/CentOS/ - general

Some of us are real men that run as root and connect our computers directly to the internet, you cuck.

That's just dumb and insecure you set up a your own VPN and do all your maintenance from it, no port forwarding needed and all communication with your hosts happen without leaving the LAN

based thread

Not that this contradicts what you said, but it was openssh-server that was filling up my logs with failed login attempts. The openssh-clients is still installed.

it took more than a week since Red Hat released 7.6 huh?
What's the difference with using Developer's Subscription on Red Hat with CentOS? I only see the legal limitation on using red hat as a production server, where on centos you are free to do whatever you want. But if your use case is just development or personal server it would be okay to use the red hat subscription right? Although you'd have to re suscribe every year

user, no sane router port forwards port 22 (or whatever you set it) by default, you need to explicitly add such a NAT rule, by default the only ones who can connect to a ssh server is whatever's on the local network.

>Some of us are real men that run as root and connect our computers directly to the internet, you cuck.

Pleb! I run as internet and connect my computers directly to my root.

If you don't chmod -R 777 / you are a pussy

Most distros won't let you run SSH with such loose permissions.
I don't know if it ends up in refusing connection or just not starting the service, but either way it's one of those things to prevent human stupidity.

do you trust some third party repositories apart from the fedora one? I think is safer to compile from source the tools you need. How do you go about adding your additional software to CentOS?
I don't think the software age is a problem in any way, is almost free of bugs that way. The only problem I see is the number of maintained software. Is like having just a base operative system rather than being spoonfed all the applications you need like on Debian. Which ends up being rather buggy and outdated.

It's root owned. You're user1

dose chmod 777 testing
give everyone rwx to the dir?

>dose chmod 777 testing
>give everyone rwx to the dir?
aren't you supposed to use chmod u+s?

yes. you can use chown to change owners. it looks like the chmod u+s above may work also, but I'm not familiar with that.

Look under AltArch Releases:
wiki.centos.org/Download

ok i finally got it by running chown in each subdir manually then chmod a+rwx

Is there a way to run chmod recursively?

standard use of asterisks on bash I guess, or for loop

>man chmod
chmod -R

why no one talks about RHEL or Oracle Linux?

Those are for work. Jow Forums is for bantz. How stupid are you?

Bump for the later crowd.

Ownership mismatch.
chown -R user1:user1 ~/testing will fix it.

If you don't even know how to build from source I really doubt this is the case, 2bh.

CentOS is literally RHEL without the support tax.
I used Oracle Linux once on Itanium, it was fundamentally broken. I don't even think they tested it before releasing it.

nah he's right

>what am i doing wrong?
everything

Well they took like a month to release Centos 7.6 after rhel updated, while oracle did it the same day. I kinda feel like centos is dead for that cadence of updates. A month with a vulnerability open after fixed is kinda of a lot

>once a month
Those are rookie numbers.

this lol
If you need newer software is because you are testing it, meaning you compile quite often. Otherwise why would you need new software?

Is this the absolute state of Gahnoo plos Loonix? I've been doing that with Windows since Vista.

just wondering, how fast will something like this get fixed on centos?

Just a reminder that Red Hat based distros give you the Just Works(tm) thumbs up on Thinkpad hardware, since most people on red hat and clients use them.

So, GNOME and Lennart Poettering both get fucked in one fell swoop. I can't wait

it literally says nothing

nice going, already ahead of arch babies. Where are you running vmware?

>There is some fear in the industry that IBM’s purchase of Red Hat will push Red Hat or at least some of its products onto the scrap heap
That is what I was referring to, you illiterate cunt

says who? the article is talking out of its ass, there's not a single source on it

I source on speculation? Are you fucking retarded?...they are speculating on what may happen in the future.

so it literally says nothing, good. stay mad gnomelet, gnome+systemd is already the linux flagship

Within 72 hours and normally within 24.

The big delays only occur around the releases like 7.5 to 7.6. Then it could be 3-4 weeks, but you could probably find a way to build it or get it in the meantime if it was something very critical.

It doesn't say nothing. I already posted the quote I was referring to. Did you already forget?

what programs are you running overnight?

Gentoo

It's not HDDs, but the network in general.

well memed although I think he meant "fixing his packages" which I doubt if he can't compile new software from source instead of having an unstable os

just change the port, those dipshits mostly if not exclusively only target 22

yeah. is almost given that you have to change it, if anything the default is 22

Scientific Linux is an Enterprise Linux rebuild sponsored by Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. It uses the Red Hat sources but unlike CentOS, it is quite separate from Red Hat.

yeah, centos literally tell you they add nothing from aside from recompiling. That's why I see kinda of retarded that it needs a community and takes so much time to release dot updates

Still wouldn’t work on my laptop. Sticking to Debian stable.

suspension?
