Recommendation for 10 gigabit NICs on CentOS8
by Strahil Nikolov 09 Feb '21

09 Feb '21

Hi All, can you share what kind of old NICs do you use on CentOS 8 (Stream or not , it doesn't matter) without any issues? I was looking at ebay and I found some pretty old Mellanox "ConnectX" or "ConnectX-2" but I seriously doubt they will work on CentOS 8. Any proposals are also welcome. I don't care of the brand as long as it is PCIe and is supported by the vanilla kernel. Best Regards, Strahil Nikolov

firewalld - same source in different zones
by Łukasz Posadowski 08 Feb '21

08 Feb '21

Hi. I have a little trouble with firewalld. I'm trying to open some ports for monitoring server, but it's in the same network as "home" zone: Monitored host (192.168.111.60): lukasz @ strategie 17:52:19 ~ $ -> sudo firewall-cmd --get-active home sources: 192.168.111.0/24 (open ports 22, 80, 443) monitoring sources: 192.168.111.19 (open ports: 5666) public interfaces: ens18 (no open ports) --------------------------------------------------- Monitoring host (192.168.111.19): lukasz @ potemkin 17:57:25 ~ $ -> telnet strategie.ping.local 5666 Trying 192.168.111.60... telnet: connect to address 192.168.111.60: No route to host lukasz @ potemkin 17:57:26 ~ $ -> telnet strategie.ping.local 80 Trying 192.168.111.60... Connected to strategie.ping.local. Escape character is '^]'. ^] telnet> Connection closed. --------------------------------------------------- I think there are conflicting rules on a monitored host, that: - prevent access to 5666 from 192.168.111.0/24, - give access to 5666 from 192.168.111.19 and packets from potemkin are routed trough a home zone. I really would like to have dedicated "monitor" zone. Is there a way to give "monitor" zone more priority, than "home"? I may end with OpenVPN on potemkin and use 172.30.25.0/24 for monitoring, but, apart from encryption aspect, it seems a little excessive. Thank You. -- Łukasz Posadowski

Challenging times in trying to access oracle Linux documentation
by Shamim Shahriar 07 Feb '21

07 Feb '21

Good afternoon everyone, hope you all are well. Apologies if this is considered unwelcome -- asking oracle question in centos group -- but a lot of centos Vs oracle is going on here so hoping this will not be shot down. I am unable to access any of the oracle documentation I need, as it keeps on asking for support identifier number, which, as far as I can tell, is only available if I purchase an expensive support subscription. Even obtaining a free oracle cloud account does not give you any access. I was trying to access oracle FreeIPA setup how to documentation, and even after many emails work oracle support over several weeks -- no resolution! They are not even clear as to what I need to do to obtain access -- all they are saying is I need a SI number!!! Has anyone experienced that or is it me having the issue? If I have to pay subscription, why not continue with RHEL subscription anyway? Would appreciate if someone could please confirm. Best regards Shamim

udev rules & USB devices - ignored at boot
by lejeczek 07 Feb '21

07 Feb '21

Hi guys, I have an Ethernet USB adapter for which udev executes my custom rules but!... udev does it only at plug-in event and not! when the USB stays plugged in during a reboot, then same rules are ignored (or some other problem results in udev failure to do the same when device is plugged to a running system). My system is just an average box with a Ryzen on a B550 platform. Anybody sees this reproduce? many thanks, L.

Which bug tracker should I use to report things to CentOS ? (recap)
by Fabian Arrotin 05 Feb '21

05 Feb '21

With some moving parts within the CentOS Project, some people are now confused about where to report things, as https://bugs.centos.org isn't the only bugs/tickets tracker, so let's just have a quick recap so that people aren't confused anymore ? :) # CentOS Stream (all kind of tickets) see https://wiki.centos.org/FAQ/CentOSStream#Where_do_I_report_bugs.3F So basically https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=Red%20Hat%20Enterprise%20… # CentOS Infra, CBS, SIGs, mirror, CI, etc see previous mail : https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/2020-August/055980.html # All the rest (CentOS Linux pkgs, etc) https://bugs.centos.org Hope that it helps , as we have people asking on irc the status of a ticket that was filed in wrong tracker (and so also not correct category as for example infra categories were removed/archived on https://bugs.centos.org) and not reviewed. -- Fabian Arrotin The CentOS Project | https://www.centos.org gpg key: 17F3B7A1 | twitter: @arrfab

