C8 - KVM on bridge on VLAN on team issues.
by Lamar Owen 22 Jul '20

22 Jul '20

As part of my initial KVM host on C8 deployment, I decided to set up some HA features on the new host, specifically NIC teaming. Teaming seems to be bond++ of a sort, so I thought I would at least try it. So here's the scenario: 1.) Server with two gigabit ethernet ports, two Cisco switches. 2.) During install, used the 'Server with GUI' group and added the virtualization packages. 3.) During install, set up team0 to include the two gig-e ports set up active-backup (two switches). 4.) During install, set up three bridges, with the slave devices being VLANs pointed to the team0 subinterfaces (using VLANs 68, 101, and 302; 101 is to be the management bridge for the host, with guests on all three VLANs). So, for instance, bridge101 has a slave that is VLAN101 that points to team0.101 with a VLAN ID of 101. The bridge101 interface has a manual IP address, but bridge68 and bridge302 do not (IPv4 disabled; IPv6 Ignore) 5.) After reboot, the bridge101 interface comes up, and I successfully connect to the host, since the install is 8.1.1911, I ran a 'dnf update' up to 8.2.2004, which went well, then I successfully set up and used cockpit, cockpit-bridge, cockpit-machines, again over the IP address on bridge101. Ok, now that the base connectivity is working: 1.) Connect to the host (traffic on bridge101 over team0.101) using virt-manager on my laptop and install a C8 guest, with the network pointed to bridge302, and a manual IP address. 2.) After reboot of guest, there is no IP connectivity to the guest's gateway on VLAN302. 3.) HOWEVER, the gateway's MAC address shows up in the host's bridge fdb for VLAN302, AND in the arp output for the guest; ALSO, the MAC address for the guest shows on the cisco switch 'show mac-address-table' output. The output of 'ip --br link' looks normal for this configuration, but there's a disconnect somewhere. So, since I see that VLAN101 is passing traffic to the bridge correctly (since the management IP is on that VLAN), I try to set up a guest on VLAN101; no dice, no work, but the management IP still works fine. So, does anyone here have a working setup with KVM guests connecting to bridges using 802.1q VLANs on top of a team? Or even on top of a bond (I can reinstall and set it up as a bond easily enough, using active-backup, as far as I know; and, yes, I would reinstall the host from scratch to do this).

Apache umask
by Emmett Culley 22 Jul '20

22 Jul '20

I need to set the umask for apache to 002. I've tried every idea I've found on the internet, but nothing make a difference. Most suggest that I put "umask 002" in /etc/sysconfig/httpd, but that doesn't seem to make a difference. Other's suggest adding something to the httpd.service script for systemd. And that doesn't make any difference. Any suggestion from this list would be appreciated. Emmett

CentOS 7 rsyslog and ELK
by Pete Biggs 18 Jul '20

18 Jul '20

I asked a similar question about a year ago and didn't get any answers. So I thought I'd try again. What do people do to get their syslog messages on CentOS 7 into a remote ELK stack. I've tried lots of things involving rsyslog, filebeat, redis, logstash and so on in lots of different configurations but nothing really works. I can get rsyslog to talk directly to logstash (acting as a syslog server) but the messages don't have facility or severity codes in them which makes it considerably more difficult to manage the messages.

[OT] What is the max hardlink number for a single file on XFS
by Alessandro Baggi 17 Jul '20

17 Jul '20

Hi list, I have a little script that uses rysnc and hardlink to perform backups. Some days ago a friend told me that rsync could crash if the hardlink limit is reached. I know (and tested) that for ext4 the max number of hardlink for a single file is 65000 but I can't get a limit on XFS. Due to the fact that I can't get good resources from google search, I tried to reach its limit with a script creating a regular file and create in another dir many hardlinks. Currently I have: -rw-r--r-- 8730476 root root 12 16 lug 12.13 hlink/1 My scripts is trying to reach 20 mln of hardlink so need time to finish but 8730476 of hardlinks is an huge number. Someone know this limit? Thank you in advance.

hex editor for huge files
by hexpeek＠hexpeek.com 14 Jul '20

14 Jul '20

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 hexpeek: a hex editor for huge files Occasionally I need to work with huge binary files. Over the years I've tried many different tools and never found one that was exactly what I wanted. In my experience most hex editors either (1) do not work well with 4GB+ files or (2) require the user to learn a curses interface and are not scriptable. So I ended up creating a hex editor with some nice features: 1. prompt interface with command history (with libedit) 2. scriptable interface with a flexible command language 3. no glitches on huge files -- no reading until user requests 4. fully functional insert and delete 5. multi-level backup and restore 6. ability to dump generic file descriptors 7. work in hexadecimal and with 64 bit file offsets by default 8. BSD 3-clause license 9. and more... If interested, please check out the project at https://www.hexpeek.com or send e-mail to hexpeek(a)hexpeek.com. hexpeek is known to work on Debian, CentOS, FreeBSD, and Cygwin and is expected to work on any recent POSIX-like system. I look forward to improving hexpeek based on community feedback. Please let me know what features you are looking for in a hex/metadata editor.

complex migration
by Christopher Wensink 10 Jul '20

10 Jul '20

Hello Everyone, I need to do a complex migration of either a guest VM as a whole or as individual files with a dump and load of a progress database-based ERP system. The old host is an Amd Opteron 8 Core 16 GB ram single Socket CPU with a RAID 10 array of 8x 500 GB SATA Disks. It is running Centos 6.10 as a base OS using OpenVZ as the VM technology. Kernel version is 2.6.32-042stab142.1 x86_64 The VM "bowser" is running CentOS 6.8, it's allocated all 8 Cores, 4 GB of ram, and 120 GB of thick provisioned space. This VM is running kernel 2.6.32-042stab142.1 i686/i386 - 32 bit OS. The new host has Dual Xeon Silver CPU's 256 GB ram, and a RAID 6 setup w/ 13.96 TB of total available storage of SSD drives. I've followed the instructions here: https://communities.vmware.com/message/1719787#1719787 and here: http://gurutek.biz/migrating-from-proxmoxopenvz-to-esxesxivmware-server-par… I am at the point where I have a .vmdk file created, and I've imported the machine into vmware, but the machine is not booting. The bios vmware simply says no operating system found. I can boot from a rescue disk, then mount the old hard drive, and I can see files from the old VM. I was able to chroot into the filesystem of the old system, and I was able to get the network card communicating and online. After chrooting into the base of the old filesystem, when I try to use yum to install a kernel and run yum updates, I have an issue where the system is trying to install the i686 and x86_64 versions of RPM's that conflict with each other , and they don't work because of cross dependencies. librt.so.1 is needed by (installed) libdrm-2.4.65-2.el6.i686, and many packages repeat for librt.so.1, libutil.so.1, libgmp.so.3, libgmpxx.so.4, liblber-2.4.so.2, libacl.so.1 I've tried the suggestion of running rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest, which completes but does not fix the files. Has anyone run into this i686 / x86_64 dual package conflicting issue before? Any suggestions?

