Well then - I guess most of the world is idiots

That should fall into the "well duh" category. Of course most of the world is idiots.

Along this line - the boss wants me to add to my duties - I now get to train our users on how to use a computer as well as how to be security minded. i.e. don't plug in random USB sticks into a computer, etc.

You aren't blocking USB drives today?

In case anyone else is interested...

I upgraded using copr repository yesterday. I am really liking it! Much more responsive and it looks much nicer with the new icons.

I lost my keyboard shortcuts unfortunately, so I will need to recreate those. Overall I am very impressed.

No real argument with their follow up questions.

Those are good to get documented. Even if they don't mean shit.

I agree. Spammers make everyone lose

@wrx7m said in Postfix on Fedora 29 - Why Can't I Send Mail?:

I am setting up Postfix on Fedora 29 to send notifications for dnf-automatic and fail2ban. This server is running on Vultr and I am trying to send from DomainB.com to DomainA.com. DomainB is a new domain that hasn't been used for anything and DomainA is our main email domain, setup on Office 365.

In the postfix logs, I am getting connection timed out -

Mar 18 17:19:41 HOSTNAME postfix/qmgr[4085]: EEE853EE90: from=<[email protected]>, size=465, nrcpt=1 (queue active)
Mar 18 17:20:11 HOSTNAME postfix/smtp[9703]: connect to domainA-com.mail.protection.outlook.com[104.47.48.36]:25: Connection timed out

I have tried disabling firewalld, but still have the same issue. Not sure where the hangup is. Any suggestions on what to check?

I just went through this on Friday

@Romo said in QUEMU/KVM to Azure:

@IRJ Try this:

qemu-img.exe convert source.qcow2 -O vpc -o subformat=fixed dest.vhd

This appeared to work. I haven't gotten a chance to test yet, but it's larger in size compared to vhdx as I'd expect.

The exe part just needs to be dropped.

sudo qemu-img convert source.qcow2 -O vpc -o subformat=fixed dest.vhd

However this command works just fine...

sudo qemu-img convert -f qcow2 -O vhdx secureonion.qcow2 secureonion.vhdx

Why not go direct from qcow2 to vhd with qemu-img?

I seen to only be able to convert to vhdx

That doesn't make a lot of sense, as the documentation says it supports conversations (haha) conversions* of all types. Is there an error you are getting?

sudo qemu-img convert -f qcow2 -O vhd secureonion.qcow2 secureonion.vhd
qemu-img: Unknown file format 'vhd'

I am in the process of preparing an Ubuntu server for deployment to Azure. I have configured the system for azure migration per microsoft docs. I have converted the qcow2 image to vhdx. Now I need to convert it to VHD. There are tons of tools for Windows to do this, I am looking for a linux command line solution.
