Red Hat Talks CentOS Past, Present, and Future : https://www.datacenterknowledge.com/open-source/red-hat-talks-centos-past-present-and-future You know, we've had CentOS Stream internally since probably RHEL 2, it's just that we would call it a 'nightly build. -- Mike McGrath, Red Hat's VP of Linux e...

You've convinced me to use Postfix :) First I got a similar issue with Postfix. I struggled a bit to make it work with Letsencrypt but that website helped a lot (for those with the same use case : https://zurgl.com/how-to-configure-tls-encryption-in-postfix/ ). Once I managed to set up the opportuni...

Also, why would anyone use sendmail in 2021? :lol: ok, I checked and didn’t know it was that old school (1980). Is the project abandonned ? I use it because it is already installed by default and runs out of the box. But I have never used it for anything else than sending logs... This time I’m deal...

Hi, I use sendmail on a couple of servers and it works fine... except when sending email to one specific email provider I get a 403 4.7.0 TLS handshake failed error Mar 2 18:05:33 myserver sendmail[291339]: 122H5X8d291339: to=email@orange.fr, ctladdr=username (1001/1001), delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:0...

Somehow, the libselinux version from module libselinux-python gets selected over the standalone libselinux version. The module libselinux-python is Springdale-specific: neither RHEL nor CentOS provide it. Try dnf module disable libselinux-python Yes, that solved the issue. Thanks ! There is another...

These packages exist in Springdale repos but they where downgraded inexplicably during the distro-sync from CentOS to Springdale.

P.S. : Springdale is not a 100% clone of RHEL I tried a dystro-sync from a CentOS box for testing : Downgrading: libselinux x86_64 2.9-2.1.module+el8.1.0+3972+45ab4324 sdl8-appstream 161 k Enabling module streams: libselinux-python 2.8 python27 On Springdale : $ sudo dnf list installed | grep selinu...

AlmaLinux (CloudLinux team) released a beta of its RHEL clone today : https://blog.almalinux.org/introducing-almalinux-beta-a-community-driven-replacement-for-centos/ I had a look at RHEL Developper Program yesterday (the 16 free subscriptions for production servers) and their website is quite confu...

@ username : You optimist. Simple oneshot scripts that do not fault ... :P Still with very few machines to migrate, it’s a bit tempting ;) Does someone knows if migrating a server from CentOS to RHEL does reinstall ALL the packages or only a few ? I tried the Oracle script (hem... just to have a lo...

January 2021 : Converting all my CentOS boxes to Oracle Linux on New Year's Day using the script centos2OL ( https://github.com/oracle/centos2ol) ). July 2021 : Oracle Linux subscription-free program is canceled. Subscription fees starting at 700$. August 2021 : Converting 16 CentOS boxes to RHEL us...