Availability of CentOS 7/8 AMIs through AWS Marketplace
by Marc Jay 10 Jul '20

10 Jul '20

Hi there, Long-time user of CentOS 7 AMIs from the AWS Marketplace. I see that the latest CentOS 7 and all CentOS 8 AMIs are only available outside of the Marketplace ("These images are published outside of the AWS Market Place and are shared directly" - https://wiki.centos.org/Cloud/AWS) I'm really keen to understand if this is short-term situation, or if this is the indefinite future of CentOS AMI releases? There were a number of benefits to the Marketplace model - mainly for us is the ability to use Packer to fetch the latest AMI for the product code, plus also notifications. Are there reasons behind the recent change? Many thanks, Marc

Many motherboards still have an actual serial port that doesn't show up on the edge as a 9-pin, but on the board as a 10-pin header.

I realize this shouldn't happen, the file is a tgz and isn't being modified while being transmitted.

CentOS 8 and webrtc plugin
by Jerry Geis 08 Jul '20

08 Jul '20

I am trying to play with webrtc and gstreamer. libnice - nicesrc/nicesink elements (this is the only build-time dependency) - openssl - dtlsdec/dtlsenc elements - libsrtp2 - srtpdec/srtpenc elements - usrsctp - sctpdec/sctpenc elements (only required if you use data channels). These are dependencies (apparently). The first two I have. How do I get the last two or anyone got webrtc working with CentOS 8 ? Thanks all. Jerry

Generating X configuration files
by Michael Hennebry 07 Jul '20

07 Jul '20

I'm trying to make my computer work with a Fedora 32 live DVD. Video issues make it either crap out or only give me 640x480. Grrrr. Centos 7 is running just fine. I think I could make it go by booting to runlevel 3 and running startx manually. For that to work, I think I need to pass startx the right configuration file. To me, 'tain't obvious what to put in that file. Is there a way to get Centos 7 to generate a configuaration file for me? -- Michael hennebry(a)web.cs.ndsu.NoDak.edu "Sorry but your password must contain an uppercase letter, a number, a haiku, a gang sign, a heiroglyph, and the blood of a virgin." -- someeecards

systemd environment var composed of vars
by Leon Fauster 06 Jul '20

06 Jul '20

Is it somehow possible to use composed ENV vars in a systemd unit file? Simple example, env file has ADDRESS=foo PORT=bar LISTEN=${ADDRESS}:${PORT} putting ${ADDRESS}:${PORT} directly in the unit file works, $LISTEN not. Does systemd supports such var substitution? -- Leon

I login to the server via SSH (cant doit any other way) and anything that I type is slow HTTP sessions timeout waiting for screen redraw. So, the server is acting "slow". server is bare metal. no virtual services. no alarms in the disk raid note: server was restarted because of power failure.

setting kernel IP boot values
by Jerry Geis 02 Jul '20

02 Jul '20

Hi I found this information: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/ht… Specifically: Set the configuration using the ip option on the kernel command line: ip<client-IP-number>:[<server-id>]:<gateway-IP-number>:<netmask>:<client-hostname>:<interface>:{dhcp|dhcp6|auto6|on|any|none|off} dhcp - DHCP configuration dhpc6 - DHCP IPv6 configuration auto6 - automatic IPv6 configuration on, any - any protocol available in the kernel (default) none, off - no autoconfiguration, static network configuration For example: ip=192.168.180.120:192.168.180.100:192.168.180.1:255.255.255.0::enp1s0:off but I am confused. I desire to set IP boot values with DHCP and name of machine say jerry. so I would use ip=::::jerry.domain:eth0:dhcp Is this correct ? Jerry

How to Mirror CentOS8 repository in CentOS7 Server via reposync
by psuresh 02 Jul '20

02 Jul '20

Hi I'm running CentOS7 server as ImageServer and local repository server. And i need to mirror CentOS8 repository (http://mirror.centos.org/centos-8/8.1.1911/AppStream/x86_64/os/ ) in my CentOS7 Server. If i mirror CentOS8 repository using repo sync command in CentOS7 it did not properly mirror centos8 repository, due to that when i install package from CentOS8 client machine getting following error. No available modular metadata for modular package 'python3-lldb-8.0.1-1.module_el8.1.0+215+a01033fb.x86_64', it cannot be installed on the system The downloaded packages were saved in cache until the next successful transaction. You can remove cached packages by executing 'dnf clean packages'. Error: No available modular metadata for modular package Can you please suggest proper way to mirror CentOS8 repository in CentOS7 Server? Regards, Suresh PanneerSelvam

Not getting bootloader installed with CentOS 8 + mdraid
by Chris Adams 01 Jul '20

01 Jul '20

I am trying to use a kickstart to install CentOS 8.2 on a server with a pair of drives with Linux software RAID 1. The install completes, but the resulting system will not boot - I get "Booting from Hard drive C:" from the BIOS (Dell in legacy BIOS mode, not UEFI) and it stops. If I then start the installer in rescue mode and run grub2-install on the two drives, it boots okay. If I take out the RAID config and just install on the first drive, it boots fine - it appears to just be an issue with RAID. I tried my kickstart in a KVM VM with two disks, and it works there (I get RAID and a bootloader). Anybody else run into this? Any ideas? I've been installing from kickstarts for ages, including software RAID, but not CentOS 8 with software RAID until now. -- Chris Adams <linux(a)cmadams.net>

[OT] Bacula offsite replication
by Alessandro Baggi 01 Jul '20

01 Jul '20

Hi everyone, I have updated my backup server to CentOS 8.2. It runs bacula performing backup on disks. I would like to replicate backups on another offsite machine. I read about the ability to configure a new storage daemon in the offsite location and create a Migration/Copy Jobs. If I'm not wrong, it replicates only volumes but not replicate the catalog. I will try this. Another way to replicate the volumes on another server is using rsync. What is your suggestion about this topic? Thank you in advance. Alessandro.

