Use Fedora Server instead of CentOS for your KVM host.

Cockpit is capable of managing virtual machines.

sudo dnf install cockpit cockpit-machines
sudo systemctl enable --now cockpit.socket
sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service=cockpit
sudo firewall-cmd --reload

@francesco-provino said in Testing oVirt...:

Any real advantage vs plain KVM?

oVirt is more in line with RHEV. If all you want to do is run VMs, a plain KVM setup is a simple.

Right, I wanted something that shows a far more complete picture. Once you have it all together, it is so much easier to visualize how far away something like XP is from today's releases.

Still love XP.

My favorite Windows out of all of them was 2000. All the good stuff from NT4, without the boot drive limitation, which actually did bite a colleague once.

The classic destop theme was my favorite when using XP, Vista and 7.

For the VMs you want to access using virt-viewer, change Address from localhost only to All interfaces.
You might have to configure your firewall to allow access for port 5900 and higher.

From Bitwarden when creating a new organization, you have four plans.
Free, Families, and the following plans that could work for you:

Since you are using Nginx for SSL, uninstall mod_ssl?

Once a while I use this command for space usage on Windows machines.

sudo salt -G os:Windows disk.usage > windows_disk_usage.txt

Another option using nmap.
The following scans can take awhile since no targets (hosts) were specified.

Scan 10.0.0.0/8
sudo nmap -sU 10.0.0.0-254 -p 67-68

Scan 172.16.0.0/12
sudo nmap -sU 172.16.0.0-254 -p 67-68

Scan 192.168.0.0/16
sudo nmap -sU 192.168.0.0-254 -p 67-68

@jmoore said in How to adminstrate a handful of Windows workstations?:

I would use chocolatey and script updates/tasks into powershell script then use Windows task system to run that script every day. Use powershell remoting for anything else you don't want scripted

And both Ansible and SaltStack have chocolatey modules too.

@hobbit666 use SSH key authentication to avoid having to enter a username and password.

@Ylian said in Comparing MeshCentral 2 to ScreenConnect:

FYI. Just published @MeshCentral v0.3.5-x with new agent installation invitation link system. You can create a time limited link and send it to users who get agent installation instructions. In agent installation page supports many OS's and tries to detect the browser's OS to be on the right starting tab (Picture below). This had been requested earlier in this thread, feedback on this appreciated.

And yes, I do need to work on improved group management. I am certainly keeping busy.

Success! I use the Link Invitation to help a co-worker.

pfSense with squid and squidguard packages worked well when I last used it.

@David_CSG said in Opinions: Ansible vs. SaltStack:

My need is for one mgmt tool that is: Viable for Windows and Mac OS endpoint management, and for simple basic (check for and) application of system updates, both fit the bill.

This is exactly why I am heavily testing out Ansible with @stacksofplates and @IRJ slapping me in the back of my head continuously.

Probie!

@Pete-S said in Are Minimal installs really better?:

I know if wanted to include the optional packages, I would use --with-optional

Ahh, good to know.

Anyway if one wanted something between minimal and fedora server but without cockpit, bluetooth and such, you could install minimal and then run dnf install @standard to get the packages from the standard group, which is most of the utilities.

BTW, it took less than 30 seconds to download and install the standard package on my test system. It's many packages total but they are small.

And also can do this during the software selection screen too.

And if you are using UEFI, you're better off using XCP-ng and I also recommend using XCP-ng instead of Citrix.

@wrx7m Is that a computer configuration or user configuration policy? Try applying the rules to only non-admins groups.
