similar to: Set LANG on CentOS 6 server

Hi, I'm running my CentOS 7 desktop in french. LANG is set to fr_FR.UTF-8. In GNOME 3, the menu entries are listed in alphabetical order. Unfortunately, entries beginning with an accented character (like "?diteur de texte") appear at the bottom of the list. I know that in order to correct this, I have to set the LC_COLLATE variable to fr_FR.UTF-8. What would be a sensible place

OK, so after some more googling, I found out that when I ssh into my server, LANG gets passed on from my desktop to my server. Interesting.

Putting LC_COLLATE in /etc/locale.conf does nothing. Now what? -- Microlinux - Solutions informatiques 100% Linux et logiciels libres 7, place de l'?glise -

Hi, I'm currently experimenting with setting up my own Firefox Sync Server on a public server running CentOS 7, following this document: https://mozilla-services.readthedocs.io/en/latest/howtos/run-sync-1.5.html So far I have a partial success. Bookmarks are syncing via the basic internal server running on port 5000, and I can also configure a MySQL database for bookmark storage. What I

Hi, I've been running Squid successfully on CentOS 7 (and before that on 6 and 5), and it's always been running nicely. I've been using it mostly as a transparent proxy filter in school networks. So far, I've only been able to filter HTTP. Do any of you do transparent HTTPS filtering ? Any suggestions, advice, caveats, do's and don'ts ? Cheers from the snowy South of

Hi, I'm currently moving all our local school's desktop clients from Slackware 14.1 to CentOS 7 + Xfce. Right now I'm fine-tuning the default user profile. I have a problem with XScreenSaver. The application per se works very well. Only there's a hard-coded pop-up window that reminds the user that he's not running the latest version. So, if I'm running version 5.36 as

Hi, This question is not exactly CentOS-related strictly speaking, but here goes. I'm running a few newsletter servers for myself and a handful of clients on public CentOS servers with PHPList. For the last twenty years or so I've followed the basic rule that mails should have no formatting whatsoever, only simple text. And now I wonder if that basic rule of netiquette also applies to

Hi, I've done my fair share of CentOS 7 installations, but this is the first time I have this kind of weird problem. Here goes. In my office I have a battered Dell Optiplex 320 PC with two NICs that I'm using as a bare metal sandbox server for testing purposes. The CentOS 7 installer sees the connected network card as eth0. But after the first reboot, the interface comes up as eth1.

Hi, I'm currently experimenting with OpenVAS, the vulnerability scanner which was forked from Nessus. I'm reading through various HOWTOs and tutorials, and it seems like I'm stuck very early in my fiddling process. All the CentOS-based tutorials I've found mention a third-party Atomic repo, and here's how the installation usually begins. # wget -q -O -

Hi, Our local school has recently acquired an HP PageWide Pro 477 professional printer. According to HP, the printer requires HPLIP 3.16.3 at least. Unfortunately, CentOS is only shipping HPLIP 3.15.9. So I downloaded and installed the hplip/hplipfull package from the HP site. Installing this thing and getting it to work is not exactly a trivial task, as I documented in my blog:

Hi, I just upgraded one of my CentOS 7 + GNOME desktops from the CR repo. After the upgrade, it seems like all of the icon themes are broken. Missing icons everywhere. Any idea what's going on here ?

Hi, On my workstation and my laptop I'm using KeePassXC to store login credentials for my websites. The database is stored in my OwnCloud share, so it's synchronized between my two computers. Ideally I'd like to have something similar for my servers, but command-line driven. I know these tools exist but I haven't tested them yet. What I have in mind is a command-line password

Hi, I have to do some maintenance on a CentOS 7 proxy installed on a routerboard without a video card. The only way to access this machine directly is via Minicom and serial port. I'm using NetworkManager TUI (nmtui) to configure network interfaces, but Ncurses rendering in Minicom works in the sense that chickens fly and horses swim.

Hi, I'm currently setting up 389 Directory Server on a server running CentOS 7, and I have a weird and somehow showstopping bug. All the spaces are suddenly missing in the admin console.

Hi, I'm currently installing a dozen CentOS 7 + KDE desktops in our local school. I've already installed a minimal X11 + WindowMaker, and now I want to install KDE on top of that, but the installation fails. There's some broken dependency in the repos. I've narrowed the problem down to the libkexiv2 package. Here's that I get. # yum install libkexiv2 ... --> Running

Hi, I just installed CentOS 7 on a public server. I'd like to setup BIND as a primary DNS server for a few domains. Until now, all my public machines were running Slackware Linux, and setting up BIND on a Slackware machine is relatively easy. In its out of the box configuration, it has a bone-headed caching nameserver role, which is quite easy to expand to a primary nameserver. Here's my
