Hello all, I've been googling my brains out since yesterday looking for up-to-date information on this matter, and have found information that is anywhere from 15 to 5 years old. I'd really like some information that much more up to date on the subject. Specifically configuring Sendmail SMTP authentication (_no smart host stuff_). I've got Sendmail 8.14 installed on a CentOS 7.3

...rvers have different security options for different mount points, but in this case mounting server:/export/base wouldn't give you the same client view of the filesystem tree as mounting each individually if it worked at all.

Hello all! I'm brand new to the mailing list, and I've encountered an issue with the microcode_ctl package version 2.1-16 being installed during the CentOS 7.3 upgrade. It causes my servers to hard stop and they need to be forcibly powered off and back on again with the power button to continue. This RedHat thread https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1398698 details the issue,

hope thus comes under the remit of this mailking list... We use puppet, and Im trying to come up with "code" that will create two user accounts with a shared groiup ID eg? user1 with UID 1000user 2 with UID 1001 but I would like them BOTH to share the GID of 2000 I've tried the following accounts::groups:? ? jointgroup:? ? ? ? gid: '2000' accounts::users: ? ? user1:? ? ? ?

Hi community, In CentOS 7 there is such rpm (libcxx-devel - it seems from EPEL repository), but in CentOS 8 it isn't. How is it possible to have it there as RPM? because alternative to build it (libc++) from sources is a big headache (I need it in order to build v9 and plv8 projects) Thanks

For those of you who are either part of the secret cabal, or are otherwise keeping track of it, there is a new version available. The current version of the cryptex is version 3.1. It's changed rather significantly in some areas.

Hello, does it in any respect (throughput/performance, cpu load, I/O load, resilience, ...) matter, if one mounts subdirectories of an NFS (v3) export into separate directories or if one just mounts the parent directory? I.e. like this: server:/export/base/a -> /mnt/a server:/export/base/b -> /mnt/b server:/export/base/c -> /mnt/c server:/export/base/d -> /mnt/d

I'm a little new to CentOS and very rusty on Linux in general (it's been 7 years since I worked on a Linux kernel), so this may seem like a dumb question. I have two issues with my machine - sound and video. My sound card is not recognized at all (I think it's on the mobo, but I'm not sure how to identify it), and I have an ATI dual video card with two screens, but both show
