7.3: Gnome workspaces mirrored
by Gerhard Schneider 05 Jan '17

05 Jan '17

An user is using 2 displays and configured Gnome to "Static Workspaces only on primary display on" using gnome-tweak-tool Till 7.2 it was working as expected. After upgrading to 7.3 the content on the primary screen gets mirrored to all workspaces. When switching to "Static Workspaces only on primary display off" everything is working as expected on 7.3, too. Any ideas? Thank you in advance!

ghostscript update breaks evince
by Robert Nichols 05 Jan '17

05 Jan '17

Today's ghostscript.x86_64 0:8.70-21.el6_8.1 update causes evince to refuse to display any postscript file. Running evince from a terminal session, I see the errors: invalidaccess -7 invalidaccess -7 invalidaccess -7 ** (evince:1252): WARNING **: Error rendering thumbnail Downgrading to ghostscript.x86_64 0:8.70-21.el6 corrects the problem. Anyone else seeing this? -- Bob Nichols "NOSPAM" is really part of my email address. Do NOT delete it.

[OT] Network Attached Storage
by TE Dukes 05 Jan '17

05 Jan '17

Hello, Been thinking about either purchasing one of these or building my own. This will be for home use. I was looking at the QNAP 451+ or building (DYI NAS) one with FreeNAS. I also found that CentOS has a NAS project. Not sure which way to go. They would cost about the same. One would be proprietary and the other open source. I like open source. This for home use. Thought I'd start out with 2, 4TB drives, maybe 3 so I could implement RAID 5. I have four computers to backup. TIA

Issue with MariaDB-server
by Clint Dilks 05 Jan '17

05 Jan '17

Hi, Today I have updated a CentOS 6.8 system that has MariaDB-server installed from http://yum.mariadb.org/5.5/centos6-amd64 and found that I had an SELinux issue. I know this is not really CentOS related, but thought I would check if anyone else on this list uses this repository and has also seen a problem ? Using the information at https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/SELinux I have created a local policy that seems to fix things module marialocal 1.0; require { type mysqld_safe_t; class capability { setuid setgid }; } #============= mysqld_safe_t ============== allow mysqld_safe_t self:capability setgid; allow mysqld_safe_t self:capability setuid; My own research suggests this is reasonably safe, but does anyone see a reason why this shouldn't be used ? It may be useful to know that the particular rpms are MariaDB-server-5.5.54-1.el6.x86_64 and selinux-policy-3.7.19-292.el6_8.2.noarch. Thanks for any feedback, and Happy New Year :)

microcode_ctl-2.1-16 hard crash on Intel E5 2667 v4 CPUs
by Locane 04 Jan '17

04 Jan '17

Hello all! I'm brand new to the mailing list, and I've encountered an issue with the microcode_ctl package version 2.1-16 being installed during the CentOS 7.3 upgrade. It causes my servers to hard stop and they need to be forcibly powered off and back on again with the power button to continue. This RedHat thread https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1398698 details the issue, and version 2.1-18 available from Petr Oros' personal section of RedHat http://people.redhat.com/poros/e6a8cc19d733b1526c2519fbaa1e231d/ is supposed to fix the issue. I haven't had a chance to test it yet. My questions are, who decides what packages are current for CentOS when I "yum upgrade"? When can version 2.1-18 be released to avoid this problem? Thanks in advance!

Amavis on Centosl help
by Tim Smith 04 Jan '17

04 Jan '17

I'm moving from Ubuntu to CentOS 7 Previously, on Ubuntu, installing amavisd would lead to etc/amavis/conf.d that contained: 01-debian 05-domain_id 05-node_id 15-av_scanners 15-content_filter_mode 20-debian_defaults 21-ubuntu_defaults 25-amavis_helpers 30-template_localization 40-policy_banks 50-user However installing amavisd on centos leads to a spaghetti config file (i.e. /etc/amavisd/amavisd.conf and nothing else) For obvious reasons I want to avoid spaghetti config, not only is it poor practice, but also nigh on impossible to maintain properly without breaking stuff. Assuming it is possible, how would I go about changing the Centos "dump" based config into a more sensible one where local site customisations are clearly deliniated ?

selinux & rsyncd: Allowing global read for backup
by Kenneth Porter 04 Jan '17

04 Jan '17

I want to set up rsyncd to expose the whole drive read-only to BackupPC running on another machine. So I need to set selinux to allow this. According to the Fedora wiki I can do so like this: setsebool -P rsync_disable_trans 1 <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SELinux/rsync> But when I run the command on CentOS 7.3 it tells me that this bool is not defined. So what do I do now? (Everything works fine if I set SELinux to permissive.)
