Both Rocky Linux and AlmaLinux are in a very comfortable position, and they will likely stay that way. my predict is that they will continue as a #rebuilder / #freeloader, writing software is a hard work. SuSe hardfork will probably be only an

No, they didn't. That term was bandied about on social media by people who were speculating about the reasoning behind discontinuing the practice of debranding

I subscribe (pay) for a lot of things personally. Music, Movies, Anti Virus, VPN, Storage, etc. But for my business, I do not want to pay Red Hat, Zimbra, or Google Workspace. Why ? Because the general rule seems to be Oh! You are an individual, we will offer you affordable/free service What! You are a business, we will offer you extremely 'unaffordable' service. Because being a

I am trying to build a trafic control rule set for a huge NATed network, and I have it working for single known addresses but I need to scale it to 16M potential client addresses. I''m using iptables for NAT. Incoming traffic is simple because I can match destination address, outgoing traffic I use iptables IPMARK then tc match mark and it works perfectly if I build rules for each client

...quot;. None of the team's work is easy to accomplish, especially when less-than-useful complaints keep popping up from thoughtless users who don't appreciate the effort, and who waste the team's time trying to respond. RedHat's move to defend their support business against the freeloading distro vendors (we all know who those sharks are!) wasn't aimed at CentOS, but it has significantly increased the workload the team faces. Let's be patient and let them get the job done. Kudos to the CentOS team! Chuck

Evening all: Stepping away from the stats methodology questions for a moment, I have a housekeeping question for when it comes time to make the jump to v2.7.2. I'm running v2.7.1 on an XP system. I have a suspicion that, by way of experimentation with a couple of shell choices along the way, I've left myself with a couple of unused stowaway libraries that I see no need to bring along

Hi all, A while back (Feb 11) Stephen Commiskey sent mail to this list with the subject : "Seeking in a saved stream; or, Why isn't that sucker valid?". Stephen had some problems with streams he saved from the BBC that gave him all sorts of weird errors and resulted in his not being able to seek in his saved streams. I tried the same thing immediately (never saved an oggstream

Hi, I've quickly made an incomplete list of the RHEL and clones/forks landscape to see what the current situation is. The interesting question will be how this will change in the coming years and how it affects Red Hat/IBM and the Linux users in general. RHEL ("The Original", quasi Gold standard until June 2023) CentOS Stream (rolling RHEL next) Oracle Linux (almost 1:1 rebuild

I'm currently trying to integrate ReactOS's bootloader into my concept bootdisk with standard layout. It uses Syslinux 4.10pre15. This is failing on two parts: 1) bootsector method only works if specifying huge cluster size (16KB) 2) Multiboot method fails due to opening bootloader's configuration file from harddisk instead of bootdisk.

Awesome work Wayne. I have been following the various threads about running rsync 3.0.0 on MacOS X 10.4.11 and wanted to confirm that following all the various bits of advice yields a clean running rsync (as tested by backup bouncer). I am running MacOS X 10.4.11 on PPC. The following is a synopsis of my installation procedure (as gathered from the various emails in the archive) - note

I decided to install Win2K on my "retrogaming/htpc" system to take advantage of the dual processors in the thing when I'm multitasking a lot, but, it's kind of annoying having to use first one bootloader to chainload my Windows 98 partition, then, via NTLDR, selection Windows 2000 to get to Win2k. I tried using the recovery console to try to force it to write a boot sector to

This week's FLOSS Weekly interview is about ClearOS (audio/video at http://twit.tv/floss168). Apparently they have taken the CentOS developer's frequently given advice to go away and do it yourself and will have a 'ClearOS core' release that is their own rebuild from Red Hat sources that will be the base for the ClearOS enterprise distribution instead of relying on CentOS as

Just got my Lenovo TS130 with a Xeon E3-1225 Processor, 4GB RAM, blah, blah, blah...... It won't boot CentOS 6.0 64 bit, Scientific Linux 64 bit 6.1, but will boot 32 bit CentOS 6.0. Any ideas? Otherwise, its going back to Amazon Monday and I'm done. Will keep my 5.7 Centos boxes until they rot! TIA

I intend to release a project I wrote with Rails. What is the right licensing scheme for a web application (content managing system) which could grow with plugins and add-ons ? Personally, I would prefer the GPL but does that mean any add-on to the CMS (like task management) will have to be GPL ? If some people contribute to the code could it still be double-licenced so that the people who
