is physically installed on a testbench in my office. Usually, when I
perform installations, I start with the base system on the testbench,
and once networking is configured, I SSH into it and then do all the

That procedure works for me up to and including 6.6. It would indeed be
helpful if the OP listed the particular problems they encountered.
I guess my mistake was to hunt down a Dropbox RPM package in various
third-party repos. I'll try the

I'm currently experimenting with CentOS 7.0 in a few virtual guests,

I'm a 47-year-old Austrian living in South France, and the manager of a

a CentOS user, I was proficient with versions 4.x and 5.x, and I even

A company I do some teaching for has a load of legacy hardware, among

Hi,
I'm planning to use CentOS 6.x on a handful of LAN servers. So far I've
been using Slackware64 14.0 and 14.1 for the job.
I wonder what's the orthodox/recommended way of configuring and iptables

Hi everybody,
I'm back to CentOS after a long period during which I've been using
mainly Slackware. I still use Slackware for teaching and for my local