Hi All, I have CentOS 7 has host and CentOS 8 as guest. I ran the command: virsh edit CentOS8 and changed the vgamem to 65536. I Now get higher resolutions in the guest - I select the 4K resolution, all works. Then when I reboot I am back to 1024x768. Any thoughts on getting the C8 guest to keep its screen resolution ?

RPMFusion and NVIDIA driver problem
by Alessandro Baggi 01 Jul '20

01 Jul '20

Hi list, I'm on C8.1 and I'm trying to install NVIDIA driver from rpmfusion-nonfree repository but it returns: package kmod-nvidia-3:440.82-2.el8.x86_64 requires kmod-nvidia-4.18.0-147.el8.x86_64 >= 3:440.82-2.el8, but none of the providers can be installed - conflicting requests - nothing provides kernel < 4.18.0-148.el8 needed by kmod-nvidia-4.18.0-147.el8.x86_64-3:440.82-2.el8.x86_64 (try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages) and uname -r returns: 4.18.0-193.6.3.el8_2.x86_64 Seems that RPMFusion needs an update. Waiting for this there is a way to install this package without fall in problems? Thank you in advance.

I am trying to use CentOS 8 host to boot an image (OS X) that I created using dd. First I tried fdisk -l image_file.img - all looks good so I did fdisk image_file.img - this works - but seems in CentOS 8 fdisk there is no longer a toggle bootable flag option. How do I do that ? Thanks, Jerry

what's the advantage of NetworkManager for server?
by d tbsky 01 Jul '20

01 Jul '20

Hi: I always use network-scripts to start network at EL7. NetworkManager is not as good as network scripts under that OS. but now EL8 said that network-scripts is depreciated. I wonder if I should still use network-scripts to start network? I am afraid there will be new bugs for the network-scripts, like systemd service unit dependency. although it is solid at EL7.

CentOS 7 system running out of available memory, then unusable, network interfaces probably involved
by wwp 30 Jun '20

30 Jun '20

Hello, my CentOS 7 system goes unstable after few days of use, memory consumption growing and never getting freed, until the system slows down to hell (swapping), kills apps, and eventually freezes or reboots itself. This only happens when I have two network interfaces turned on, one wired and one wireless, each to different routers. The hardware: a Dell Precision 7530, SSD, 16GB RAM. HW memory and disk both tested OK by software. According to lspci: 00:1f.6 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation Ethernet Connection (7) I219-LM (rev 10) 6e:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Wireless-AC 9260 (rev 29) The software: I keep this CentOS 7 system up-to-date with the CR repo, excepted the microcode_ctl package, stuck to few versions back (updating it kills the system and potentially causes fs damages). Kernels reproducing the issue (IOW, all): kernel-3.10.0-1062.18.1.el7.x86_64 kernel-3.10.0-1127.el7.x86_64 kernel-3.10.0-1127.8.2.el7.x86_64 kernel-3.10.0-1127.13.1.el7.x86_64 Nothing jumps to my eyes looking at /var/log/messages but this, many occurrences: kernel: nf_conntrack: falling back to vmalloc. I searched the Internet for it, and the few results I found were not bringing any solution and were quite pessimistic WRT to memory freeing, am I wrong? Regards, -- wwp https://useplaintext.email/

Adding root CA certificates for use by NSS applications?
by James Pearson 29 Jun '20

29 Jun '20

I'm trying to get a third party application to use the root CA certificate of an SSL proxy - but can't work out how to install the cert for use by all users on CentOS 7 I have the proxy vendor's supplied CA cert in PEM format I can install the cert in a user's home directory using 'certutil' - and the application works OK - but I would like to do 'something' to install this cert somewhere central that will be picked up by all users After a bit of Googling, I've found that by default, EL7 uses 'p11-kit-trust.so' (from the p11-kit-trust package) as a drop-in replacement for the nss supplied 'libnssckbi.so' (via 'alternatives') - which, I believe, should be able to pick up CA certs installed under /etc/pki/ca-trust/source/anchors/ Strace'ing the app, I can see it reading the files under /etc/pki/ca-trust/source/... including the required CA cert - but the app fails to connect - but I have no idea what might be wrong ... Am I missing something obvious here? Is there an easier way to achieve what I want? Thanks James Pearson

CentOS 8 - Fail to mount ${HOME}
by Yair Garfinkel 29 Jun '20

29 Jun '20

Hi, We have a large amount of CentOS 7 here and when a user logs in to any of them, his home directory is mounted of the network. When we tried to do this with CentOS 8, the user logs in but his home directory was created locally on the machine. - I have already disables this "nice" feature by running: [root@lab_cnt08 ~]# *authconfig --disablemkhomedir --update* - Both CentOS 7 and CentOS 8 machines reside in the same domain. Any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated. Thanks, *Yair Garfinkel*

Im following the instructions found on RHEL 8 documentation. https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/ht… And when I'm trying to pass the command sudo virt-xml Windows10 --edit --features hyperv_relaxed=on,hyperv_vapic=on,hyperv_spinlocks=on,hyperv_spinlocks_ retries=8191,hyperv_vpindex=on,hyperv_runtime=on,hyperv_synic=on,hyperv _stimer=on,hyperv_frequencies=on I get the following error. ERROR Unknown --features options: ['hyperv_vpindex', 'hyperv_runtime', 'hyperv_stimer', 'hyperv_frequencies'] I can manually add the options on the xml file but i was wondering if the feature arguments are removed and they have no effect or if I'm missing something. Thanks in advance ps.Im running centos 8.1 since 8.2. broke my wifi.

