      @scottalanmiller said in Bind Linux Process to Well Known Web Ports When Not Root:

      If you have ever tried to run a user space program on Linux with a port below 1024 you know that this is a security problem and you are not allowed to do so. There is a simple fix for this, but it is not well known.

      Once you know the binary that you will be using to open the low number (well known) port you can use this command to grant it permission to use these ports without otherwise compromising security.

      setcap cap_net_bind_service+ep /my/binary/file

      Now you can run your application. This is most commonly used for user space web applications that want to use port 80 or 443 without requiring that you run a reverse proxy in front of them.

      Good to know!

      I found this as an example of how to use it and also commands to remove the permission:
      https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/HTTPD/NonRootPortBinding

      The setcap utility seems to be available in the libcap2-bin package on debian distros.

      I haven't checked if it's installed by default.

      Hi there,

      Anyone of you ever came across SUSE Manager?

      While it is saying open source and it is letting to download evaluation copy with subscription key on email?

      I believe SUSE Manager kind product I'm looking, especially for patching CentOS and SUSE servers.

      Any clue?

      Why not use Ansible or Salt?

      These are what I'd generally recommend.

      Issue returned for the last two weeks even on Fedora 31. Luckily the old F30 kernel was still there because of the lock and continued to work. But the 5.4 kernel came out today and it works again.

      I've had no issues again

      @Dashrender said in Why I Feel KVM Is the Easiest HyperVisor to Learn the Basics On:

      The question is - why is the quality so bad? Isn't the process supposed to catch bad quality?

      Their process is consider the windows insider group (extreme power users) to be a good enough replacement for proper QE teams, and writing automated build tests.

      Right, the new process isn't to catch bad things, it's actually to see bad things as "not all that bad." Presumably because a shift from viewing their products as being for business to being for entertainment. Remember when Windows 95 was a key tool for businesses, but by Windows 98 they had made sure to put a "for entertainment purposes only" label on the product to make sure no one confused it with something that was intended for business use?

      I feel like that's where they are now. At least internally, no one is really thinking of this as a business tool.

      @scottalanmiller said in Installing LXC Containerization on openSuse Tumbleweed:

      I have to say, though, I prefer the Ubuntu LXD approach much better.

      I know Canonical is a big supporter of LXD. Who is the big supporter for LXC?

      LXD is just an interface for LXC. So Canonical supports LXC through LXD. The biggest contributors to LXC are Virtuozzo, IBM and Google.

      So LXD makes it easier to manage LXC?

      Yes

      talking about number of packages, this has always been my reference:

      if a distro has it packaged it is quite sure they have anything 😛

      both debian and suse have it.

      Good to see. Probably adds a little performance boost as well, newer compilers normally do.
