yum-config-manager, does --save/--setopt work?
by Adam Tauno Williams 10 Apr '15

10 Apr '15

What is the point of --save in yum-config-manager. I cannot figure out how to use --setopt= $ yum-config-manager --save --setopt="exclude=samba*" updates Seems evident what that should do, but it doesn't do anything. The documentation for --save says "save the current options (useful with --setopt)" I would like to script/automate some YUM configuration. -- Adam Tauno Williams <mailto:awilliam@whitemice.org> GPG D95ED383 Systems Administrator, Python Developer, LPI / NCLA

CentOS 7 auto mounting non authenticated users
by Michael Horne 10 Apr '15

10 Apr '15

Hi, I mentioned this issue in reply to "CentOS 7.1 user login screen can't scroll up/down" but heard nothing. We authenticate using NIS and our home directories are mounted via NFS. Once a user logs into a CentOS7 workstation their username appears in the login screen 'user list'. I have disabled the list but notice that after a reboot running mount -l shows all previously authenticated users home directories are being mounted over NFS again automatically. Is this normal? I have noticed some latency issues with the NFS and assume it is related, can anybody verify if this is a bug or a configuration error? Surely they shouldn't re-mount until the user authenticates again? thanks in advance, Michael

Question centos 7 upgrade
by Günther J. Niederwimmer 10 Apr '15

10 Apr '15

Hello, I make a test installation with the new iso 1503-01 but I mean with this release is anything broken ? The first thing, is it "normal" with this release avahi-daemon is not installed! I disable this always ;-) The nfs-server installation don't work any more correct for me, I can't connect from a client? some packages are broken like firewall-config? Is it a better way to install the "normal" Centos 7 and afterward upgrade to Centos 7 1503. Thanks for a answer, -- mit freundlichen Grüßen / best Regards, Günther J. Niederwimmer

DELL U2412M monitor slow boot
by hai wu 10 Apr '15

10 Apr '15

Using large Dell U2412M monitor here, with CentOS7. It is really slow to boot up, each time it would hang after the following messages for a very long time, with no logs, then it would continue to boot up fine: [ OK ] Reached target Initrd Default Target. Welcome to CentOS Linux 7 (Core)! This does not occur for other Dell monitor like DELL P190S. Any ideas?

centos kernel changelog?
by Matt Garman 09 Apr '15

09 Apr '15

I'm probably overlooking something simple, but I can't seem to find a concise changelog for the rhel/centos kernel. I'm on an oldish 6.5 kernel (2.6.32-431), and I want to look at the changes and fixes for every kernel that has been released since, all the way up to the current 6.6 kernel. Anyone have a link to this? Thanks! Matt

CentOS 7.1 user login screen can't scroll up/down
by Ole Holm Nielsen 09 Apr '15

09 Apr '15

After we upgraded our CentOS 7.0 desktops to CentOS 7.1, a critical error in the graphical login screen has appeared on all 7.1 machines: We have 100+ users defined in /etc/passwd, and a list of names is presented on the initial login screen. However, it's impossible to scroll up or down in this user list to select the desired user. The middle mouse button seems to be disabled, so scrolling has become impossible! One can use the left and right mouse buttons to select one of the users in view, but no one else. This seems definitely to be a critical bug in CentOS 7.1. Workarounds: 1. Log in non-graphically using Ctrl-Alt-F2, then run the command startx. 2. Trim down /etc/passwd to 1 (or a few) relevant users. -- Ole Holm Nielsen Department of Physics, Technical University of Denmark

Edit login user list on CentOS 6
by Alfred von Campe 09 Apr '15

09 Apr '15

The thread on the CentOS 7.1 user login screen reminded me of a small nagging issue I have on CentOS 6. We are using a Windows AD backend to authenticate users on our CentOS 6 systems. When a system is built, and nobody has yet logged into it, you have to enter your username in the login screen to log in. The next time you are the the login screen it lists all the users who have logged in (via the graphical login screen). This works great if this is your own desktop and nobody ever logs into it, but on a shared system the list can get very long. Does anyone know where this lists is kept? There are some systems where I want to edit the user list, but I have not been able to find it. Thanks, Alfred

The future of centos
by Francis Gerund 09 Apr '15

09 Apr '15

Almost everyone here has probably read this by now. If so, move along, nothing new here. But just in case you haven't, please take the time to read this. Here it is, in their own words: what Redhat thinks of Centos, and it's plans for the future of Centos. Can you read between the lines? In this case, it isn't very hard to do, IMHO. community.redhat.com/centos-faq