Filesystem choice for BackupPC extrenal drive
by Kenneth Porter 05 Feb '21

05 Feb '21

I'm setting up a CentOS 7 box as a BackupPC 4 server to back up Windows boxes on my LAN. I'm using an external 1.5 TB USB drive for the "pool". BackupPC deduplicates by saving all files in a pool, a directory hiearchy with each file named for the checksum of the file, and the directories acting as a hash tree to reach each pool file. A backup for a specific workstation is a directory tree of checksums and metadata that point into the pool for the actual file data. Incremental backups are reverse deltas from periodic "filled" backups of all files. I'm using rsyncd to pull changed files from the workstations. I'm deciding which filesystem to use for my external drive. I'm thinking the main candidates are ext4 and xfs. What's the best filesystem for this application? <https://github.com/backuppc/backuppc> Repo for CentOS 7 users: <https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/hobbes1069/BackupPC/>

Intel/64 CentOS VM running on a Mac M1?
by Lists 04 Feb '21

04 Feb '21

My Dell Precision M3800 running Fedora works great but is really starting to show its age, and I'm thinking about getting a new Mac M1-based laptop as it would really be useful for Video production. But I really need to have a IA64 CentOS 7/8 VMs running locally for development as I'm often on the road and flaky Internet makes it a necessity to keep productivity up. I've been unable to officially confirm that VMWare/ Parallels/VirtualBox intend to support IA64 based OS's and it *needs* to be an exact (VM) copy of production so I can trial environments and builds prior to roll out. Calling around, I actually got ahold of a sales staff at Parallels who assured me (in broken India-accent English) that "of course all OS will supported when the trial complete" but given that I wasn't sure that he really understood my question I remain uncertain. Anybody here have any more information than I do?

RHEL <==> CentOS <==> Oracle Linux migration scripts
by Nicolas Kovacs 04 Feb '21

04 Feb '21

Hi, I've recently done some extensive testing with the centos2ol.sh migration script provided by Oracle: https://github.com/oracle/centos2ol The script works perfectly on both CentOS 7.x and 8.x, so I wrote a little blog article about it: https://blog.microlinux.fr/migration-centos-oracle-linux-cas-pratique/ I wonder if something similar exists for other use cases, e. g. migrate from CentOS to Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Why I'd like to do this? Well, a significant part of my work is teaching Linux and writing books about it. My last two books have been based on CentOS 7.x, and I'd like future editions to be distribution-agnostic within the RHEL family. This is now an option since Red Hat offered free Developer subscriptions a few days ago. In other words, future blog articles and book chapters will be based on RHEL (the real thing), but I'll also test everything with the various clones, namely Oracle Linux and (probably) Rocky Linux as soon as there's a usable version. Public server providers like Scaleway offer the "usual suspects" among distributions, e. g. Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS and FreeBSD. So I'd like to know if there's a script out there that converts an existing CentOS (or Oracle Linux) installation into a RHEL system. Any suggestions ?

How to query which yum package groups a particular package is member of
by Kenneth Porter 27 Jan '21

27 Jan '21

I'm trying to find out how dnsmasq got on my CentOS 7 system, since I use BIND for DNS. I'm guessing it was part of a base group that Anaconda installs for all systems. Red Hat has this answered on this page but the answer is only available to subscribers. I'm guessing this kind of content will be available to us once the new free subscription thing starts. <https://access.redhat.com/solutions/2534881>

CentOS Stream suitability as a production webserver
by Jamie Burchell 25 Jan '21

25 Jan '21

Hello I've recently discovered the announcement regarding the change in direction for the CentOS project and I imagine like many others, I'm confused and concerned about what this means moving forward. I work for a small web development agency and we offer hosting as part of our package to clients who need it. We have many CentOS 7 web servers (DigitalOcean droplets) (LAMP/LEMP) that I look after and today I'm thankful I have only migrated one of those to CentOS 8, given the recent announcement about its curtailed EOL. I literally just went to the Wiki today to confirm the EOL date for EL7 and boy am I glad I spotted it. Given we are not developing drivers or applications (other than websites and web applications), is the change a non-issue for my use-case? I've seen it written that CentOS Stream is the "development version" of RHEL but also that we shouldn't have considered RHEL to be the beta for CentOS. Others have said to think of CentOS more like RHEL RC-1. I just don't know how the stability will compare and we have historically always chosen CentOS for its stability (and of course price). Sure, I could migrate to Ubuntu (I use this locally in WSL), but I've become somewhat "comfy slippers" with CentOS and have built our setup around it (including custom ansible scripts etc) and don't want to change everything unncessarily. Of course, a lot of this is somewhat dependent on what DigitalOcean will decide to provide image wise moving forward. I'm sorry if this has already been answered, I spent a good few hours reading through the respective threads in the devel list and ended up more confused than I started. Cheers, Jamie