C7, mdadm generating selinux warnings
by Fred Smith 27 Jun '20

27 Jun '20

Hi! I'm getting these frequently. several times I've done the steps listed there to suppress the messages, but I keep getting them. Anyone got a good idea how to deal with this? Thanks in advance! ---------------------------- SELinux is preventing mdadm from 'read, open' accesses on the file /var/log/rear/rear-fcshome.log.lockless. ***** Plugin restorecon (99.5 confidence) suggests ************************ If you want to fix the label. /var/log/rear/rear-fcshome.log.lockless default label should be var_log_t. Then you can run restorecon. The access attempt may have been stopped due to insufficient permissions to access a parent directory in which case try to change the following command accordingly. Do # /sbin/restorecon -v /var/log/rear/rear-fcshome.log.lockless ***** Plugin catchall (1.49 confidence) suggests ************************** If you believe that mdadm should be allowed read open access on the rear-fcshome.log.lockless file by default. Then you should report this as a bug. You can generate a local policy module to allow this access. Do allow this access for now by executing: # ausearch -c 'mdadm' --raw | audit2allow -M my-mdadm # semodule -i my-mdadm.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:mdadm_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 Target Context system_u:object_r:cron_log_t:s0 -- ---- Fred Smith -- fredex(a)fcshome.stoneham.ma.us ----------------------------- I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. ------------------------------ Philippians 4:13 -------------------------------

Softwarecollections and EL8
by Leon Fauster 25 Jun '20

25 Jun '20

Just a general question. Will software collections be available in EL8? Does RH plan to provide such alternatives? Or are Application Streams the new way to follow (I known that both are not equivalent and that they address different scenarios). https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/SCLo/CollectionsList -- Leon

php 5.6 on CentOS 6
by H 25 Jun '20

25 Jun '20

I am in the process of moving various apps and data off a CentOS 6 server to a new server running CentOS 7. As part of the migration process I need to upgrade an app and corresponding data files which requires php 5.6. I do have php 5.5 (and 5.4) installed since earlier but now tried to install php 5.6 from SCL which failed. This is the package I tried: https://www.softwarecollections.org/en/scls/rhscl/rh-php56/ but the error message is that there is no package 5.6. Is this correct and what would the recommended procedure then be since I do need 5.6 for this. Use Remi's collection or something else? I was hoping SCL would have it since it is well-tried and easy to sandbox on the computer. Thank you. H

Blog article about the state of CentOS
by Nicolas Kovacs 24 Jun '20

24 Jun '20

Hi, I just read this blog article from austrian Linux expert Michael Kofler. For those among you who don't know the guy, he's my home country's number one Linux expert (known as "der Kofler") and most notably the author of a series of excellent books about Linux over the last 25 years. https://kofler.info/centos-8-wertlose-langzeitunterstuetzung/ Disclaimer : I've been a CentOS user (and fan) since 4.x, I'm using it on all my servers, and yes, I know the difference between upstream RHEL and CentOS. The article is in german, but the statistics graph is eloquent enough for the non-german-speaking users. It focuses on updates for CentOS 8, and more exactly the extended periods of time where there have been no updates available. The author's theory ("unspoken truth"): while it's a positive thing that Red Hat is sponsoring CentOS, the amount of sponsoring is just insufficient enough so that the product is "starved to death" by Red Hat (e. g. IBM) to encourage users to move to RHEL. The author's conclusion is quite severe: in the current state of things, CentOS 8 is not recommendable for production as updates are lagging too much behind. While CentOS 7 may be usable, CentOS 8 has been "degraded to teaching and testing purposes". Still according to Mister Kofler, this "sorry state of things" will probably encourage users to move to Oracle Linux, the other big RHEL clone. After some hesitation, I decided to share this on the mailing list. Since this raises some concerns, I'd be curious to have your take on this.

Wrong version of php
by H 24 Jun '20

24 Jun '20

It's been a while since I updated to php72 on this machine and there is some setting I must have forgotten. Apache, root and a user automatically get php72 when I run php in a terminal window, however, a php script picks up the wrong version of php, ie php54 and the version of php in /usr/bin/php is indeed version 5.4. I have googled without finding the answer but how do I make sure /all/ processes use php72 rather than the default 54 in CentOS 7? Surely there must be a better way than overwriting /usr/bin/php. What have I forgotten to do? Thank you.

Hi, I am looking for an offline accounting package recommendation, please. I enjoyed using Xero accounting, but need something that's offline, and where the data remains my property. Having used Quickbooks on Windows in the past, I am looking for something similar. Any recommendations? -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers Website: http://www.rudiahlers.co.za

firewall questions
by Chuck Campbell 23 Jun '20

23 Jun '20

I'm running Centos 7.8.2003, with firewalld. I was getting huge numbers of ssh attempts per day from a few specific ip blocks. The offenders are 45.0.0.0/24, 49.0.0.0/24, 51.0.0.0/24, 111.0.0.0/24 and 118.0.0.0/24, and they amounted to a multiple thousands of attempts per day. I installed and configured fail2ban, but still saw a lot of attempts in the logs, and the ipset created was filling up. I did some more research, and decided to use a few rich rules to block these attempts. I currently have these in place: #firewall-cmd --list-all public (active) target: default icmp-block-inversion: no interfaces: p3p1 sources: services: dhcpv6-client ftp http https imap imaps pop3 pop3s smtp-submission smtps ssh ports: 110/tcp 995/tcp 143/tcp 993/tcp 25/tcp 21/tcp protocols: masquerade: no forward-ports: source-ports: icmp-blocks: rich rules: rule family="ipv4" source address="49.0.0.0/24" reject rule family="ipv4" source address="51.0.0.0/24" reject rule family="ipv4" source address="111.0.0.0/24" reject But I still get hundreds of attempts reported in my fail2ban logs from these ip blocks. How is it that the rich rules don't drop these packets before pam/ssh/fail2ban ever get to see them? There must be some precedence in the firewalling I don't understand. -chuck -- ACCEL Services, Inc.| Specialists in Gravity, Magnetics | (713)993-0671 ph. | and Integrated Interpretation | (713)993-0608 fax 448 W. 19th St. #325| Since 1992 | (713)306-5794 cell Houston, TX, 77008 | Chuck Campbell | campbell(a)accelinc.com | President & Senior Geoscientist | "Integration means more than having all the maps at the same scale!"

Hi, Alexander Thanks for your reply . Because we using CentOS7.6 with kernel 3.10.0-957.21.3.el7.x86_64 in production . We want to know which version of CentOS(or CentOS7.6) started to support AMD ROME CPUs and is it necessary to upgrade ? Thanks.

