Yes, I've been following the Slack channels of Rocky Linux from day one and 
also offered to chip in some help. But after just a few hours or so the various 
Slack channels were already bustling with hundreds of people doing different 
things and kicking cans down the curbs in parallel that it was just amazing to 
watch. There are some (recent) former CentOS and Fedora people involved right 
off the bat and they know their tools and trade inside out.

Indeed. I'm not worried either. Cloud Linux also announced that they're 
starting a 1:1 community driven port of RHEL8 as CentOS 8 replacement and will 
offer it free of charge. Like their commercial Cloud Linux it will have 
(optional) support and some other (optional) add-ons for those that want or 
need this and are willing to pay for those gimmicks. They say they might have 
something to show in the first quarter of 2021.

 

The Rocky Linux guys are also targeting Q1 2021 or shortly thereafter.

 

And there is (if hell freezes over) the option to pick Oracle Linux.

 

That's three alternatives so far and they are perhaps not the only ones we'll 
see.

 

With that in mind I'd say we can be optimistic and can choose and pick whatever 
suits us best. When the dust has settled the BlueOnyx 5210R YUM repository will 
receive a small update that switches 5210R to the OS repository that we settle 
on and I'll also start publishing ISO's that directly install 5210R with the 
new OS of choice.

 

Even then you're not married to it. If we pick Cloud Linux and you prefer Rocky 
Linux instead (or vice versa) all you need to do is to change one RPM that 
contains the OS related repository bindings.

 

Sure, some bystanders (not here, but elsewhere) have mentioned their fears that 
RedHat might eventually pull the rug entirely and no longer publishes the 
sources of RHEL8 in a reproducible manner that allows repackaging after 
debranding.

 

However: The way Open Source works and the way licensing of the components in 
RHEL8 works they can't do that. Even if the suits at IBM perform rain dance and 
a goat sacrifice or throw tantrums. The pushback from the industry would also 
be pretty spectacular and amusing to see.

 

Some even said: "What if IBM decides RedHat is no longer commercially viable 
and make it go away?" Uhm ... that's even less likely. The US Air Force has 
awarded RedHat a fat contract to keep the ancient OS in the F-22's alive. And 
who else but RedHat knows best how to keep deprecated software viable even long 
after its expiry date? That contract alone will keep the cogs at RedHat greased 
enough to keep even the suits at Incompatible Business Machines happy.

 

Lastly: The speed at which Rocky Linux got kickstarted is an indication that 
both the industry *and* the community are ready to defend our niche with tooths 
and nails and that highly professional help is readily available to pour 
heartblood and efforts into keeping the status quo.

 

In the end: *** 'tis but a scratch *** \o/

Hi;

I think another option to consider would be Oracle Linux.  Consider the 
following from their blog, news and website:-

*   If you are reading this blog, you are probably a CentOS user and are in 
the position where you need to look at alternatives going forward. Switching to 
Oracle Linux is easy.

*   Need a stable, RHEL compatible alternative to CentOS? 

*   https://www.oracle.com/linux/ 

 

Another option if you're using cPanel & WHM is to most likely use them as a 
good guide:-

*   cPanel Support For CentOS 8 And More

*   https://blog.cpanel.com/centos-8-end-of-life-announcement/ 

 

And, if you're coming from the old Cobalt Networks RaQ server era days and/or 
BlueOnyx, they have a good blog, news & comments.  Probably their posture may 
be the best position to take when looking and/or want to "marry" with a 
particular distro which had various roadmaps during their history.

Re: [AFMUG] Centos is dead?

2020-12-12 Thread Ken Hohhof
Response part 1 from the BlueOnyx developer:

 

Oracle Linux is basically a parallel project of CentOS. Oracle also fetches the 
sources of RHEL, rebrands it and publishes it as Oracle Linux. They do offer 
some extras for it that go beyond what CentOS does, but for all intends and 
purposes anything compiled on RHEL8 or CentOS 8 will run on the latest Oracle 
Linux as well. You can easily turn a CentOS 8 into an Oracle Linux by switching 
the repository files.

 

But like most I despise Oracle as they're scavengers and patent trolls.

So I'm neither advocating nor considering Oracle Linux as a replacement for 
CentOS unless it's the last and only hope for continuity.

 

And that it is not.

