It is an absolute delight to see a posting like yours. No questions,
no complaints, no "you shouldn't be doing that, and no
non-answers. Thank you for confirming my belief that the open-source
community is there to help. I, too, started with RedHat Linux when
it was 'free', converted to WhiteHat, then Centos. I control servers
of x86_64, Raspberry Pi, mostly on Centos 7, all for fun, not as a
job. I'm working on the C8....
Now, ... I haven't had as good luck with C8 s you allege. There were
several things I had to deal with:
- new firewall
- new mailer (sendmail -> postfix)
- new system management (systemd)
- new yum (introduction of software streams, whatever they are)
But, it keeps me busy during this lockdown time.