About support for AMD ROME CPUs
by 肖正刚 21 Jun '20

21 Jun '20

Hi, all We use AMD Rome CPUs, like EPYC 7452. RHEL said that RHEL 7.6.6 began to support these cpus(detials: https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/amd) , but we found that CentOS7.6 with kernel 3.10.0-957.21.3.el7.x86_64 also works fine. So, my questions are: 1) Is there any place that i can find the cpu support info? 2) Dose the kernel 3.10.0-957.21.3.el7.x86_64 from CentOS7.6 already contains changes made by kernel 3.10.0-957.27.2.el7 from RHEL7.6? 3) Does the kernel update has a release note or something like that and where to find ? Any suggestions will help ! Thanks

Installing owncloud on CentOS 7 server
by H 19 Jun '20

19 Jun '20

I transitioning an owncloud installation from a C6 server to a new C7 server and used yum install owncloud to install it on the C7 server. I expected /var/www/owncloud to be generated but alas not. Quick Googling just showed examples of installing from the latest owncloud repository but not using yum. Have I missed something obvious when using yum to install?

Updating microcode_ctl froze Centos7
by Robin Lee 19 Jun '20

19 Jun '20

Today when I ran yum update two packages came up microcode_ctl and unbound-libs. The updating process went fine until it outputted Running transaction Updating : 2:microcode_ctl-2.1-61.6.el7_8.x86_64 then it just froze. I could no longer ssh to the machine and the console was just blank. I had to shut down it hard. It came back up seemingly fine. But yum update doesn't work anymore. It says "Error importing repomd.xml from base/7/x86_64: Damaged repomd.xml file" I looked at the logs, but journalctl only shows the latest boot on this machine. So I guess I have three questions - Any idea what happened with the update process? - How can I repair repomd.xml? - How do I configure journalctl to store more boots? /Robin

Bootable USB keys : which brand ?
by Nicolas Kovacs 19 Jun '20

19 Jun '20

Hi, In my daily work I'm mainly using USB keys for work : one with CentOS 7, one with OpenSUSE Leap 15.1, one with Slax Live for data recovery purposes, one with Ghost4Linux and one with FreeDOS which I use for flashing the odd BIOS. Last week I bought a set of three flashy colored USB keys in a local shop. To my surprise, none of them seem to be able to boot anything. When I write a bootable image (CentOS, OpenSUSE, whatever) to any one of the USB keys, the USB key boot option doesn't show up on any one of my sandbox PCs. Looks like I just learnt the hard way that some USB keys can't be used for installation purposes. As far as I can tell, I need a set of 8 GB keys so the biggest image, the CentOS 8 ISO, can fit. Can you recommend a no-nonsense USB key brand which I can use to make a set of USB installation keys ?

Can't access Squirrelmail on Centos 8
by Jay Hart 19 Jun '20

19 Jun '20

Good evening, I have not able able to run the http://ip-addr/src/configtest.php script, nor access Squirrelmail. Looking for suggestions on what I might have missed. When I try either http://ip-... or https://ip-..., I get the following reply Forbidden You don't have permission to access /webmail/src/configtest.php on this server. I got squirrelmail installed in /usr/share/squirrelmail and 'configured' to work (using ./conf.pl). This setup below is about the same setup on my Centos 6 box. I'm thinking my issue is more Apache configuration related than Squirrelmail. **Apache is running with no issues** Below are some of my settings in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf Apache ServerRoot is /etc/httpd Apache DocumentRoot is /www Further parameters within httpd.conf include: # # Relax access to content within /var/www. # <Directory "/www"> AllowOverride None # Allow open access: Require all granted </Directory> # Further relax access to the default document root: <Directory "/www"> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None # # Controls who can get stuff from this server. # Require all granted </Directory> In /etc/httpd/conf.modules.d I created a file called 16-squirrelmail.conf That file contains the following information: # SquirrelMail is a webmail package written in PHP. # Alias /webmail /usr/share/squirrelmail <Directory "/usr/share/squirrelmail/plugins/squirrelspell/modules"> #<Directory "/usr/share/squirrelmail"> AllowOverride None Require all denied </Directory> # this section makes squirrelmail use https connections only, for this you # need to have mod_ssl installed. If you want to use unsecure http # connections, just remove this section: #6-12-2020 commented out next five lines to test sqmail in http mode only <Directory /usr/share/squirrelmail> RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} </Directory> Any suggestions????

Compile gnutls yo install samba-4.12.3
by Rommel Rodriguez Toirac 17 Jun '20

17 Jun '20

Hello all; Has anyone installed samba4 from sources (samba-4.12.3.tar.gz) on CentOS 7? I explain the problem: to install samba-4.12.3 you need to install a version equal to or greater than 3.4.7 of gnutls; this (gnutls) depends on nettle and gmp. I am trying to install gnutls-3.6.14; I already have gmp (gmp-6.2.0) and nettle (nettle-3.6) installed (compiled from sources), but gnutls doesn't want to install, it tells me "Libnettle 3.4.1 was not found" when I run the ./configure Nettle is installed in /usr/local/include/nettle (all .h) and in /usr/local/lib64/libnettle.s0.8.0 I created a symbolic link for /usr/lib64 from /usr/local/lib64/libnettle.s0.8.0 as libnettle.so and libnettle.so.8; I ran the gnutls ./configure again, but it keeps saying it can't find libnettle 3.4.1 How can I do? Has anyone got CentOS 7 and samba-4.12.3 installed and fixed this situation? -- Rommel Rodriguez Toirac rommelrt(a)nauta.cu

firewall help request
by david 17 Jun '20

17 Jun '20

Folks I'm struggling with my firewall settings, and would appreciate some help. I have a gateway machine (currently Centos 7 with IPV4 only) with two NICs. One is connected to the internet, the other to an internal network (10.0.0.0/24) of mixed hardware (windows7, android tablets, android phones, linux boxes) using NAT. I wish to block all outgoing connects to any external IP address on port 22 (ssh) originating from any internal machine except one (which has a known internal IP address). I've tried some commands using 'iptables' to accomplish this, but so far have failed. If anyone has a suggestion, I'd really appreciate it. In addition, a suitable version for 'firewalld' could be useful, as an upgrade to Centos 8 is in plan. Examples of what I've tried, and then tested. None of them stopped an outgoing SSH from an internal system. iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -s 10.0.0.0/24 -j DROP iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -s 10.0.0.0/24 -j DROP Much thanks David

At your suggestion, the command became iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -i enp3s0 -s 10.0.0.0/24 -j DROP where enp3s0 is the internal NIC with address 10.0.0.1. I'm assuming that your advice about LAN represents the internal network because on most routers, it is, and WAN is the internet connection. And ssh worked :-( unfortunately I know that many ISPs block outgoing port 25, so I know this is do-able. David

