machine is setup with mdadm raid. check the file system for errors + scrub the raid array if you are paranoid XFS doesn't even have a filesystem check utility xfs_check http://docs.cray.com/books/S-2377-22/html-S-2377-22/z1029470303.html Does it actually do something? XFS famously does a placebo check. Yes, it actually does something. It's fixed a couple of systems here for me that wouldn't mount a data drive. Interesting. With XFS? Yepp. I know the system is XFS. I'm trying to get connected to it now, but it lost it's AD connection and I don't have a local login on it, lol. Can't you boot the machine using some LiveCD and alter the PAM order / add pam_unix/pam_localuser? You could also change root's password this way. This only works if the drive is not encrypted or you have the key. Yeah, I could do that, but I like my job, lol. In an emergency that's what we do, but this isn't an emergency (the system is up, my login isn't working). If you say so

But /var/lib/mongodb does exist. I also do have local.ns too. /sigh FFS @jaredbusch pay attention to what you are doing. don't use old versions. Long day when you have to sigh and FFS at yourself. Something like that, yes.

@bnrstnr said in Installing Fedora 27 LAMP Stack plus WordPress and SSL: @tim_g said in Installing Fedora 27 LAMP Stack plus WordPress and SSL: Create a new secure SSH key: ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "root-webserv1-key" Hit enter for default location and name. Hit enter again to skip passphrase creation. Now you should SSH to server to continue. Does this step disable normal logins or change anything at all? After my first restart my root password isn't working. This only generates a new certificate and does not do anything else. If your root password is not working, maybe you are typing it in incorrectly, or it's something else entirely, as what @NashBrydges is referring to. If you are using Putty, perhaps it's caching the old public key.

Schweeeeet!!

Works great on Fedora 27. dir alias is easier to type btw.

You can set up these private networks and connect them through a VXLAN with ovs. That way you can have something like a separate dev network on the same hosts and they can communicate between hosts. Not available in the epel repo? That is apparently the case unless my google--fu isn't up to snuff Nope. It is available in Fedora though. If you want to install it you have to manually build the RPMs. While not hard to build it would be a pain to maintain updates. OVS is used by oVirt so maybe the centos ovirt repo has it (or the ovirt stable repo) I'm assuming it's just building the RPM since it's not in the normal repo. http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-4.2/

Here is the quick and effective way to do it. WTF? sudo dnf install -y https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm That doesn't include the repo so it can easily update via dnf does it? Although chrome generally updated by itself so you may not need that functionality.

While trying to upgrade a 512 MB Vultr VPS, the upgrade was failing on the dnf -y install dnf-plugin-system-upgrade part. After some quick googling, it appeared that since I didn't have a swapfile and only 512mb of memory, the upgrade wasn't going to work. I ended up adding a 2GB swapfile and it went off without a hitch. I added the swap file like this: dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile1 bs=1024 count=2,097,152 chown root:root /swapfile1 chmod 0600 /swapfile1 mkswap /swapfile1 swapon /swapfile1

Kind of interesting, handy to have a simple way to get real RHEL, I guess.

After a few days, Fedora 27 is running nice & smooth...no crashes yet. Everything I used on F26 is working fine. There have been a few F27 updates. Gnome is now v3.26.1 Kernel is 4.13.9-300 Firefox is Quantum v57.0b11
