Thank you There's not much to it. It's the remote desktop protocol that you use to access Windows servers. On Windows you open port 3387 or allow RDP in some other way. (I do almost no Windows, so I don't remember exactly, but I think on servers, there's something in the Windows firewall that you can allow.) You then install freerdp.

I think RDP requires the "terminal services" feature of Windows that is not available in the commonly installed "Home" version.

[CentOS] installer with centosplus kernel?
Hi all, Is there any way to get a CentOS 7 ISO with the centosplus kernel? I have some very old hardware I'd like to keep going if easy, but it has old NVidia network cards that need the forcedeth driver. Apparently this driver is now in the centosplus kernel, but if I use the default ISO I won't be able to get on the network to get the centosplus kernel. (Of course I can get the kernel to the machine in other ways, but over the network is by far the most convenient.) See https://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=7359 for more details. I've done other web searches but found nothing more specific than this link.

I got a bootable ISO, but anaconda keeps erroring out without kernel and with kernel-plus in the repo. I don't see an easy way to make this work. If you are physically near the machine, just plugging in and mounting a thumb drive with the said RPMs copied to it and doing: yum install /kernel-plus-3.10.0-514.21.2.el7.centos.plus.x86_64.rpm Should work signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

There's a filesystem I'm not erasing for this install, so I can put the rpm there before I start putting C7 on it. For a server of this ''vintage'' trying to roll my own driver disk (or even asking someone else to) might be more work than I'm willing to put in.
