easy way to stop old ssl's
Without context it's impossible to make firm statements but, having gone through this a while back (and discovering that less than 1 percent of an examined list of connections couldn't support current ssl - mainly Apple hardware), who do you want to protect? Is it the minority who won't/can't upgrade or the majority who have? And, do you have to protect yourself from liability

easy way to stop old ssl's
> Yes, breaking changes. Doing this *will* cut off support for older browsers. On purpose. Old browsers aren't really the problem. Even ff 45 (?) from CentOS5 will happily access a TLSv1.2-only server. The problem is user that have old versions of software installed with no TLSv1.2 support. SVN, python 2.7 scripts, etc.

how to know when a system is compromised
Once upon a time, Leroy Tennison <leroy at datavoiceint.com> said: > The executable could be placed on mounted read-only media That's not as secure as you think. Linux bind mounts can mount a file over another file (plus there's overlay filesystems), so it's possible to replace a binary even on a read-only device. -- Chris Adams <linux at cmadams.net>

Firefox 68 jnlp files
It seems that firefox 68.x, as distributed with CentOS6 updates, no longer allows opening jnlp files with javaws The "Choose Helper Application" window popping up after selecting "Open with/Other" has a predefined list of applications that cannot be customised. I'm sure it must be a configuration issue as this works fine with the same browser on other distributions, but

USB-serial adapter for CentOS 7
I need to connect an older APS UPS unit to a machine running CentOS 7. Unfortunately the UPS only has a serial port whereas the computer does not. I am aware that there are USB-serial adapters but that the hardware or the drivers might fall short of expectations. Does anyone have positive experience with such an adapter? Or, conversely, would recommend avoid a particular adapter?

[OT] Bacula offsite replication
Hi everyone, I have updated my backup server to CentOS 8.2. It runs bacula performing backup on disks. I would like to replicate backups on another offsite machine. I read about the ability to configure a new storage daemon in the offsite location and create a Migration/Copy Jobs. If I'm not wrong, it replicates only volumes but not replicate the catalog. I will try this. Another way to

Limit user password by time
Is it possible with "chage" to configure a password caducity for, at most, 2 hours? I think "chage" only allows caducity for, at least, one day.

how to increase DNS reliability?
Hi, how can DNS reliability, as experienced by clients on the LAN who are sending queries, be increased? Would I have to set up some sort of cluster consisting of several servers all providing DNS services which is reachable under a single IP address known to the clients? Just setting up several name servers and making them known to the clients for the clients to automatically switch isn't

HP vs. Brother Printers: Use with Centos/Fedora
We currently have a Brother MFC-5490CN. Printer firmware is dated June 1010. (yeah, 10 years old). Few years ago the brother software wouldn't work for printing under Fedora. No problem, can print under Windows 10. Then it stopped scanning. Could still print...under Windows. Now, to fix the scanning features working I installed updated drivers under Windows, now it scans like champ, but