simple http server grab data posted and send to another server - slightly off topic
by Jerry Geis 22 Jan '21

22 Jan '21

Hi All, anyone know how to make a "simple" http server (python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8000) type of stuff - but simply take the incoming data, (should be real small) and when received - send that to a different server . This is different than "redirect" as that is the issue. The device does not understand the redirect response that is happening now. So I was looking for a way to "consume" the post - then re-send the post. It has to be independent of httpd as that is in use. CentOS 7 is my platform. Thanks Jerry

Hi, I have deployed CentOS 7.6 and then installed RT kernel. Later KVM installed on the same box. I noticed that KVM module was not loaded and then switched to the generic kernel. KVM module was loaded in the generic kernel. Is this a known issue? I would like to use KVM with RT kernel. Regards, -- Danishka Navin

Compiling Qt applications in docker
by H 21 Jan '21

21 Jan '21

I am working on compiling an application using Qt and am a newbie. I already have Qt on my CentOS 7 system but this application requires a later version of Qt not available for C 7. It also requires postgreSQL libraries and I am using the latest version of that, ie pgsql 13. I have successfully compiled it in a docker environment and I can launch it on the desktop. I have, however, not tested it against postgreSQL on my computer - yet. I do not want to run it in docker though but on my "regular" computer outside docker, as well as be able to move it to other computers I have. I am only using docker as a sandbox while working on compiling etc. I am not sure how I should set it up - outside docker - so that the Qt libraries it needs do not foul up the rest of my system but are only seen by this particular application. Can anyone offer a suggestion? Should the compiled application eventually reside in its own directory under /usr/local/bin and where should the Qt libraries be? In the same directory as the app? If not, where should they be placed? I tried to compile it to use the Qt libraries statically linked but the app does not run that way in docker but crashes with a segmentation fault. Suggestions/best practices appreciated!

mcelog service error flagged in Cockpit

Whenever I log into Cockpit, it flags mcelog as a service failure-to- start failure. systemctl confirms this. # systemctl status mcelog * mcelog.service - Machine Check Exception Logging Daemon Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/mcelog.service; disabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Sun 2021-01-10 18:06:36 CST; 1 weeks 2 days ago Main PID: 21959 (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) Jan 10 18:06:36 lionstore.protogeek.org systemd[1]: Started Machine Check Exception Logging Daemon.

btrfs to ext4
by Christopher Wensink 20 Jan '21

20 Jan '21

Hello CentOS Gurus, I have just learned that our backup system natively supports restoring vmware VM individual files from a vmware based backup for ext3,ext4 file systems but not BTRFS and some of our VM's run BTRFS as the root file system. Does anyone know if it's possible to convert BTRFS partitions to ext4?

Restore pristine SELinux configuration ?
by Nicolas Kovacs 19 Jan '21

19 Jan '21

Hi, I have CentOS 7 running on a public server hosting all sorts of web applications, mail, XMPP, MPD, etc. How do I reset SELinux configuration to defaults? I know how to reset all my custom booleans to the initial state. # cat /etc/selinux/targeted/active/booleans.local # This file is auto-generated by libsemanage # Do not edit directly. httpd_unified=1 httpd_can_sendmail=1 spamd_enable_home_dirs=1 httpd_can_network_connect=1 ftpd_full_access=1 mpd_enable_homedirs=1 named_write_master_zones=1 Starting from there, I can manually reset them to 0 with setsebool. On the other hand, I don't know how I would do something similar with the SELinux modules. I vaguely remember having created some of these, for example for Fail2ban to work correctly. But I don't remember what I did here over the years, what modules I created, etc. How would I recreate the default SELinux configuration without having to wipe and reinstall the whole server?

