I'm very happy to announce, that FAI (Fully automatic Installation)
now can install and configure CentOS and Scientific Linux Cern
(SLC). You can use a Debian FAI server for installing CentOS version 5
and 6 or SLC 5 and 6.
As an example I've also built a FAI multi-distribution CD which
installs those three different Linux distributions with different
configurations. Get this ISO image from
http://fai-project.org/fai-cd/
This installation is very quick. I've done a CentOS 6.0 installation
(with graphical desktop) in 199 seconds (in a kvm instance on a
quad-core 3.2GHz, hard disk in RAM) and it only needs 490 seconds on
the real hardware when installing from CD.
A short description how to install CentOS or SLC via network
from your FAI server is described in this mail:
https://lists.uni-koeln.de/pipermail/linux-fai/2011-September/009243.html
Feedback is always welcome. Please send your feedback to the linux-fai
mailing list
https://lists.uni-koeln.de/mailman/listinfo/linux-fai/
Best regards,
Thomas, in behalf of the FAI team
About FAI:
FAI is a non-interactive system to install, customize and manage Linux
systems and software configurations on computers as well as virtual
machines and chroot environments, from small networks to large
infrastructures and clusters.
Compared to kickstart, FAI is more flexible and includes a powerfull
class mechanism to build a configuration from multiple building
blocks. It also includes the features of cobbler.
The project was started in 1999 for the Debian distribution. Later
Ubuntu support was added and some time ago we start adding RPM
support.

You really are making no effort to understand how to compile packages on
Linux. Steve told you that you might need to use LDFLAGS, but it is not
the only option you have to set when calling configure. You also need to
tell configure where the header files are.
Instead of examining the output of "configure --help" or using google,
you're just asking to be spoon-fed all the solutions. Try to help
yourself by doing some google searching and reading.

That's a configuration for a Linux system running Debian or Ubuntu
Linux. CentOS (the topic of this mailing list) and other distributions
in the Red Hat family use a completely different syntax for network
configuration.
If you're completely new to Linux, I'd suggest you find a local Linux
user group and get some hands-on help.

A public SMTP server is not the easiest thing to configure, period.
It is the quintessential rope on which many admins hang themselves.

The following NSA document provides very good information on the secure
configuration of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5/CentOS 5.x:
Guide to the Secure Configuration of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5
http://www.nsa.gov/ia/_files/os/redhat/rhel5-guide-i731.pdf
It goes through almost all the services and gives you guidance on
whether and how you should disable a service.
Good evening from Singapore,
I am torn between deploying Microsoft Exchange 2016 and Linux-based
SMTP servers like sendmail, postfix, qmail and exim.
Relative ease of installation and configuration is an important
consideration factor.
Microsoft Exchange 2016, Domain Controller, and Active Directory are
relatively easy to install and configure. Linux-based SMTP servers are
extremely difficult to install and configure and of course, extremely
time-consuming.
One of the features of Microsoft Exchange 2016 is that you can create
additional folders on your Inbox in the server (server-side). Can
Linux-based SMTP servers do that?
Does Exchange 2016 offer more user-friendly features or Linux-based
SMTP servers?
Besides the above considerations, how about security? Traditionally,
Linux is far more secure than Windows.
Judging by security, Linux-based SMTP servers ought to have a higher percentage of the market share?
Finally, I can only use Windows Server 2016 Standard Evaluation Copy FREE for a period of 3 years MAXIMUM. But I can use Linux servers and Mail Transport Agents (MTA) FREE perpetually.
Please advise.
Thank you very much.