 

When RedHat bought CentOS outright this didn't really bode well. When the suits 
at IBM bought RedHat it didn't take much premonition to deduct that this 
wouldn't end well for our side of the turf. Eventually the beancounters take 
stock at what they have and when you look at RHEL, CentOS and Fedora and what 
they offer, then possession of CentOS as is doesn't make any business sense.

 

Why? They offer for free what RedHat charges and arm and a leg for. Same wine 
in different bottles. Which economically isn't really clever.

Taking that away or turning it into something else is the logical choice that 
any beancounter would come to. Surely the "freeloaders" that really depend on 
what CentOS offers would then pull out their wallets and buy RedHat 
subscriptions, right?

 

Yeah? Really? Hell no.

cnMaestro may drop support for CentOS eventually.

We also had Mormons but we weren’t nice to them and they moved farther west.

 

Interesting, according to Wikipedia when the Mormons left, they were replaced

So, found disturbing info. Was looking for natural salt sources in il should

Illinois had slaves.

 

The saline river in illinois has an interesting story. Slaves in a free state, 
decimation of forests, etc.

 

I bet they seasoned a whole lot of cheese with all that salt

It would be interesting (from a scientific observer standpoint with reports of 
effects of course) to see if you are able to drink milk or eat dairy products 
from an A2A2 cow.  Apparently many people who are lactose intolerant don’t have 
issues with it.  Cows can be tested but it’s far more common in some of the

would separate and then we churned it.  My folks had a cream separator but my 
brother ran used engine oil through it to see if he could reclaim it.  Nope…  
We only milked one cow by the time I came along so the separator was not needed.

 

Made lotsa cottage cheese too.  Not something I ever ate.  

 

I didn’t even like butter back then.  But I did enjoy the manufacturing 
process.  Severely lactose intolerant.  I still have psychological aversions to 
eating creamy sauces and soups.  I love them, my wife makes killer mushroom 
soup.  So it is a bit of Russian roulette as to whether the soup turns into a 
diet meal or not.  (TMI ?)

It will turn to butter typically but it does depend on the temperature of the 
cream.  Apparently the ideal temp for butter making is to have the cream at 60F

Re: [AFMUG] Centos is dead?

2020-12-12 Thread Ken Hohhof
Well, that blog post seems very persuasive.  Doesn’t mean it’s accurate.  Why 
have I never heard of Oracle Linux?  I’m going to assume this is in no way an 
outgrowth of Solaris.

 

My perhaps uninformed opinion of Oracle is negative, based on my opinion that 
Larry Ellison is a self-important rich dickhead, and that Oracle buys companies 
to kill them.  Not sure that’s entirely accurate, or relevant to evaluating 
Oracle Linux.

 

I am on the mailing list for BlueOnyx which is the successor to the old Sun 
Cobalt web hosting appliances and is built on CentOS.  Michael Stauber the main 
developer said he has a side project to develop a Debian based version which 
has made little progress because moving his development environment from 
spitting out RPMs to DEBs turned out to be a monumental undertaking.  Maybe 
I’ll ask about Oracle Linux on the list.  People there will know tons more than 
me, and are often not shy about stating opinions.

Re: [AFMUG] Centos is dead?

2020-12-12 Thread Lincs Chel

Hi;

I think another option to consider would be Oracle Linux. Consider the 
following from their blog, news and website:-


 *

If you are reading this blog, you are probably a CentOS user and
are in the position where you need to look at alternatives going
forward. Switching to Oracle Linux is easy.

 o 
https://blogs.oracle.com/linux/need-a-stable%2c-rhel-compatible-alternative-to-centos-three-reasons-to-consider-oracle-linux
 *
Need a stable, RHEL compatible alternative to CentOS? 

 o https://www.oracle.com/linux/


Another option if you're using cPanel & WHM is to most likely use them 
as a good guide:-


 * cPanel Support For CentOS 8 And More
 o https://blog.cpanel.com/centos-8-end-of-life-announcement/


And, if you're coming from the old Cobalt Networks RaQ server era days 
and/or BlueOnyx, they have a good blog, news & comments. Probably their 
posture may be the best position to take when looking and/or want to 
"marry" with a particular distro which had various roadmaps during their 
history.