Kickstart "Error setting up base repository"
by Alex Kirk 19 Jan '21

19 Jan '21

I recently built my first CentOS kickstart config on a CentOS 7 system; it runs well, but the OS and its tools are old enough that it's causing pain with the apps I want to run on top of said system, so I'm trying to port it to CentOS 8. I've taken the anaconda-ks.cfg file created from a successful manual install (of both regular 8 and Stream), placed it on my DVD ISO, and wrapped things back up like I was doing with CentOS 7. I'm successfully beginning the installation, but running into "Error setting up base repository" - despite having not touched either the filesystem structure of the ISO, or the generated kickstart file that points at my repos. Here is the relevant config: #version=RHEL8 # Use graphical install graphical repo --name="AppStream" --baseurl=file:///run/install/sources/mount-0000-cdrom/AppStream %packages @^minimal-environment @development kexec-tools %end # Keyboard layouts keyboard --xlayouts='us' # System language lang en_US.UTF-8 # Network information network --hostname=localhost.localdomain # Use CDROM installation media cdrom # Run the Setup Agent on first boot firstboot --enable ignoredisk --only-use=sda autopart # Partition clearing information clearpart --none --initlabel # System timezone timezone America/New_York --isUtc %addon com_redhat_kdump --enable --reserve-mb='auto' %end %anaconda pwpolicy root --minlen=6 --minquality=1 --notstrict --nochanges --notempty pwpolicy user --minlen=6 --minquality=1 --notstrict --nochanges --emptyok pwpolicy luks --minlen=6 --minquality=1 --notstrict --nochanges --notempty %end When I switched over to a console to try to troubleshoot this, I noticed that /run/install/sources/mount-0000-cdrom/AppStream didn't exist (the "mount-0000-cdrom" directory is empty), but /run/install/repo/AppStream does, and appears to have all the right information within it. I've tried specifying that directory as the baseurl instead, and get no difference in behavior. The only other file I've touched is isolinux/isolinux.cfg on the DVD, with the relevant line now being: append initrd=initrd.img inst.ks=cdrom:/ks.cfg inst.stage2=hd:LABEL=CentOS-Stream-8-x86_64-dvd quiet What am I doing wrong here? This seems like basic config, but obviously I've missed something... -- Alex Kirk Global Principal, Suricata 404-291-6588 akirk(a)corelight.com

centos-release-gluster8 for centos 7
by Nicolas Zuber 19 Jan '21

19 Jan '21

Hi all, We have some Centos 7 server running with gluster 7 installed. We are using the the packages provided by the storage SIG (centos-release-gluster7). "Yum search centos-release-gluster" shows centos-release-gluster7 as the latest gluster version provided. But according to https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/Storage there should be already packages for the gluster 8 release available. So I am wondering what I can do to be able to install glusterfs 8 from the storage SIG. Thanks, Nicolas

by Jerry Geis 18 Jan '21

18 Jan '21

Hi All, I use virtual IP from time to time on CentOS 7. just take something like eth0 and make eth0:1 put in there the IP and subnet and bring up the new IP and it works. How do I do that with NetworkManager on the command line (assuming all static IP information) I do something like this from nmcli to set the static address: nmcli connection modify eth0 ipv4.method manual ipv6.method ignore autoconnect yes ipv4.addr 192.168.1.8/24 gw4 192.168.1.1 ipv4.dns 8.8.8.8 How then do I add a virtual IP? Thanks Jerry

