      Strictly SYSCTL speaking, here's what I got so far:

      kernel.randomize_va_space: sysctl.present: - value: 2 fs.protected_hardlinks: sysctl.present: - value: 1 fs.protected_symlinks: sysctl.present: - value: 1 net.ipv4.icmp_echo_ignore_broadcasts: sysctl.present: - value: 1 net.ipv4.icmp_ignore_bogus_error_responses: sysctl.present: - value: 1 net.ipv4.tcp_syncookies: sysctl.present: - value: 1 net.ipv4.conf.all.log_martians: sysctl.present: - value: 1 net.ipv4.conf.default.log_martians: sysctl.present: - value: 1 net.ipv4.conf.all.accept_source_route: sysctl.present: - value: 0 net.ipv4.conf.default.accept_source_route: sysctl.present: - value: 0 net.ipv4.conf.all.rp_filter: sysctl.present: - value: 1 net.ipv4.conf.default.rp_filter: sysctl.present: - value: 1 net.ipv4.conf.all.accept_redirects: sysctl.present: - value: 0 net.ipv4.conf.default.accept_redirects: sysctl.present: - value: 0 net.ipv4.conf.all.secure_redirects: sysctl.present: - value: 0 net.ipv4.conf.default.secure_redirects: sysctl.present: - value: 0 net.ipv4.ip_forward: sysctl.present: - value: 0 net.ipv4.conf.all.send_redirects: sysctl.present: - value: 0 net.ipv4.conf.default.send_redirects: sysctl.present: - value: 0 net.ipv4.conf.all.forwarding: sysctl.present: - value: 0 net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding: sysctl.present: - value: 0 net.ipv4.conf.all.mc_forwarding: sysctl.present: - value: 0 net.ipv6.conf.all.mc_forwarding: sysctl.present: - value: 0 net.ipv6.conf.all.accept_source_route: sysctl.present: - value: 0 net.ipv6.conf.default.accept_source_route: sysctl.present: - value: 0 net.ipv6.conf.all.accept_redirects: sysctl.present: - value: 0 net.ipv6.conf.default.accept_redirects: sysctl.present: - value: 0

      I know some of it may be redundant, as in they already may be set as such by default. My thinking is that should they become changed somehow, this will set it straight again.

      Is this a bad way of thinking or simply not needed?

      Are there any others a good idea or generally a best practice to include?

      @jaredbusch said in SaltStack State: DNF-Automatic:

      This would be the default one that comes down with the package. So that means there is nothing to grab.

      Correct. I installed it on something first to get the config files, so I know what I'm working with.

      That is more work and does nothing to help you when the file is updated upstream.

      I did find how to easily modify files with SaltStack: https://docs.saltstack.com/en/latest/ref/modules/all/salt.modules.file.html#salt.modules.file.replace

      But I think I would still rather host my own config file(s) at least for now. If they change in future updates, I'll just modify the config files on GitLab.

      Anyways, link above for future reference when I come back to this later.

      How often to you upgrade versus fresh install? Fresh install every other release? Any kind of best practice on this?

      You can avoid compatibility with packages by using more flatpak apps instead.

      Flatpak is not ready for prime time.

      Why not?

      And that's funny that you said prime time.

      There's a post from Flatpak with prime time in the title.

      Flatpak 1.0 Released, Ready for Prime Time
      https://www.flatpak.org/press/2018-08-20-flatpak-1.0/

      And @scottalanmiller coukd say sodiumsuite is awesome and ready for the masses. Still doesn’t make it true.

      There really need to be a setting for this in the Workstation GUI.

      By default Fedora Workstation + Cinnamon uses dnfdragora which is a totally separate process.

      Yes, I realize that.
      This setting exists in Cockpit, no reason why it can't be in WS!

      For ease and speed and better management, I highly recommend using WP-CLI for all of your downloading, updating, configuration, etc. One like of WP-CLI will eliminate most of this installation, while making it easier to maintain in the long run.

      No need. I only have two 1080p monitors set up. So one at full screen and the other at 1600x900 works perfectly for my needs.

      @wirestyle22 said in Fedora 26 No Space Left on Device with Plenty of Space Available:

      @scottalanmiller I could've sworn there was a post here related to a reboot solving it

      Someone mentioned rebooting to try to solve it. But it did not (had already done that.) It was real files causing the issue, nothing orphaned. Literally, we were making 30K files an hour or so.

      Tiny files to, right?

      That is not relevant except for that fact that large files would have filled drive space and likely been noticed.

      How is that not relevant? more files = more inodes being used

      Size of the files is not relevant.

      It actually makes sense that @scottalanmiller said it was mostly directories. Files of any size will almost always run out of drive space before inodes run out in 99.9999% of situations. This is the first time I've actually heard of this happening, ever.

      Only not relevant for those who actually know about inodes already. The only reason I even know about them is they got mentioned in SGI's IRIX Sysadmin courses.

      The one major exception is marker files. "touch thishappened" as a file automatically and never clean up and you are using inodes without using any space. That's who you can easily learn about inode depletion. But who does that?

      People writing bad scripts that use lock files and forget to remove them.

      That wouldn't create enough to do this though.

      If you start using configuration management tools to manage infrastructure with code you get the chance to see some of these one-off oddities in the wild a little more frequently than you'd expect. Like having Java developers not use Java's log facilities to manage log rotation, and then having a generic log rotation configuration completely bork things by delete application logs that are still being accessed by the Java application.

      I got to see this issue a few dozen times a few months ago before another of our Engineers disassociated the Java applications from our generic log rotation recipe.

      Rebooting was the quick fix for us prior to fixing the actual problem.

      Oh wow. Everything I have is managed with Ansible ( I can't even log in to servers), however all of the devs use Oracle APEX on separate systems so they don't really touch anything on my stuff. I'm sure I'd have it much worse if I had to manage their stuff.

      Using @scottalanmiller's upgrade instructions, it happily goes to 27.

      That has nothing to do with DNF upgrades.

      Just did the exact same thing. Let'sEncrypt forum had the link which led me here right about the time @JaredBusch was responding in my other thread.

      It has been posted on here more than one time. I should probably find one of those posts and make @scottalanmiller tag it appropriately.