 *

BlueOnyx has been available on CentOS since CentOS 5, but as the
CentOS project never was without issues and unpredictability.
Therefore we've never been fully "married" to it. It's always been
more of a matter of convenience than one of choice. We even
departed briefly from CentOS during the CentOS 6 days and favored
Scientific Linux 6 instead. Since then we kept our eyes and ears
open for alternatives and also contemplated contingencies.


 * You are here: Welcome to BlueOnyx» News
   CentOS Project shifts focus to CentOS Stream
 o 
https://www.blueonyx.it/news/280/54/CentOS-Project-shifts-focus-to-CentOS-Stream/d,Simplex%20News%20Detail


Based on BlueOnyx website news, they have indicated the original founder 
of CentOS is considering a possible return:-



And like mentioned above: We're not the only ones whom RedHat
pulled the rug out from under our feet.

In fact Gregory Kurtzer (co-founder of CentOS) had this to say
:

I am considering creating another rebuild of RHEL and may even
be able to hire some people for this effort. If you are
interested in helping, please join the HPCng slack (link on
the website hpcng.org).

Greg (original founder of CentOS)



If you've installed and use cnMaestro and Cambium's software on CentOS, 
then the impact may even be more on your operations.  I am guessing 
Cambium's cnMaestro may drop support for CentOS eventually.

The only real issue is which version of linux you want hook your wagon

"enterprise". Then it go too "enterprise" for my taste, and have since 
switched to Debian. It's the same, but different. Same enough for my 
taste, and down-homey enough for the small operation we are.

Holy shit, I just took a cursory look at redhat pricing. Starts at 
350 a year per server, physical server only, and not intended for 
production use. 2500 a year for the data center if I read it right


I run webmin to manage package updates and BIND. If I'm reading 
correctly ubuntu isnt terrible, just less security patched since it's 
all opensource and not subsidized by a big dog like red hat. Probably 
doable, but no yum.


Has something like this happenned with centos historically? I assume 
the linux community will bring about a comparable solution or 
resolution.


This just stinks, I had my centos process down.

Is this end of life like a microst end of life where they just keep 
patching and saying they mean it this time for years?

you are using it in a production environment you could always pay

Re: [AFMUG] OT - British foods

Yeah, I did it.  But you did it first.  
I just got shown an ad for some kind of Illinois tax law while watching Gold 
Rush... ?\

(I do like Mushy Peas, kinda like super thick split pea soup).

From: Ken Hohhof 
Sent: Saturday, December 12, 2020 12:26 PM
To: 'AnimalFarm Microwave Users Group' 
Subject: [AFMUG] OT - British foods

So I just got shown an ad for canned Mushy Peas.  They also thought I’d be 
interested in baked beans (spelled “beanz”) on toast, or maybe some nice frozen 
bangers or black pudding.  What’s the matter with those people, who would eat 
such things?  Or become an expat and miss those foods?

 

Chuck, I’m sure you’re somehow behind this, I just haven’t figured out how.  
Something I read or clicked on from this list must have convinced the 
algorithms I was hungry for disgusting British foods.  Usually it results in 
ads for stuff like vacuum excavators and fiber splicers.

2020-12-12 Thread Steve Jones
Cambium would have had to violate the eula to rewrite the firmware. Since
cambium didnt design a hardware flashing method for end users that didnt
involve accessing the existing software (even the tftp) it required eula
violations each time.

Cambium are pretty smart people top to bottom, this settlement was probably
built into the manufacturing costs, and since it generates press they
probably have a slick accountant writing it off as a marketing expense.

They slow rolled through court to where any negative judgement wouldnt
impact future sales to any notable degree. It's just like an election, if
you do cheat, all you have to do is make it to an inauguration and it's
done. They made it past the point it was a marketable product and then ate
their cereal.

It was pretty slick and well run marketing. Look how many people went from
cheap ass ubnt gear to epmp are now running 450. I'd be curious to see how
many elevate operators went with 450 3ghz because they slowly became a
cambium shop without even realizing it. They started with ubnt that needs
babysitting, went to epmp because elevate made it a cost effective breeze
to migrate a whole pop over time to a better solution and found how little
the hardware itself needs babysat (gps exluded), epmp kept revisioning with
clean no forklift pop upgrades. This ease and reliability got cambiums foot
in the door for 450. Cbrs came along requiring a hardware migration, people
touched a bunch of pita lte solutions, cambium offered a product that just
worked, worked really well, and was familiar (it's why we dropped our lte
expedition).
We wont ever know what cambium paid, but I bet at the end of the day the
market share they otherwise wouldnt have acquired makes the settlement
pocket change.
Hope it was enough for ubnt to at least get a football team.

