[CentOS] Post-installation setup script for CentOS 7 servers
Hi, I just sanded down the remaining edges of my CentOS 7 post-install configuration script and published it on a Github repository, along with some detailed instructions. * https://github.com/kikinovak/centos-setup Feel free to use it (and/or adapt it to your needs).

You remove the default NTP service, you disable the default firewall (although you do install iptables-service in base.txt) and you hobble NetworkManager. Also, I?m sure it?s helpful for you, but setting all the default CentOS repos to ones in France as a baseurl means that anyone using it would get that too, so anyone thinking of forking the repo, don?t replace the CentOS repo files. The mirrorlist url should give you geographically close mirrors. -- Jonathan Billings

The main reason I did this is because some of my servers are behind filtering proxies, and more often than not, CentOS mirrors are blocked. I have to think about a practical solution for this. Thanks for the feedback !
