RADVd and DHCPv6?
by Walter H. 14 Nov '21

14 Nov '21

Hello, these are my settings in radvd.conf interface br0 { AdvSendAdvert on; AdvManagedFlag on; AdvOtherConfigFlag on; MinRtrAdvInterval 5; MaxRtrAdvInterval 15; route fe80::1/64 { AdvRouteLifetime infinity; AdvRoutePreference high; }; }; in general I use stateful DHCPv6 (AdvManagedFlag on), but is there a way to have some devices (Android) get their IPv6 by SLAAC? Thanks, Walter

Gnome unlocks all desktop sessions
by Pete Huckelba 10 Nov '21

10 Nov '21

All, I am trying to figure out the logic of why Gnome is unlocking all of my desktop sessions. In my office I am logged into a CentOS 7 Gnome desktop, X :0. I then lock the screen and go home. Once home, I log into my work computer and start a new vncserver on :1. If I lock and then unlock :1, ALL desktop sessions are unlocked, including :0. This can be observed with a laptop and watching :0 unlock when unlocking VNC session :1, or by launching multiple VNC servers. In one test I created vnc sessions on :1, :2, :3, :4, I connected to each and locked each desktop. I then unlocked one session and noticed all sessions unlocked at the same time. While the unlocking of VNC :1-:4 is quirky, at least it is still protected by the authentication provided by VNC; the unlocking of :0 is the trouble. Can anyone provide clarity or a work around to this? -Pete tigervnc-server.x86_64 1.8.0-22.el7

Firewall question
by Jerry Geis 10 Nov '21

10 Nov '21

Hi - When updating my CentOS 7 - firewalld why does the virt-manager loose connections to all GUI's ? I just close the virt-manager main window - select the virt-manager from gnome side panel and re-run - and then they all come back after you click on them - but why is the connection to the GUI lost ? Can I prevent that somehow ? Thanks, Jerry

your thoughts on dnf-makecache
by Götz Reinicke 09 Nov '21

09 Nov '21

Hi, From time to time I see different errors for dnf-makecache in the logs. e.g. „Errors during downloading metadata“, „Couldn't connect to server for“, „Timeout was reached“, „Couldn't resolve host name " or „Operation too slow“. In all cases, a restart of the service solves the „problem“ and in other cases the next run dose it. Beside having the errors, our current service monitoring triggers in most cases a warning message, and depending on the solution recovers too, which makes me wonder what would be the best practice for such situation. a) do I need dnf-makecache? Will it speed up things so much and makes package management much more easy, so having some errors is o.k.? b) adjust the config for dnf-makecache, so it will trigger less errors? c) adjust our monitoring to ignore some errors or be more soft with triggering warnings? C is the least preferred option right now. What do you think, how do you handle dnf-makecache? Thanks for feedback and suggestions. Götz

Hi, FYI, it looks like Google has decided to drop support for Chrome on Centos 7.

Announcing centos-plus repo for 8-stream
by Fabian Arrotin 29 Oct '21

29 Oct '21

We used to have a "plus" repository for CentOS 7 and 8, that contained packages from OS, but rebuilt differently. Most known examples in CentOS 8 plus repository are the kernel-plus and thunderbird (with openpgp support). As CentOS 8 is going EOL end of this year, and that some us still need to rely on that specific thunderbird package, we agreed to just use the SIG process for the plus repository, instead of having such packages being built through the distro builders. So if you're already on CentOS Stream 8 , you can just install (like for other SIGs) a specific package containing both the .repo file *and* needed gpg key used to sign the packages. How to enable/use it ? : sudo dnf install centos-release-plus -y As stated in /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Stream-Plus.repo, you can now enable it (remember that it can overwrite base packages, reason why we also ship it as disabled) sudo dnf config-manager --enable centos-stream-plus You can now install pkg from it, like thunderbird : sudo dnf install thunderbird Tip: if you want to just use some pkgs from one specific repo, you can also just use excludepkgs/includepkgs statements in your .repo configuration (see https://dnf.readthedocs.io/en/latest/conf_ref.html#options-for-both-main-an…) -- Fabian Arrotin The CentOS Project | https://www.centos.org gpg key: 17F3B7A1 | twitter: @arrfab
