Red Hat has introduced a new technology, called Stratis, that is a layer combining Linux' existing LVM2 technology and the existing XFS filesystem and merging them together to be managed as a single unit with best practices automatically applied. It's not new per se but takes best of breed existing technologies and puts them together to feel and act more like their more modern competition.

User of CentOS and Ubuntu servers myself. Mint is still top go-to for desktop, though there are interesting alternatives like ElementaryOS.

Linux is not always easy to learn, I just forget everything if it's not regularly used, especially CLI with their bazillion switches that no mere mortal can ever memorize. And moving between different distros where commands don't work exactly the same, Aptitude and Yum, etc.

Cool, but always challenging.

Also, my SSH server was disabled after install. Seems they took after Ubuntu on that one.

Gah, the evil is sneaky in this one. That would have been a very unpleasant surprise.

Ya luckily I was just downstairs and not somewhere else trying to get in.

That's my guess, that a package is missing.

At least it's not purposely breaking shell inheritance like IDEAS on IRIX used to do. Looked absolutely horrible when another sysadmin looked at those systems. Still, that's just terrible practice today.

Yeah, I can't say what I am thinking about it without making this site PEGI 18...

I'm thinking it right along with you, between bouts of nausea from the memories.

I'm still wrestling with it, but it looks like I'm going to win this one.

Good! Beat that POS into submission!

Oh I did. It tried to cheat on my two more times by blocking the whole shell process despite being forced to background (app &) and using the same TCP port for two different instances but ... finally gave up.

Thanks for your coaching 😉

@travisdh1 Thanks for the advice.

Ouch.....

Yeah I know. It was a "lot" of memory for early 2012. Today it is terribly anaemic.

@travisdh1 Workaround? Use iptables? Fedora? CentOS6? Ubuntu? Hm.....

Way to necro a post, security and firewall ar of the upmost importance. No system ever needs to be setup open this way....

I think that he was being tongue in cheek.

Okay, I didn't get it LOL

So as is with most things. I actually did set an address for Bind in named.conf. I just needed to add the ip address to listen on and add the zone for recursion and it's working now. Thanks!

Never saw that. And it doesn't seem to make any sense. And certainly doesn't make me want to use Linux. What a freaking weird ad.

Cool tool, I have no used this one before.

Sure, mentioned it only for completeness.

That looks like a win if you didn't need any data from that system...

Export the Schema just in case, lol.
