Me too, that sounds good now that you say it.

I am staying with my dad too, here in the land of pizza, subs and fish frys.

Updated to the latest NVM and NodeJS versions.

There is also the ability to check out the repo and just use get to pull the current but if I do that how do I didn't install in the same fashion that this is installed?

I've not tried that either.

They also forget about SELinux with their CentOS 7 docs. You need sudo setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect 1 and possibly sudo chcon -R --type=httpd_syscontent_rw_t /opt/kibana

Up and running now.

It's not 100% perfect, but pretty good. Very low risk.

If it's a cloud system why are you using RAID 10 with it?

I didn't build it.

Sure... Sure... Blame it on the other guys... If you can't fix it the easy way, at least you have a chance to redo it right. 🙂

Since you have that thread about testing out Vultr...

They don't explain it very well there but you can spin up a VM with OwnCloud already installed and ready to go.

It runs on CentOS 6, but still very handy!

It looks like it is trying to connect but it gives me two choices for a SSL cert when I do... then it give me an error. I will have to look into a bit more when I have time.

Other versions?

You can deploy Cockpit to CentOS too. Red Hat just moved it to "default install" in Fedora before it went to CentOS.

Good to know.
Will have a hunt on Monday have a play oh and of course "Do some Work"

When in doubt just...

find / -name iptables.conf -print

I'm not necessarily opposed to using 15.04, I've just always stuck with the LTS releases for deployment.

I'm the opposite. Due to stability and patch issues, I would never use LTS for production (only in a lab) except for the time when the LTS release is also the current release. Remember LTS is only a name and does not imply any additional support. Staying on old, out of date, unsupported OS versions is especially bad in production.

Look what I just found!

Highlights:

Fedora Server

Database Server Role. The Fedora Server edition focuses on easy of different server roles. Fedora 21 debuted with an Domain Controller Role featuring FreeIPA. For this release, we’ve added a Database Server role, built around PostgreSQL. Default to XFS filesystem. The default file system type for Fedora Server installs will be XFS running atop LVM for all partitions except /boot. The /boot partition will remain a non-LVM, ext4 partition due to technological limitations of the bootloader. Cockpit will be compatible between OS releases. Cockpit is a server manager that makes it easy to administer your GNU/Linux servers via a web browser.
- Easy to use. Cockpit is perfect for new sysadmins, allowing them to easily perform simple tasks such as storage administration, inspecting journals and starting and stopping services.
- No interference. Jumping between the terminal and the web tool is no problem. A service started via Cockpit can be stopped via the terminal. Likewise, if an error occurs in the terminal, it can be seen in the Cockpit journal interface. Multi-server. You can monitor and administer several servers at the same time.

Seriously. Or, what I really want, is when can everyone else get a self driving car!!

Car accidents will drop. In fact the other day I was thinking about how sometime in the not-too-distant future, people who drive themselves will be considered reckless, like driving with a cellphone or bottle of whisky in your hand, as they'll cause most accidents.

This is probably true... I would still prefer to drive myself but I feel the cost of insurance on a vehicle of the manual nature will be extraordinary.

I like the idea of driving myself but it is worth giving that up to stop everyone else from driving themselves. But, as much as I like driving, getting to read a book, post to ML and drink wine while traveling in my car are worth a LOT to me.

I spend about an hour in the car each day... if I could turn that time into something resembling productive (even playing a video game) I would give up driving.

I think most video games will be tough just because of the unavoidable car motion.

I was thinking 3DS or something similar... even an emulator on the phone is very nice to have on long trips.

OMG, talk abut car sickness. Wow.

Hmmm, I get car sick when reading a book in the car... not when playing games.

I'm also quite late, but would it be appropriate to keep passwords in files with root permissions and have the script read it? Or is that just as insecure?

At some point, passwords need to exist. In most cases, you want to use keys, though. Where do you need passwords?

I was just asking if that would be a solution to the original problem while still being secure since he couldn't use keys.

Oh, in that case, they aren't concerned about security or they'd have keys. So being really secure isn't on their radar 🙂
