Hi, I have a few identical Dell Optiplex 7010 machines that I want to use for our school's computer room. I tried to clone these installations (like I did before on CentOS 5 and various versions of Slackware), but this time I ran into a problem. Here's what I did. 1. Install one computer and zero unused hard disk sectors with dd. 2. Send the image to a local FTP server using G4L

Hi, I'm currently setting up a local FTP server, to receive disk images sent with G4L (Ghost4Linux). This server has been running Slackware Linux before, and the Vsftpd setup was relatively simple. With CentOS things seem to be slightly different, so I'm currently trying to work things out. For the moment, two things seem to be creating problems, the simple iptables firewall and

Hi, A couple months ago, I migrated our local school (two servers, 20 desktop clients) from Slackware 14.1 to CentOS 7. The desktop clients are running a customized lightweight desktop based on Xfce: https://blog.microlinux.fr/poste-de-travail-xfce-centos-7/ Home directories are all on the server, and authentication is centralized. Everything works fine so far. With Slackware I had found a

Hi, Sorry if this is only half-CentOS-related. In my office, I'm running CentOS on all my systems (server, workstation, laptop, sandbox PCs). A colleague brought me her MacBook Pro to upgrade it from OS X 10.5.7 to 10.11.6. I downloaded the 5.8 GB dmg file and now I wonder how to create a bootable DVD with this using only Linux tools. 1. Can I simply burn this as a data DVD with K3B? 2.

Hi, I'm currently writing my fourth book about Linux, for the french editor Eyrolles. The book will cover Linux server basics for pros, and it will be based on CentOS 7. I have a quick question to those of you who use either Windows 10 or Mac OS X as their everyday desktop system. How do you write a bootable CentOS USB disk using either Windows 10 or Mac OS X ? I've googled this, of

Hello All, I guess it is very common for administrative purpose, to dump and restore a CentOS 7 system. I usually use dump/restore commands. However, I?m having trouble to handle installing bootloader and creating initramfs for C7 system. Does anyone know a good document source that details those procedure? Thank you, Xinhuan Zheng

Hi, My workstation is running CentOS 7 on two disks (sda and sdb) in a software RAID 1 setup. It looks like I accidentally nuked it. I wanted to write an installation ISO file to a USB disk, and instead of typing dd if=install.iso of=/dev/sdc I typed /dev/sdb. As soon as I hit <Enter>, the screen froze. I tried a hard reset, but of course, the boot process would stop short very early in

Hi, Our local school has a 100 % Slackware Linux network with two servers and 14 desktop clients. The main server is running Dnsmasq, and he's providing static IP addresses to the desktop clients. Hostnames are also managed centrally. All client machines only have this in /etc/hosts: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost And in /etc/HOSTNAME: localhost.localdomain The hostname

Hi, I'm currently teaching Linux system administration to a class at the local "chambre de commerce". The course is based mainly on a minimal CentOS 7 installation. Usually my preferred tool for handling manual GPT partitioning is gdisk, which is not installed on a minimal install. I just gave the good old fdisk a spin, which enables GPT partition table creation with the

Hi, I've decided to use these summer holidays to wrap my head around Docker and its quirks. Spent the last couple weeks working through a Udemy tutorial and a thick book about Docker, and I have Docker CE installed on two machines: * my workstation running OpenSUSE Leap 15.1 * a public sandbox server running CentOS 7 I'm currently fiddling with custom networks and container

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

I tend to do the analogous thing on the mac, except for converting the image first:
