Audacious broken on CentOS 7.6
Hi,
Looks like the Audacious audio player from EPEL (which has worked fine
in previous versions) is broken under CentOS 7.6. It refuses to start,
and when I try to start it from the command line, here's what I get.
[microlinux at bernadette:~] $ rpm -qa | grep audacious
audacious-3.9-1.el7.x86_64
audacious-libs-3.9-1.el7.x86_64

XScreenSaver
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

389 Directory Server broken on CentOS 7

I just installed a vanilla CentOS 7.6 on a sandbox machine.
Left configuration as is.
Upgraded system : yum update.
Configured EPEL without customizing anything.
And all the 389-related packages installed successfully.
So I guess the problem comes from my base configuration.

Slightly OT : newsletters, mail formatting and netiquette
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

CentOS 7.6 1810 vs. VirtualBox : bug with keyboard layout selection
Hi,
I'm currently working on my next Linux book, which will be an elementary
course about CentOS administration. I'm using VirtualBox for all the
installer screenshots.
Since CentOS has recently been upgraded to version 7.6, I thought I
might as well base all book references on this version. So I downloaded
the 7.6 1810 minimal ISO and started a fresh installation in VirtualBox.

Weird problems with CentOS 7.6 1810 installer
Hi,
I just updated my installation media for CentOS. I have a few sandbox
PCs in my office, and I'm testing CentOS 7.6 1810 on them. There seem to
be a few issues with the CentOS 7.6 1810 DVD.
Checked DVD integrity on startup : OK.

Second attempt : installer froze on dependency calculation.

Squid + SquidGuard : static block page not working
Hi,
I've been working with Squid + SquidGuard for a few years, though only
on Slackware. I'm currently transferring my proxy expertise to CentOS 7,
and right now I'm having a little problem with that.
Squid works perfectly so far as a transparent HTTP + HTTPS cache proxy.
The next step is to add SquidGuard, so I installed it and edited the
most basic /etc/squid/squidGuard.conf file

Plain requirement: desktop search
Just wondering, what exactly is supported/suggested:
I need a comprehensive desktop search functionality. Not only
searching for file names but also for content and meta data. The
environment is EL6.8 / Gnome2. I have noticed that "beagle" is
not part of the distro anymore. Any suggestions for such requirement?
Thanks!

CentOS 7 : network interface renamed from eth0 to eth1 after reboot
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.

Squid and HTTPS interception on CentOS 7 ?
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 ?

CentOS 7 + KDE : post-installation script
Hi,
I just spent two rainy days writing and fine-tuning a post-installation
script for CentOS 7 and KDE.
https://github.com/kikinovak/centos-7-desktop-kde
I've just tested it on three different machines here, and it works quite
nicely. Feel free to give it a spin and make some suggestions.
Cheers,

How insecure is NIS ? Possible alternatives ?
Hi,
In the past I've setup simple centralized authentication with NIS and
NFS, without bothering about possible security implications.
Over the next month I have to setup a new network in a local school, and
I wonder if I should use NIS/NFS. I still have my own documentation,
it's simple and somewhat bone-headed to setup, and it just works.
RHEL/CentOS 7 still provide NIS, and I vaguely

Thanks for all your suggestions. I spent a few hours fiddling with
various driver versions and configurations. In the end, I simply ripped
out the %&#@$ Quadro card and replaced it with a GeForce 8300, which
works perfectly with the kmod-nvidia-340xx driver.
