Cloning bridged VMs : VirtualBox vs. KVM
by Nicolas Kovacs 27 Mar '21

27 Mar '21

Hi, (tl;dr : how can I clone a KVM-based bridged virtual machine and force a duplicate MAC address ?) Up until recently I've been using VirtualBox on my workstation to test various local setups. Usually I would setup a basic CentOS installation, and whenever I wanted to fiddle around, I would just clone that system and play around with it. So whenever I shot myself in the foot on that VM, I would simply erase it and start over again with a new clone. Think of it as a disposable VM. All my VMs under VirtualBox used bridged mode, so they were in the same network. And in my local proxy server, I have Dnsmasq that assigns static IP addresses and meaningful hostnames to these VMs. Here's what the corresponding lines in dnsmasq.conf look like: dhcp-host=08:00:27:00:00:01,suse-lp151,192.168.2.10 dhcp-host=08:00:27:00:00:02,suse-lp152,192.168.2.11 dhcp-host=08:00:27:00:00:03,ce7-server,192.168.2.12 dhcp-host=08:00:27:00:00:04,ce8-server,192.168.2.13 dhcp-host=08:00:27:00:00:05,ol7-server,192.168.2.14 dhcp-host=08:00:27:00:00:06,ol8-server,192.168.2.15 dhcp-host=08:00:27:00:00:07,rh7-server,192.168.2.16 dhcp-host=08:00:27:00:00:08,rh8-server,192.168.2.17 Over the last two weeks, I decided to migrate from VirtualBox to KVM even for local configurations and virtualized desktop configurations. So far, everything works nice... except one problem I can't seem to solve (yet). I'm using KVM in bridged mode, over a br0 bridge on my workstation. Like with VirtualBox, all my KVM virtual machines are part of my local 192.168.2.0/24 network. Unfortunately there is no way to simply make a perfect clone of a virtual machine using virt-manager. It insists on assigning my cloned VM a different MAC address. And whenever I want to manually create a NIC with the same MAC address as the original, Virtual Machine Manager tells me I can't do that. Same player shoot again. Now I know that is normally a good thing. You don't want MAC address conflicts in your network. But here's the thing: I don't intend to fire up both copies at once. As with VirtualBox, I only intend to use one VM at a time, for testing purposes. Now how can I "explain" this to Virtual Machine Manager without having to jump through burning loops ?

yum versionlock vs priority
by Stijn De Weirdt 25 Mar '21

25 Mar '21

hi all, i could use some guidance in debugging an issue on centos 7.9 where "suddenly" yum refuses to install a package. the package has multiple version in 2 repos: highest version is in a repo with prio=5, the other lower versions are in a repo without any priorities set. we however require a specific version, so we use the versionlock plugin to lock it. repoquery --show-duplicates properly shows all versions. however, yum refuses to install this locked version. it says it can find the package (trying to install the package by name, and also by full version). when we remove the prio setting in this one repo it all works just fine. the odd thing is: we discovered this after a reinstall of a single host a few days ago, where we have a lot of other hosts with same setup without issues. there seem to have no updates of yum or anything related, so i'm a bit puzzled where this sudden change could come from. obvioulsy, it will turn out something did change, but i have no idea how to start finding the culprit. is there any documnetaiton that describes the precedence between yum plugins? is versionlock plugin always supposed to win over prio setting? hints/tips welcome. many thanks, stijn

