[CentOS-virt] CentOS 7 AMI Building
Hello, I'm new to this list, but I noticed a post from March 30th inquiring about the build scripts for the official CentOS7 AMIs. I'm also interested in this; I'm tasked with (unfortunately) spinning up some VMs in our corporate VMWare environment that are as close as possible to the official CentOS7 AMIs. I could attempt to reverse-engineer them and figure out all of the packages and settings, but it would be much easier if we could get access to the build scripts. I've searched as much as I know how to, and while I've found some related tooling for Docker and other services (i.e. on the CentOS GitHub account), I can't seem to find anything related to the AMIs. I know I looked into this a while ago for CentOS6, and was told that the 7 stuff would be made public. Does anyone have a pointer to it, or could someone at least post the kickstart and/or other relevant information? Thanks, Jason Antman ___ CentOS-virt mailing list CentOS-virt@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-virt

At this point, I wish I had not upgraded to 7.1 Greg ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos Having been a CentOS user since about 5.2 and a list follower also, please bear with me while I make a couple of observations. 1. The 'nature' of CentOS appears to be changing. CentOS Linux is CentOS Linux .. it is a rebuild of the RHEL source code. The source code for RHEL 7.1 was rebuilt and released just like the source code for RHEL 6.6 or RHEL 5.11 was. There is no difference in CentOS Linux between how RHEL 6.6 code was rebuilt and how RHEL 7.1 was rebuilt. CentOS Linux, the core distro, is NOT changing. It is now and will always be a rebuild of RHEL source code. I, and many others on this list, came to use and love CentOS because it was a server oriented distro and had the lineage of RedHat running through its veins - i.e. corporate type applications available and support of LONG TERM stability WITH back-porting of patch updates to fix security issues. This version is also a direct rebuild of the RHEL source code. Red Hat seems to be moving more quickly and making more rapid changes. CentOS, rebuilding RHEL sources, will obviously move at the same pace. 2. Major version updates, make significant changes to how things work, minor version updates are simply 'point in time' snapshots to make life easier for new installations and gaining updates. This no longer appears to be the case! Having worked with servers and desktop workstations with both 5.x and 6.x there were very few issues caused by a yum update. Thus one could confidently do remote installations, yum updates etc. I know this from experience, operating servers in different continents with no physical access. The only problems ever encountered that needed physical access being when hardware problems arose. Red Hat changed the mechanism for how they do license acceptance .. in previous CentOS versions this was done in first boot for GUI installs only, NOW they have changed it to also happen on CLI installs. We don't desire this behavior .. but the process is identical to the RHEL install. You must accept the license in CentOS-6 as well .. it is just on the first reboot after install. We hope to be able to work around this in the future. 3. CentOS install, like most linux variants uses the GPL for most packages, the acceptance of these licenses never required specific mouse clicks or check boxes. Copies of license terms were included with packages but their acceptance implied by usage. It seems the apple, microsoft, oracle, and google android in your face must click acceptance to install an app or package have finally arrived to linux distros. Having only spun up CentOS 7.0 from a live DVD I can make no comments about it yet, other than it seems from the comments on the list that both items 1 2 above are no longer true. I understand the idea of CentOS being bug for bug compatible with the redhat lineage, however it appears that the CentOS single version release is in fact a derivative of the multiple variants actually produced and sold by redhat - thus some of the recent arguments about naming of versions and DVDs lack authenticity. This has always been the case .. in CentOS-5 Linux, the CentOS tree and install DVDs are a combination of the RHEL

[CentOS] Independent dual monitors on CentOS 7
Does anyone have the magic incantation required to getting *independent* multi-monitors going under CentOS 7? Ideally under xfce or trinity, but I'm interested about GNOME/KDE observations as well. I'm trying to move my main workstation from CentOS5 to CentOS7 and while the spanned desktop works, not having independent monitors really cuts into my productivity. i.e.: I couldn't care less about dragging things from one screen to another, but not having a 3x3 virtual desktop grid on each monitor independently really sucks.

Well, you can use any of these software for such basic tasks. I also think that they are almost compatible with configuration files, so you can later change package, if any problems occurs. I think best choice is software that comes with Centos. I currently use openswan (epel?)

Re: [CentOS] EBtables Problem

I don't remember the details, but if you're interested, I can dig for whatever info I used when figurinig it out; 2. I got two independent monitors, but that means you can't drag things across monitors. but there also are no menus in the panels of the second monitor, and no desktop icons, by default, so it's hard to start programs on the 2nd monitor. I recall finding an XML file (somewhere???) that contains what appears to be the setup info for the main monitor, so it may be possible to either hack that file, or create some other file with similar info in it, that will cause the second monitor to be a full-fledged workstation in its own right.

Re: [CentOS] Access Problem after update to CentOS 7.1
Thanks as always for what you and the rest of the CentOS team do, just appreciation and admiration for all you guys (and gals?) do for the community. Rob To be perfectly honest, I am not thrilled with the movement either from the enterprise stability point of view .. BUT .. with respect to desktop and software development it is better. I personally though the other way was better (no major version movement) .. but, that is above my paygrade :) Johnny and Rob, I would like to give a BIG thanks to not only the CentOS team, but also to the members of this list. There is no way I would have been able to learn how to do what I have done without everyone giving me some help from time to time! Big Thanks!!!

[CentOS] Mouse wheel desktop switching
Awhile back the mouse wheel stopped working when trying to switch workspaces in the overview, sometime after the 7.1 udpate. Now it only works if the mouse is over a thumbnail of an application and not when its on a blank workspace if that makes any sense.

With GNOME3, the secondary monitors do not have workspaces. That is useful for some workflows, but if you don't like it you can use gnome-tweak-tool to give workspaces to all monitors. Hope this helps. Kal ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
[CentOS] state of IPSec VPN on CentOS 7: Openswan, strongSwan, RPM packages
I looked in the yum repositories for CentOS 7 and I noticed that there are no packages for any of the major open source IPSec VPN apps - Openswan, strongSwan, etc. I'm pretty sure CentOS 6 had Openswan packages. What is the current consensus w.r.t. building an IPSec VPN server (concentrator, whatever) on CentOS 7, that will do site-to-site connections with Cisco hardware at the other end? Is any of the *swan apps still considered the best option for that? Any guidelines w.r.t. IPSec VPN in general on this platform?
