@DustinB3403 said in Oracle Linux Installation and performance seems insanely bad:

@Obsolesce CentOS as a product is dead, the alternatives are RHEL or CentOS Stream.

CentOS Stream is a totally different thing. Not what people consider alternatives. It is an alternative in the same way that Ubuntu or Windows is.

The real alternatives that are drop in replacements that work exactly the same and cost the same are Oracle Linux, AlamLinux and Rocky Linux.

I just use CloudFlare for families. If I need to, I can change DNS on whatever to view something.

That only blocks malware and porn if you choose to. What about ads, marketing crap, tracking, etc.?

I leverage what's in the browser for that stuff.

That might not be 100% the best way to handle it, but I don' thave to manage and pay for a server to do it.

No Raspberry Pi lying around?

Who has an unused computer lying around? lol

I don’t, this old box of mine is hitting its last legs...

Nice! I was thinking about doing this soon.

Worth the try checking it @dbeato thanks, will try it once I can remote back into the machine today

I usually just copy/paste a Chocolatey install command that does it all at once. Everything else is on separate media that requires no install. Example, copy over games, import them in... such as into Steam.

I was going to mention... with Chocolatey tool choco list -lo just pipe it to a text file.

But that only gives you things installed through Chocolatey. Dustin's OP gives you everything installed through the normal Windows installer process (and registers the install).

I recall when chocolatey didn't use the windows installer process for everything - things are much better now.

It is package by package. Lots of things, through Chocolatey or not, don't use the Windows installer process.

I've not seen Chocolatey not register software installs in Windows, ever.

I have. Many times. Most of the time I think that it does, but it is not Chocolatey that does it when it does.

With what software specifically?

Try installing Sysinternal tools, it will not register at all, that is one example. You can do so with Chocolatey.

I never installed that stuff anyways. That Chocolatey doesn't is nothing new.

I thought you wanted to know which applications would do that, but I guess I read wrong.

Got it working. It is something with GRUB2 portion of the installer code, it has a bug in it. The LILO portion of the code does as well. Use the old GRUB portion and it installs just fine. Quirky, but it works.

@dustinb3403 said in OpenProject Installation Troubleshooting.:

eh.

I agree, but I just want to see what it's all about, which docker will work fine for. Maybe I'll revisit once I have more time. Doubt I'll be much help even then though.

@aaronstuder hi I couldn't succeed that installation I reinstalled centos 7 1708 the same result someone can help? 0_1525526184662_image.png

@bigbear said in WordPress Hosting:

Are you still doing hostadillo @scottalanmiller ?

Yup, sure are!

That's why we switched to running it on Ubuntu with Snaps. Runs great.

@black3dynamite said in How to Install Fedora 25 Minimal:

Unlike installing Linux Integration Services, Hot-Add support is not enabled by default after installing hyperv-daemons.

Create a file /etc/udev/rules.d/100-balloon.rules. You may use any other desired name for the file.

Add the following content to the file: SUBSYSTEM=="memory", ACTION=="add", ATTR{state}="online"

Reboot the system to enable Hot-Add support.

See Note 8 on Supported CentOS and Red Hat Enterprise Linux virtual machines on Hyper-V

You mean for dynamic memory to work?

Yes, dynamic memory for ballooning and hot-add.

@Mike-Davis said in GPO - Install software based on User - Without user involvement:

@Dashrender said in GPO - Install software based on User - Without user involvement:

Many policies can't be applied to users and have to be applied to the computer. that said you might be able to set the Item level targeting to limit it to specific users.

This is your problem.

If you want to deploy the software based on user, you need to deploy it under User Configuration -> Policies -> Software Settings -> Software installation.

You tried to deploy it under Computer Configuration, and filtered by User, so it gets totally ignored.

This is only a problem if your computer is not part of this GPO pool - or you're trying to run things from both computer and user without loopback enabled.

@PenguinWrangler said in Simple NethServer 7 ISO Installation:

Has anyone ever used SME Sever? http://wiki.contribs.org? Looks similar to NethServer, not as up to date of an interface it appears but I have used it at locations and it works well. It is based on CentOS.

Actually, NethServer is based off SME Server:

That's the reason for the similarity.

Post to be updated with setting up SSL.

sudo yum install python-certbot-apache sudo certbot --apache

Accept defaults in certbot, and I forget the update options off the top of my head.

Just FYI for anyone finding this thread. The above does not work because there is not a vhost file.

Call certbot like this.

certbot --apache --email [email protected] --domain nexcloud.domain.com --agree-tos --non-interactive

I have always used the following for MSI
http://www.suiviperf.com/zabbix/index.php

So I decided to try hooking up a new install of openfire to my domain controller (Zentyal). Turns out you need a more recent version of prototype.js to make it work correctly.

cd /opt/openfire/plugins/admin/webapp/js; mv prototype.js prototype.js.old; wget https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/prototype/1.7.1.0/prototype.js systemctl restart openfire

At that point clear your browser cache if you had started the setup configuration via web browser already, and you should be able to complete the setup using your Active Directory information.

I know, I know, way beyond the article scope, but I figured it would save some of us a little headache.

I downloaded the wrong package, and now I feel stupid 😢

The 64 bit package works fine.....

I tried Rundeck. It was more confusing than just using Ansible without a GUI. IMO, just having the playbook with yaml and jinja files is easier to read and use. GUIs always have at least one thing you need in a place you wouldn't think.

I guess I wouldn't mind having some reports in a GUI but I'll stick with just text files.

I hit the store last night and spent $23 on a 32 GB, not point in not just having plenty of extra space.