Simple scan in CentOS 7
by H 16 Jun '20

16 Jun '20

I just installed C7 on a new computer and despite Simple Scan being installed as part of C7, I have not been able to get it to recognize my Canon scanner connected to a USB port. I did have it running on another computer with C7 so there should not be any inherent issues. On a lark I installed gscan2pdf and sane-backends-drivers-scanners and sane-find-scanner found it: found USB scanner (vendor=0x04a9 [Canon], product=0x1908 [CanoScan]) at libusb:001:010 I perused my notes for the old computer but did not see I installed any additional software to get it going but I might be wrong. What have I missed? Thank you.

iwlwifi problem after Centos 8.2 update
by Georgios 16 Jun '20

16 Jun '20

Hi! I get high cpu usage on my laptop (yes im running Centos on my laptop) after my last update. At the beginning i though it was libvrtd but after stopping it gnome monitor keep showing high cpu usage although i couldnt find the app that was responsible for it with the top command. I searched my log files and I saw alot of iwlwifi message. I had to turn off wifi in order to stop high cpu usage. Any ideas how to solve it? Thanks in advance! dmesg command gives me the following output: 649.668600] RSP: 002b:00007fffaa691d60 EFLAGS: 00000293 ORIG_RAX: 000000000000002e [ 649.668602] RAX: ffffffffffffffda RBX: 000000000000000e RCX: 00007f21aecdeb07 [ 649.668603] RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 00007fffaa691db0 RDI: 000000000000000e [ 649.668604] RBP: 00007fffaa691db0 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 0000000000000000 [ 649.668605] R10: 0000000000000012 R11: 0000000000000293 R12: 0000000000000000 [ 649.668605] R13: 0000000000000000 R14: 00007fffaa691f68 R15: 00007fffaa691f5c [ 649.756674] iwlwifi 0000:00:14.3: Found debug destination: EXTERNAL_DRAM [ 649.756676] iwlwifi 0000:00:14.3: Found debug configuration: 0 [ 649.757247] iwlwifi 0000:00:14.3: loaded firmware version 46.6bf1df06.0 op_mode iwlmvm [ 649.757275] iwlwifi 0000:00:14.3: Detected Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless AC 9462, REV=0x318 [ 649.765604] iwlwifi 0000:00:14.3: Applying debug destination EXTERNAL_DRAM [ 649.765843] iwlwifi 0000:00:14.3: Allocated 0x00400000 bytes for firmware monitor.

Today's Topics: 1. Release for CentOS Linux 8 (2004) (Brian Stinson) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Mon, 15 Jun 2020 11:29:32 -0500 From: Brian Stinson <bstinson(a)centosproject.org> To: centos-announce(a)centos.org Subject: [CentOS-announce] Release for CentOS Linux 8 (2004) Message-ID: <1491307c-4a76-1bc2-7375-9c85cdff3214(a)centosproject.org> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8 Release for CentOS Linux 8 (2004) We are pleased to announce the general availability of CentOS Linux 8. Effectively immediately, this is the current release for CentOS Linux 8 and is tagged as 2004, derived from Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.2 Source Code. As always, read through the Release Notes at : http://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOS8.2004? - these notes contain important information about the release and details about some of the content inside the release from the CentOS QA team. These notes are updated constantly to include issues and incorporate feedback from the users. ---------- Updates, Sources, and DebugInfos Updates released since the upstream release are all posted, across all architectures. We strongly recommend every user apply all updates, including the content released today, on your existing CentOS Linux 8 machine by just running 'dnf update'. As with all CentOS Linux 8 components, this release was built from sources hosted at git.centos.org. Sources will be available from vault.centos.org in their own dedicated directories to match the corresponding binary RPMs. Since there is far less traffic to the CentOS source RPMs compared with the binary RPMs, we are not putting this content on the main mirror network. If users wish to mirror this content they can do so using the reposync command available in the yum/dnf-utils package. All CentOS source RPMs are signed with the same key used to sign their binary counterparts. Developers and end users looking at inspecting and contributing patches to the CentOS Linux distro will find the code hosted at git.centos.org far simpler to work against. Details on how to best consume those are documented along with a quick start at : http://wiki.centos.org/Sources Debuginfo packages have been signed and pushed. Yum configs shipped in the new release file will have all the context required for debuginfo to be available on every CentOS Linux install. This release supersedes all previously released content for CentOS Linux 8, and therefore we highly encourage all users to upgrade their machines. Information on different upgrade strategies and how to handle stale content is included in the Release Notes. Note that older content, obsoleted by newer versions of the same applications are trim'd off from repos like extras/ and centosplus/ ---------- Download We produced the following installer images for CentOS Linux 8 # CentOS-8.2.2004-x86_64-minimal.iso: 1718616064 bytes SHA256 (CentOS-8.2.2004-x86_64-minimal.iso) = 47ab14778c823acae2ee6d365d76a9aed3f95bb8d0add23a06536b58bb5293c0 # CentOS-8.2.2004-x86_64-boot.iso: 654311424 bytes SHA256 (CentOS-8.2.2004-x86_64-boot.iso) = c67876a5602faa17f68b40ccf2628799b87454aa67700f0f57eec15c6ccdd98c # CentOS-8.2.2004-x86_64-dvd1.iso: 8231321600 bytes SHA256 (CentOS-8.2.2004-x86_64-dvd1.iso) = c87a2d81d67bbaeaf646aea5bedd70990078ec252fc52f5a7d65ff609871e255 # CentOS-8.2.2004-aarch64-minimal.iso: 1410226176 bytes SHA256 (CentOS-8.2.2004-aarch64-minimal.iso) = 621d08902bfd7ca8437cd536b86631c87ddc3e36a530abc77011d230401eb158 # CentOS-8.2.2004-aarch64-boot.iso: 579823616 bytes SHA256 (CentOS-8.2.2004-aarch64-boot.iso) = 76a9a5f84ac9581fee079d7154bf68f72661c9d941e9ab3143bccc760c23eecc # CentOS-8.2.2004-aarch64-dvd1.iso: 5988872192 bytes SHA256 (CentOS-8.2.2004-aarch64-dvd1.iso) = 9d2f066edfc3820fc9e4c6d52f01489a3ed57515cf608773e2b8a04f1903c838 # CentOS-8.2.2004-ppc64le-minimal.iso: 1493422080 bytes SHA256 (CentOS-8.2.2004-ppc64le-minimal.iso) = 1d6802ce5581bd6ae22d13e491dfad65b7a32166f1484e8d6c532cd4cd7e18db # CentOS-8.2.2004-ppc64le-boot.iso: 628408320 bytes SHA256 (CentOS-8.2.2004-ppc64le-boot.iso) = a039bc592e416b97914b6c99cc8cb070d6b35742dbcb7b6eccff55291659c664 # CentOS-8.2.2004-ppc64le-dvd1.iso: 7080738816 bytes SHA256 (CentOS-8.2.2004-ppc64le-dvd1.iso) = 1a94eff60fd016ea8efb1d592eda85f0b5edde2ff2ad4c77db546ab90392421e Information for the torrent files and sums are available at http://mirror.centos.org/centos/8/isos/ -------- Additional Images Vagrant and Generic Cloud images are available at: http://cloud.centos.org/centos/8/ Amazon Machine Images for Amazon Web Services are published by ID into a number of regions.