 So this was really Ubnt being all the nastiest it could be.  What

Or were people putting UBNT software in Cambium radios?

I remember it happening at the time.  I just don’t remember any details.
The article says that the settlement involved Cambium paying UBNT.
Assuming that is correct, the Cambium must have done something wrong.

Re: [AFMUG] Google News - Cambium Networks settles a lawsuit with Ubiquiti Inc for selling hacking firmware

2020-12-12 Thread Colin Stanners
IIRC, when a user buys a Ubnt radio and first logs in to it, they must
click a checkmark that they agree to an EULA. I assume that it's referring
to that, that Cambium is "making" users violate it.

Re: [AFMUG] Centos is dead?

2020-12-12 Thread Bill Prince

  
  
Mostly. IBM charges quite a bit for it, but they're big blue. Not
  sure what they're getting out of their multi-billion dollar
  purchase, but we would have to sit in their board room to
  understand their thinking. I wouldn't be surprised to see that
  they are saving money by getting all those community developers do
  the work for next to nothing. Sure cuts down on the expenses in
  the development department.
The only real issue is which version of linux you want hook your
  wagon to. I used Centos for quite a long time; mainly because it
  was "enterprise". Then it go too "enterprise" for my taste, and
  have since switched to Debian. It's the same, but different. Same
  enough for my taste, and down-homey enough for the small operation
  we are. 

NBD.

It happens. Someone will probably fork it and make up a new distro if 
that hasn't happened already. IMO the main reason to use CentOS was 
because it was rebuilt RHEL.

I gave up on Red Hat about two releases into Fedora Core when it became 
obvious it was just rapidly changing garbage for testing on the peasants 
before bringing fixes into their commercial version.

Re: [AFMUG] Centos is dead?

2020-12-12 Thread Ken Hohhof
You’d think Steve of all people would be willing to drink from the firehose.

 

Centos was kind of the conservative stodgy approach to Linux.  Even RHEL was 
stodgy, and Centos was “downstream” of that.  Now with Stream you can be 
“upstream” of RHEL.  Not sure if we’d be losing the approach that you can build 
a server around RHEL/Centos 8 and keep updating version 8 for a bunch of years 
while 9 and 10 come out.

I guess it would have been naïve of us all to expect no change when IBM

Holy shit, I just took a cursory look at redhat pricing. Starts at 350 a year 
per server, physical server only, and not intended for production use. 2500 a 
year for the data center if I read it right

 

I run webmin to manage package updates and BIND. If I'm reading correctly 
ubuntu isnt terrible, just less security patched since it's all opensource and 
not subsidized by a big dog like red hat. Probably doable, but no yum.

 

Has something like this happenned with centos historically? I assume the linux 
community will bring about a comparable solution or resolution. 

 

This just stinks, I had my centos process down.

 

Is this end of life like a microst end of life where they just keep patching 
and saying they mean it this time for years?

It happens. Someone will probably fork it and make up a new distro if 
that hasn't happened already. IMO the main reason to use CentOS was 
because it was rebuilt RHEL.

I gave up on Red Hat about two releases into Fedora Core when it became 
obvious it was just rapidly changing garbage for testing on the peasants 
before bringing fixes into their commercial version.

OS's do have inherent characteristics that make them to be more or less secure.

 It happens. Someone will probably fork it and make up a new distro if
 that hasn't happened already. IMO the main reason to use CentOS was
 because it was rebuilt RHEL.

"Ubuntu is and has been more secure than CentOS" is not an accurate
statement.

A system is only as secure as you make it.  CentOS is perfectly secure when
operated correctly.  As is any flavor of Debian.

Put a Debian system in the hands of someone who doesn't know what they are
doing and it's just as insecure as anything else.

Ubuntu is backed by Canonical, is based on Debian, and as for security I
would say Ubuntu is and has been more secure than CentOS and not as secure
as Debian.
But to be clear they are better like Jennifer Garner is hotter than
Jennifer Aniston. Sure, hotter, but you likely would be really happy with
either one of them.
