Folks I'm looking for a way to access a GUI desktop on a Centos 7 server from a Windows client. I have tried: - X2go from EPEL (fails immediately, apparently they are working on a solution, but...) - Freenx (doesn't exist for EL7) Both the above work fine with Centos 6. I'm looking for a solution that works over the internet from afar. My earlier posting failed to mention this.

Folks I have been unable to get X2go to work on a Centos 7 server. I have tried both the out-of-the-box GNOME desktop and the Xfce as well. In both cases, the view from the client is that the screen starts to appear, then goes away. On the server, I see the following messages in /var/log/messages (I have erased the user name and replaced it with XXX). The server is running as a virtual

I am trying using a kickstart file to install CentOS 6.2 into a new virtual machine (the MBR sector of the harddisk is all zero), however I found that the installer cannot go through the harddisk partition. It failed after I chose "Use All Space" at harddisk partition option. The error message is: http://anony.ws/i/bMcTJ.png "You have not defined a root partition (/), which is

I am trying to install on a kvm virtual machine (host is C5). At some point it stops with install error about cyrus-sasl. I goto the /root/install.log in I have a number of errors about: Installing libstdc++ warning %post scriplet failed. exit status 127 Install zlib warning %post scriptlet failed. exit status 127 Install libxml2 warning %post scriplet failed. exit status 127 this continues for

Folks Is there a way to reboot and have a script run without intervention. During initial setup, I'd like to avoid the manual actions of logging on as root and executing a command, but instead have that command run without intervention. The output of the command would still show up on the terminal that initiated the reboot. Security is not a concern here. And I don't want to

my church just got some ibm x335's donated. Cent 5 is only relaly dvd's. I do have a windows server using IIS for internal stuff. How would i setup a local repo for the dvd so i can point the net install iso to the windows box?

Hi everyone. Since a few days I can't connect with a server via x2go. I get the following error message: Connection failed. Failed to start X2Go Agent session with ID stefsimo-60-1560249248_stDMATE_dp24. X2Go Agent terminated unexpectedly. Aborting session startup.

Today I did a yum upgrade to my kvm'ized Centos 7 test machine (perhaps a bad day to do such a thing) and received new kernel vmlinuz-3.10.0-229.1.2.el7.x86_64, among many other things. When I rebooted, I was asked to confirm (or renew, or some such) my license. My LICENSE ??? I was booting in text mode and the actions required were a) unfamiliar, and b) hard to understand. As I recall, I

Folks I am trying to install Centos 8.1 on a MacBook Pro. I have a bootable USB stick with centos-8.1-boot (which I think is the equivalent of a netinstall), and it boots. However, when I select the storage option, and choose to make more space on the SSD, go through the confirming dialogs, the installer complains that it was unable to save the information to the disk. A similar attempt

Folks The machine I'm trying to load does not have a DVD reader, but only a CD reader. Are the multiple CD images of CENTOS 6 available somewhere? Earlier versions had them. Thanks David

I have installed x2goserver on a Centos8 server. Yesterday, after the installation I was able to connect by means of x2go. Today I get the following error ( /var/log/messages) /usr/bin/x2gostartagent[2677]: no free display number available, cannot start new session. Has anyone had the same problem? Thanks. Bye Stefano

Is anyone using x2go on Centos - and if so, is there any reason to think about switching from freenx? The old NX client for mac was a powerpc binary and is no longer supported under mountain lion - and their new alpha release crashed my mac after an OSX update so I'm curious if there is anything better around. (And I didn't like the way the new mac version changed the screen scaling

It's free and so much better than x2go it's hard to even compare the two. It is ?free? only for noncommercial use. It isn?t open

Has anyone managed to get the x2go server working on CentOS 6.7? I started testing x2go from EPEL under 6.6, and it worked well. Then I didn't use it in 6 months plus, eventually upgraded the machine to 6.7, and it's no longer working. Both Windows and Linux clients error out with "Connection failed. 0: Event not found." A Linux client run with the debug option reports:
