similar to: Weird error when installing BIND on CentOS 7

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. Here's a screenshot so you can get the idea : https://www.microlinux.fr/download/389-admin-console-2020.png So instead of "Standard branch for configuration information", I get

Hi everyone, I just discovered something very weird on a vanilla CentOS 7 installation. If I create a link to /tmp as a normal user, it looks like I can't remove this link anymore. Here's what this looks like: $ mkdir test_link $ cd test_link/ $ ln -s /tmp/ link_to_tmp $ ls -l total 0 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 kikinovak kikinovak 5 Sep 17 10:56 link_to_tmp -> /tmp/ $ rm link_to_tmp/

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. First attempt : installer froze on root password dialog. Second attempt : installer froze on dependency calculation. Third attempt : installer froze on network

Hi, For my client's desktops, I'm usually customizing the various Linux desktops I'm installing. I'm using custom icon themes (Elementary), custom system fonts (Droid Sans), and one of the things I also customize are desktop menu entries. Here's an example of what I do on a Slackware+Xfce-based desktop, so you get the idea. Once all applications are installed, I run the

Hi, I'm running CentOS 7 + KDE on my workstation. Since the latest big batch of updates, Dolphin behaves a bit weirdly. When I download a .zip archive and then right click and "Extract here", the extracted files don't show. I have to hit F5 to refresh the current directory view and display the new files.

Hi, On my public servers, I usually run BIND for DNS. I see CentOS offers a preconfigured (sort of) bind-chroot package. I wonder what's the effective benefit of this vs. a "normal" BIND setup without chroot. On my Slackware servers, I have a rather Keep-It-Simple approach to all things security, e. g. run no unneed services, open only needed ports etc. but I don't run the extra

I bluntly admit not using SELinux, because until now, I mainly used more bone-headed systems that didn't implement it. Maybe this is the right time to get started. I understand there's a wealth of information about SELinux.

I would prefer simple text in tech and security related news but you are right - they are HTML formatted. I think it is pure marketing thing. people dump other stuff to remind you who they are and for a sort of entertaining us. The same story is in OS desktop GUI including Linux. I use CentOS 6 and 7 and still do not like 7. Not to mention in the morning Win 10 with all its crap included.
