      He was not impeached. They tried though.

      He was impeached twice. He was not convicted and removed.

      Linux is number one in laptops

      Where are you getting your statistics from?

      That doesn't include servers and completely ignores Android. You're proving @scottalanmiller's point here. You have to specify a specific market that Windows is a leader in, specifically PC/Laptop. On the whole of the industry Android/Linux is the leader.

      If you read what I quoted, i responded to a very specific piece of what he wrote...

      Then I linked some stats to show that specific text of his I quoted was wrong, and then asked where he got his info, because I can't find anything to show otherwise of that specific thing I quoted.

      Pay attention. Context matters. The quotes help with that.

      Yep, you're right missed the quote.

      Obviously we should never use Microsoft technologies again.

      @scottalanmiller said in Asterisk/Elastix setup in AWS:
      You'd never use one of the viable Asterisk distros like FreePBX or VitalPBX, let alone an old, dead one like Elastix.

      Thought a few people were using FreePBX/VitalPBX here ?

      I think he meant in the scale-as-needed cloud-ready kind of way.

    • RE: Log & Alerts Management

      @DustinB3403 said in Log & Alerts Management:

      @hobbit666 Zabbix is something of a go-to solution. Very simple to get started with and it does a ton right out of the box.

      It doesn't really do log management though. Graylog would be the solution for that.

    • RE: PXE Boot & Software deployment

      @Obsolesce said in PXE Boot & Software deployment:

      @gjacobse said in PXE Boot & Software deployment:

      What is your preference on PXE Boot deployment and software deployment?

      SCCM and Software Center seem to be a joke here. Although it could be the team responsible for managing it.

      We have a tremendous amount of issues with PXE Boot deployments, not installing the right image and thus nothing is installed or installed right ( Office 365, Adobe, VPN software, etc).

      If the agent isn’t right you delete from ADUC and SCCM and start over..

      We are lucky if Software Center works,... some times.

      Published software packages break on a regular basis, aren’t available to install due to GPO, and you can’t run it ( that my group has found) in an elevated state for applications the user doesn’t see; not all applications are published to everyone...

      We use Intune for ~10k devices across a handful of countries and is working great for device and software deployment.

      I agree with this. Intune is replacing SCCM functionality in the best way possible.

      @coliver said in The future of the CentOS Project is CentOS Stream:

      It's built from RHEL sources but it's not a clone

      Correct. And it is not trivial.

      Nope.

      Alas, but not surprising. I can imagine this lessens their development workload.

      Don't think so. Seems like that wouldn't change.

      One less product to maintain?

      Which product is being removed? There is still a current release (Fedora), still the Stream release (that already exists today) and still the final LTS release (RHEL 8 / CentOS 8.) None really gets removed. CentOS 8 is a trivial copy of RHEL 8, not a product on its own. So there's no piece of their system being removed. Just IBM taking a stand that LTS releases don't make sense outside of staunchy politically driven situations... with which I agree.

      At the end of 2021 the LTS release will be gone; thus, a product is removed. As far as it being a trivial copy of RHEL 8, CentOS's public stance seems to be different.

      It kind of is and it kind of isn't.

      CentOS Linux is built from publicly available source code provided by Red Hat®, Inc for Red Hat® Enterprise Linux in a completely different (CentOS Project maintained) build system.

      It's built from RHEL sources but it's not a clone because they do some modifications to move RHEL specific tooling and trademarks.