The best place to start for new users is at http://wiki.centos.org/GettingHelp We are also on social media, you can find the project: on Twitter at? :http://twitter.com/CentOSProject on Facebook at :https://www.facebook.com/groups/centosproject/ on LinkedIn at :https://www.linkedin.com/groups/22405 And you will find the core team and a majority of the contributors on irc, on freenode.net in #centos ; talking about the finer points of distribution engineering and platform enablement. ---------- Contributors This release was made possible due to the hard work of many people, foremost on that list are the Red Hat Engineers for producing a great distribution and the CentOS QA team, without them CentOS Linux would look very different. Many of the team went further and beyond expectations to bring this release to you, and I would like to thank everyone for their help. We are also looking for people to get involved with the QA process in CentOS, if you would like to join this please introduce yourself on the centos-devel list (http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-devel? ). Finally, please join me in thanking the donors who all make this possible for us. Enjoy the fresh new release!

smb protocol version
by Christopher Wensink 16 Jun '20

16 Jun '20

I have a handful of Linux Servers, running Centos 6.10, and 6.8 with the main host running openvz w/ Centos 6.10 as the main OS. Two of the guests are running samba, sharing directories out to windows clients. I'm in the process of migrating servers over to vmware, using Centos 7.8. How can I determine what smb protocol version is being used in the shares for each server? I don't see the protocol specified anywhere in smb.conf? Chris

Re: [CentOS] C8 install problems SOLVED
by ejm 15 Jun '20

15 Jun '20

I burned a total of 7.55Gb from an ISO image to a dual-layer HP DVD+R disc. I got a bootable USB stick containing 8.1 and it's 7.65 Gb so apparently my ISO image file is messed up. I was able to install C8 just fine from the USB stick, so marking this as solved. Thanks, --Ed

/etc/networks file
by Jay Hart 15 Jun '20

15 Jun '20

I am having some network connectivity issues that manifest itself through ping, wget, dnf, etc. The symptoms are intermittent ability to ping, was wget, or connect to repositories. Where this inquiry is going is: If your internal network is using 192.168.1 or 10..50.10, what should be in /etc/networks. My current file contains: default 0.0.0.0 loopback 127.0.0.0 link-local 169.254.0.0 And I'm pretty sure this is the default OS installed contents. I don't think this is related to my connectivity issue, just curious about what this file does. My old server (which is working just fine) has the same content in its /etc/networks file so not configuring this does not seem to matter one way or the other. If one were using 192.168.1.x network , assume 'default' should be 192.168.1.0. 'Link-local' should match??? Thanks, Jay

halt versus shutdown
by Leon Fauster 15 Jun '20

15 Jun '20

Working with different OSs can be quite challenging (mentally :-)). I wonder why the command "halt" has not same result between EL6 and EL8. To shutdown the vm or workstation in EL8 i must use "shutdown now". Who mandates this behavior in terms of configuration file? -- Leon

Modifying username
by Jay Hart 15 Jun '20

15 Jun '20

I modified a users name on my system. From ABCLast, to ALast (used as an example). I modified the username, then the group name of the user (to align with the new name), and then I moved the users home directory from /home/ABCLast, to /home/ALast. Then using vipw, edited the home directory to use /home/ALast. When I got finished editing the passwd file, I got the following message: You have modified /etc/passwd. You may need to modify /etc/shadow for consistency. I don't know what to do here. Need some guidance please. lastly, did I miss anything here? Any other steps I need to do to get this user squared away due to the name change? Thanks, Jay

pppoe
by Joe 12 Jun '20

12 Jun '20

Hello, CentOS 8 dropped the rp-pppoe package. My attempts with NetworkManager-ppp already failed because it seems that it is not possible to use a VLAN as a device. Please, how does it work under C8 to set up a pppoe connection (German Telekom, VDSL (VLAN 7 required), ZTE modem). Thanks. Joe

Minicom and Ncurses
by Nicolas Kovacs 12 Jun '20

12 Jun '20

Hi, I have to do some maintenance on a CentOS 7 proxy installed on a routerboard without a video card. The only way to access this machine directly is via Minicom and serial port. I'm using NetworkManager TUI (nmtui) to configure network interfaces, but Ncurses rendering in Minicom works in the sense that chickens fly and horses swim. What you get is a forest of question marks with a few barely recognizable options lost in between. Is there some magical trick to render Ncurses interfaces correctly in Minicom ?

I am running C7 host and pulse audio. I have a Win 10 guest with ICH9 audio. It works - but I hear artifacts. Anything to do to help audio be flawless under guest VM ? Currently I was just on youtube and playing a song. nothing special. Plenty of resources on the host. The guest has 8G ram and 8 CPU. Thanks Jerry

In CentOS 8 new install, old /home, .desktop opens in gedit
by Lamar Owen 10 Jun '20