fresh install of centos 7 and curl accessing some sites
by sashk 23 Mar '21

23 Mar '21

Hi, I've run into an issue with fresh install of CentOS 7. I used CentOS-7-x86_64-NetInstall-2009.iso to bootup and one of the mirrors to finish the setup. When I first logged in, had to install something from gitlab and download failed with an error "curl: (35) TCP connection reset by peer" and while in verbose mode, curl reports that "NSS error -5961 (PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR)". When I go to existing CentOS system (same version, but installed much earlier), everything works as expected. I compared version of curl, nss and openssl -- they all match. I quiet puzzled and have no idea what's going on (except it seems that curl doesn't know about ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256 cipher, in this case. What do I miss? ``` $ cat /etc/centos-release CentOS Linux release 7.9.2009 (Core) $ curl --version curl 7.29.0 (x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.29.0 NSS/3.53.1 zlib/1.2.7 libidn/1.28 libssh2/1.8.0 Protocols: dict file ftp ftps gopher http https imap imaps ldap ldaps pop3 pop3s rtsp scp sftp smtp smtps telnet tftp Features: AsynchDNS GSS-Negotiate IDN IPv6 Largefile NTLM NTLM_WB SSL libz unix-sockets $ curl -v https://about.gitlab.com * About to connect() to about.gitlab.com port 443 (#0) * Trying 151.101.2.49... * Connected to about.gitlab.com (151.101.2.49) port 443 (#0) * Initializing NSS with certpath: sql:/etc/pki/nssdb * CAfile: /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt CApath: none * NSS error -5961 (PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR) * TCP connection reset by peer * Closing connection 0 curl: (35) TCP connection reset by peer $ curl -v --tlsv1.3 https://about.gitlab.com * About to connect() to about.gitlab.com port 443 (#0) * Trying 151.101.194.49... * Connected to about.gitlab.com (151.101.194.49) port 443 (#0) * Initializing NSS with certpath: sql:/etc/pki/nssdb * CAfile: /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt CApath: none * NSS error -5961 (PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR) * TCP connection reset by peer * Closing connection 0 curl: (35) TCP connection reset by peer $ curl -v --tlsv1.2 https://about.gitlab.com * About to connect() to about.gitlab.com port 443 (#0) * Trying 151.101.66.49... * Connected to about.gitlab.com (151.101.66.49) port 443 (#0) * Initializing NSS with certpath: sql:/etc/pki/nssdb * CAfile: /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt CApath: none * NSS error -5961 (PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR) * TCP connection reset by peer * Closing connection 0 curl: (35) TCP connection reset by peer $ openssl s_client -connect about.gitlab.com:443 CONNECTED(00000003) depth=2 OU = GlobalSign Root CA - R3, O = GlobalSign, CN = GlobalSign verify return:1 depth=1 C = BE, O = GlobalSign nv-sa, CN = GlobalSign RSA OV SSL CA 2018 verify return:1 depth=0 C = US, ST = California, L = San Francisco, O = "Fastly, Inc.", CN = c.sni.fastly.net verify return:1 --- Certificate chain 0 s:/C=US/ST=California/L=San Francisco/O=Fastly, Inc./CN=c.sni.fastly.net i:/C=BE/O=GlobalSign nv-sa/CN=GlobalSign RSA OV SSL CA 2018 1 s:/C=BE/O=GlobalSign nv-sa/CN=GlobalSign RSA OV SSL CA 2018 i:/OU=GlobalSign Root CA - R3/O=GlobalSign/CN=GlobalSign --- Server certificate -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- MIIGETCCBPmgAwIBAgIMbzE9NHtvAS1nE+2MMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBCwUAMFAxCzAJ ... -----END CERTIFICATE----- subject=/C=US/ST=California/L=San Francisco/O=Fastly, Inc./CN=c.sni.fastly.net issuer=/C=BE/O=GlobalSign nv-sa/CN=GlobalSign RSA OV SSL CA 2018 --- No client certificate CA names sent Peer signing digest: SHA256 Server Temp Key: ECDH, P-256, 256 bits --- SSL handshake has read 3320 bytes and written 415 bytes --- New, TLSv1/SSLv3, Cipher is ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256 Server public key is 2048 bit Secure Renegotiation IS supported Compression: NONE Expansion: NONE No ALPN negotiated SSL-Session: Protocol : TLSv1.2 Cipher : ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256 Session-ID: 2935F1EC82151ABC0F853E64BFC433414AF00ECCFABBE32B57B40F4A44C3E043 Session-ID-ctx: Master-Key: 563BE1A9EB4D42B2A7D3CA8744066A0B0CB520DC4CB8365B970D97E343461E4D46CBC1535A6EBAB9D89FBA9324987E17 Key-Arg : None Krb5 Principal: None PSK identity: None PSK identity hint: None TLS session ticket lifetime hint: 7200 (seconds) TLS session ticket: 0000 - 1c 95 21 f7 8d df 11 44-3a f8 0d a0 81 2a e0 0c ..!....D:....*.. 0010 - b4 06 9d 90 03 a5 8e b7-3e d0 2e 4f c5 68 19 d0 ........>..O.h.. 0020 - d3 73 3b 0a d2 36 43 68-68 79 5d 68 b6 12 5c be .s;..6Chhy]h..\. 0030 - 29 d2 df 43 4a b2 ac dd-ec e5 b3 13 1b 22 7a f9 )..CJ........"z. 0040 - 50 40 b5 96 0d 2a c6 d9-17 1b 3c 2d 63 68 60 9f P@...*....<-ch`. 0050 - 84 10 08 81 6c bc 7b 2d-3f fc 48 6a 74 25 95 8a ....l.{-?.Hjt%.. 0060 - 0c 9b 82 4f ca 90 62 bd-8d e4 d5 58 f6 a9 d7 e6 ...O..b....X.... 0070 - 68 5c 47 81 d0 be a5 2e-f6 17 38 9b 0f a0 c1 5e h\G.......8....^ 0080 - 7e b5 71 30 19 30 34 63-47 2c bc 86 c6 48 ea 57 ~.q0.04cG,...H.W 0090 - f3 e5 8c 1d 97 77 00 31-94 9f 5c f3 41 8d 4e c1 .....w.1..\.A.N.

