easy way to stop old ssl's
by Jerry Geis 15 Oct '19

15 Oct '19

HI all, When CentOS 7 was created things like SSLv2 TLSv1 TLSv1.1 etc... were all OK, but now they have fallen out of favor for various reasons. Updating to CentOS 7.7 does not automatically disable these types of items from apache - is there a script that is available that can be ran to bring a box up to current "accepted" levels ? Or is that an edit by hand, do it yourself on all your boxes or create your own script type of thing. Just checking if there is an easier way. Thanks, Jerry

Odd issue with 7.7.1908 updated with qemu-kvm-ev
by Lamar Owen 15 Oct '19

15 Oct '19

So, I have a client that has an internal use application that needs an ancient version of libc5. That's not a typo; libc5. Before the server that ran it died about a year and a half ago (said server was an AMD K6-2/450 with a 6GB Western Digital Caviar drive that had been spinning nearly continuously for almost 20 years!) it was running on Red Hat Linux 5.2. The last version of CentOS that shipped with a libc5 was 2.1. So I set them up a KVM guest running CentOS 2.1, mainly because Red Hat 5.2 wouldn't recognize the network at all, using the e1000 network driver, and it ran well. Now, yes, there are no updates, but no it doesn't matter; it's an internal use application that has a very small footprint and very low risk. After the update on the host to 7.7.1908, the network stopped running. The host also has a CentOS 7 guest that is still working properly. If I change the 2.1 system to not automatically load the e1000 driver and console in and 'modprobe e1000' manually, it starts working again, for a while. Any ideas as to where to start looking? qemu-kvm-ev itself, or libvirt? I'm planning to start out with rollbacks to the previous versions of each to try to find where the issue starts.

Hello. Im new on Centos I recently installed Centos 8 and i have the following problem with my browser I cant play media on the browser. for example i cant play. https://twitter.com/Ffs_OMG/status/1183397555914366976 Or i cant listen shows or songs on mixcloud. for example https://www.mixcloud.com/parapolitika-parapolitika/%CE%B3%CE%B9%CF%89%CF%81… i get the message "Sorry - your browser is not supported. Please update your browser or install another such as Google Chrome. Mixcloud requires HTML5 audio with MP3 and MP4 support." I suspect that these 2 problems relate. Any ideas how to solve this problem? Thanks in advance!

> How do you measure the slowness? Use fio or bonnie++ to share some number. By it taking more than 6 hours to "install" CentOS 8 in the guest :) Jerry

CVE-2019-6470 - dhcpd6 bug in CentOS 8 not being fixed?
by Steinar Skjelanger 13 Oct '19

13 Oct '19

The CVE-2019-6470 bug in isc-dhcp for ipv6 causing the server to crash on a regular basis is marked as "will not fix" for RHEL 8 on Red Hat's web site [1]. It's already got a fix for RHEL/CentOS 7, and other distros (like Ubuntu and Fedora) have released fixes. Is anyone familiar with the issue, or know about a (reasonable) workaround? Or why Red Hat doesn't want to fix it? I tried to contact Red Hat support to get their reasoning, but as we only have self-support subscriptions with them, they were not particulary interested in talking to me.

qeum on centos 8 with nvme disk
by Jerry Geis 13 Oct '19

13 Oct '19

Hi All - I use qemu on my centOS 7.7 box that has software raid of 2- SSD disks. I installed an nVME drive in the computer also. I tried to insall CentOS8 on it (the physical /dev/nvme0n1 with the -hda /dev/nvme0n1 as the disk. The process started installing but is really "slow" - I was expecting with the nvme device it would be much quicker. Is there something I am missing how to get a faster disk access ? Thanks, Jerry

CentOS 8 virt-manager
by Tom Bishop 13 Oct '19

13 Oct '19

I am thinking about building a new host and trying to decide if virt-manager is working on CentOS 8. I thought I saw previously on the mail list that there were some issues but cannot find the thread right now. If anyone has migrated some workloads from 7 and seen any issues let me know. Thanks :)