10 Jun '20

Ok, hoping someone has seen this or at least knows where to look. I have been waiting around a bit to upgrade my system to CentOS 8, and actually wanted to wait on 8.2, but had an opportunity this week to actually do the work, so took the opportunity. Here was my process: 1.) Installed CentOS 8.1.1911 on a spare mSATA SSD in my spare M6700 laptop. Installed the RPMfusion nVidia drivers, the PowerTools repo, set up the extensions for Places, Applications, etc, and got it prepped to accept my /home disk. 2.) After complete backups, physically moved my /home disk from the CentOS 7 M6700 to the CentOS 8 M6700. /home is on a LUKS LVM lv; got all the mount options and encryption options setup to start on boot. All of that now works, even though it took a bit of wrangling (if the filesystem mount is set to start up at boot without the nofail option BUT the encryption option is left at the User Default setting, it will not work!). Did a complete SELinux relabel (touch /.autorelabel and reboot). Moved the default GNOME config dirs over to the old /home; don't want a lot of cruft left over from the C7 install (which has been upgraded over the years from C6, Fedora 14, and earlier, and it was time to get rid of some cruft, I'm sure). After booting back up with the old /home in place, verified the GNOME extensions settings I had set up after the new install. All looks good, and working like it's supposed to so far. 3.) Moved over the Win10 and Win7 virtual machines, all of that works fine. 4.) Started installing my everyday programs, beginning with Harrison Mixbus. The program put its menu entry in place; all good. However, when I go to double click on the .desktop shortcut, it opens in gedit. Hmm, this ain't quite right. This worked fine on C7 in GNOME Standard mode. So, at this point, the Mixbus_6.0.702.desktop file is on my desktop, it's in ~/Desktop with executable permissions and is owned by the correct user, but right-clicking on it does not bring up the choice to 'Allow Launching.' The GNOME Extension 'Desktop Icons' is installed and is active. I've tried a whole lot of suggestions, but wanted to see if anyone here had seen this before and has solved the problem to allow launching of the .desktop file as it is supposed to do. Just knowing that 'it works for you' actually is helpful, especially if we can figure out what is different from my install to yours (SELinux context, permissions, etc). Just knowing where to look would be helpful; and I'm going to diff my old GNOME config from my /home backup to the fresh as-installed config.... gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons-3.32.1-10.el8.noarch is installed.

C8 install problems
by ejm 10 Jun '20

10 Jun '20

Hi all, I am trying to install C8 from a DVD I made onto a 1Tb disc partitioned into 2 ext4 partitions. The first partition contains C7 which I installed via a DVD. Trying to install C8 yields an error indicating the file /dev/root is missing. I've checked the SHA256 sum for the ISO for CentOS 8.1 1911 and it checks out fine. I've burned a couple of different DVDs and get the same error about /dev/root missing from both. I burned both DVDs using the PC app PowerISO. Is that potentially a problem ? Looking at the log file of the C8 install I see before the message about /dev/root, that the file /etc/iscsi/initiatorname.iscsi is missing --and /sbin/modprobe -bv sg failed w/ exit code 1 I am doing the install with the target 1Tb disc attached, via a USB cable from a SATA docking station, to a ASUS PC running Windows 7. I boot up via the DVD just fine on the PC, but I've not been able to get past the errors from iSCSI and /dev/root. I do see a message at the very beginning of the install that the hardware family 12h is "not supported upstream". I'm not sure if that message is important, or a red herring. Is it possible that the Orico SATA docking station (model 6619) has been dropped in C8 ? Any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, --Ed

yum/dnf diff
by Kenneth Porter 10 Jun '20

10 Jun '20

I'm used to using "git diff" and "svn diff" to view changes in my development system. Is there a similar thing that works with changes between a repository package and the installed RPM? Ie. something that shows the changes in /etc hinted at by "rpm -V". I'm already using etckeeper+git but that would combine changes from updates with my own modifications. The only thing I've found so far is a rather manual procedure: <https://serverfault.com/questions/378439/getting-diffs-for-file-changes-det…>

Switching between keyboards in CentOS 7 using the MATE desktop
by H 09 Jun '20

09 Jun '20

I switch between three keyboards, two western ones and Chinese Pinyin entry. I have fcitx installed to switch between Pinyin and standard entry and use the keyboard switching in MATE to switch between keyboards. While I originally believed there was a bug in fcitx since switching between entry fields in firefox, chromium and thunderbird using the non-default keyboard always switched me back to the default keyboard, this even when hitting ENTER in a Chromium entryfield, I now believe the problem might lie in MATE or CentOS. There is no problem remembering whether a particular program is configured by me to use Pinyin input or not so that seems to work fine. Can anyone else confirm this issue? Might it be a configuration issue on my end? By the way, I use CTRL-SHIFT+RIGHT-SHIFT to switch between keyboards.

firewalld / iptables / nftables
by Leon Fauster 09 Jun '20

09 Jun '20

Despite that the migration of our applications comes with a significant workload. It seems that also every aspect of common services had changed with EL8. In EL8 firewalld uses nftables as backend. I wonder why iptables does not list any rules while also configured to use nftables as backend. # iptables -V iptables v1.8.2 (nf_tables) # firewall-cmd --list-all |egrep -o '22|ssh' ssh # nft list ruleset | egrep -o '22|ssh' ssh # iptables -L -n | egrep -o '22|ssh' <EMPTY> Any hints? -- Leon

Postfix restrictions
by Nicolas Kovacs 09 Jun '20

09 Jun '20

Hi, I'm currently fine-tuning my mail server (Postfix and Dovecot on CentOS 7). SPF, DKIM and DMARC work fine, now I'd like to limit the spam tsunami. Besides the official Postfix documentation, I've read a few articles about Postfix spam restrictions, namely these : https://www.linuxbabe.com/mail-server/block-email-spam-postfix https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/postfix_restrictions After some experimenting, here's what I currently have on my test server: --8<----- /etc/postfix/main.cf ----------------------------- ... smtpd_helo_required = yes smtpd_helo_restrictions = permit_mynetworks, permit_sasl_authenticated, check_helo_access hash:/etc/postfix/helo_access reject_invalid_helo_hostname, reject_non_fqdn_helo_hostname, reject_unknown_helo_hostname smtpd_sender_restrictions = permit_mynetworks, permit_sasl_authenticated, check_sender_access hash:/etc/postfix/sender_access, reject_unknown_sender_domain, reject_unknown_reverse_client_hostname, reject_unknown_client_hostname smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_mynetworks, permit_sasl_authenticated, check_client_access hash:/etc/postfix/rbl_override, reject_rhsbl_helo dbl.spamhaus.org, reject_rhsbl_reverse_client dbl.spamhaus.org, reject_rhsbl_sender dbl.spamhaus.org, reject_rbl_client zen.spamhaus.org --8<-------------------------------------------------------- Before committing this configuration to my main server, I thought I'd share this configuration on the list. Maybe the Postfix gurus among you have the odd comment to make. My aim is simply to eliminate as much spam as possible (that is, before adding SpamAssassin) while keeping false positives to a minimum. Any suggestions ?