Graphic setup issues...help wanted
by Kay Schenk 17 Jan '21

17 Jan '21

The problem. I can NOT change my screen resolution from GUI. I boot to multi-user, then get "into" graphical. First, some background. My original install of CentOS 8 -- maybe 8.2? -- about 3 months ago -- went pretty well but I kept having lockup issues. No issues with graphics using intel graphics or sound using either aplay at command line or GDM. (I also have NVIDIA which I have not configured.) I upgraded to 8.3 at some point. Still all OK with graphics but still lock up issues. At some point, I decided to start completely over and did a clean install of 8.4. I am now using CentOS8 Stream as my primary repo. Some questions? When I first boot, where is the probe of my video card done? Looking at DMESG, I couldn't determine this. When I "start" graphical, I get the following messages which are apparently related, from Xorg.1.log module loading section... [ 985.857] (II) LoadModule: "glx" [ 985.857] (II) Loading /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so [ 985.859] (II) Module glx: vendor="X.Org Foundation" [ 985.859] compiled for 1.20.10, module version = 1.0.0 [ 985.859] ABI class: X.Org Server Extension, version 10.0 [ 985.859] (==) Matched modesetting as autoconfigured driver 0 [ 985.859] (==) Matched fbdev as autoconfigured driver 1 [ 985.859] (==) Matched vesa as autoconfigured driver 2 [ 985.859] (==) Assigned the driver to the xf86ConfigLayout [ 985.859] (II) LoadModule: "modesetting" [ 985.859] (II) Loading /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/modesetting_drv.so [ 985.859] (II) Module modesetting: vendor="X.Org Foundation" [ 985.859] compiled for 1.20.10, module version = 1.20.10 [ 985.859] Module class: X.Org Video Driver [ 985.859] ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 24.1 [ 985.859] (II) LoadModule: "fbdev" [ 985.859] (II) Loading /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/fbdev_drv.so [ 985.859] (II) Module fbdev: vendor="X.Org Foundation" [ 985.859] compiled for 1.20.3, module version = 0.5.0 [ 985.859] Module class: X.Org Video Driver [ 985.859] ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 24.0 [ 985.859] (II) LoadModule: "vesa" [ 985.859] (II) Loading /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/vesa_drv.so [ 985.859] (II) Module vesa: vendor="X.Org Foundation" [ 985.859] compiled for 1.20.3, module version = 2.4.0 [ 985.859] Module class: X.Org Video Driver [ 985.859] ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 24.0 [ 985.859] (II) modesetting: Driver for Modesetting Kernel Drivers: kms [ 985.859] (II) FBDEV: driver for framebuffer: fbdev [ 985.859] (II) VESA: driver for VESA chipsets: vesa [ 985.859] (EE) open /dev/dri/card0: No such file or directory [ 985.859] (WW) Falling back to old probe method for modesetting [ 985.859] (EE) open /dev/dri/card0: No such file or directory From messages I've seen on this problem, the lack of /dev/dri/card0 is the crux of the issue but I have NO idea of how it gets created.

bnxt_en :: interface renamed with a suffix
by Adrian Sevcenco 16 Jan '21

16 Jan '21

Hi! i had a very unpleasant surprise when an unconnected interface named enp97s0f1 was renamed when connected .. and after reboot i seen this in dmesg: [ 3.665192] bnxt_en 0000:61:00.1 enp97s0f1d1: renamed from enp97s0f1 does anyone have any idea what is going on? I disabled anything i could (to have a proper normal nic that do not act and do things behind the OS) like making sure that the broadcom nic is set to SF and disabled any function that could be disabled.. so why the rename? Thanks! Adrian

Security bulletins for CentOS 8 and CentOS Stream

Hello, I was wondering if security bulletins for CentOS 8 (till its EOL date at the end of 2021) and CentOS Stream will be available any time soon. I have not seen any security bulletins for these two operating systems on this page, but we have seen Red Hat security bulletins for Red Hat 8. https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/ Thanks Salman

LTS
by Thomas Stephen Lee 13 Jan '21

13 Jan '21

Hi, CentOS Linux can continue as Fedora LTS or something similar with a five-year life cycle. After five years, users can opt for paid upgrades. We can also work with System manufacturers to pre-install the free LTS on their products, which will increase our user base. --- Lee, Community User.

Reboot/shutdown without login
by Kenneth Porter 11 Jan '21

11 Jan '21

I installed CentOS 8 on a Dell server and it's been running fine as a headless system, admin'd remotely by ssh. Now I'd like to allow someone to shut it down at the console without logging in. Is there a way to do that? Or do I need to get the GUI working? I tried switching it into graphical mode ("systemctl isolate graphical") and the console freezes with nothing but a non-blinking text cursor at top left. The usual virtual console switching hotkeys (ctrl-alt F1-F7) don't do anything when it's hung like this. The system is still responsive in my ssh session. It doesn't recover if I switch back to multi-user target so I have to reboot it to make the console useful again. I'm guessing I'm lacking a good video driver. (It's an R720xd I inherited and the latest drivers on Dell's site are for RHEL 7.)