Centos 8 host -> VMware host
by Gregory P. Ennis 23 Mar '21

23 Mar '21

Everyone, I am trying to move some Centos 7 guests off of a Centos 8 host to a VMware host machine. qemu-img is a great tool in kvm to convert the files from *.qcow2 to *.vmdk very easily with the command : qemu-img convert -f qcow2 -O vmdk *.qcow2 *.vmdk I have been able to easily move these files to the 'usb vmware' system with scp from the Centos 8 host to the VmWare host. (Interesting in that I could not get the scp in the VMware host to work). Unfortunately, I have not figured out how to import the files into VMware virtual machine yet. I can easily create a new virtual machine with a CentOS8 *.iso file which tells me that the Vmware host is working. I may have been looking in the wrong places for documentation, but so fare I have not been impressed with VMware's documentation to import pre-existing kvm guests. Do any of you have any tutorial links as to how to import these *.vmdk files into VMware? Thanks for your help!!!! Greg Ennis

Festival for Centos 8
by Frank Cox 22 Mar '21

22 Mar '21

Johnny Hughes has compiled festival (the speech synthesis thing) for Centos 8. https://koji.mbox.centos.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=2246 I could download it directly from that webpage, but I'm wondering what repo it's in. I don't see any repo listed there, and dnf search festival returns no results on my computer. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Real D 3D Digital Cinema ~ www.melvilletheatre.com

XML parsing in shell script
by H 20 Mar '21

20 Mar '21

I have a challenge I am interested in getting feedback on. I will on a regular basis download a series of data files from the web where the data is in XML-format. The format is known in advance but is different between the various data files. I then plan to extract the various data items ("elements?") from each data file, do some light formatting and then save desired parts of each original data file as a formatted CSV-file for later importing into a database. As the plan is to use a bash shell script using curl to get the files, I have begun looking at external XML parsers that I can call from my script, perhaps specify which elements I want, get the data back in some kind of bash data structure and finally format and save as CSV-files. There seems to be a number of XML parsers available but perhaps someone on the list has a recommendation for which one might suit my needs best? I should add that I am running CentOS 7. Thank you.
