Distro/project heritage

Hi all,

This thing is built on e-smith/sme server, formerly from Mitel, now owned by Koozali.

I’m SO HAPPY! That heritage has been very solid and reliable to me, since e-smith v4.01, and I no longer feel quite as guilty for “jumping ship”.

This is so cool!

Hi

Just wanted to say I’m myself also from SME-Server, a longtime user. And a lot of the shakers and makers there are now here!

You’ll especially love the fact that NethServer does NOT need a reboot for every minor update, like SME needed! It just restarts the needed services in the background, if needed. Only MAJOR Upgrades really need a reboot!

I’ll figure it out…

Hi

Try

yum clean all

or a reboot / both…

may help…

The flip side of this is that it doesn’t enforce reboots for updates that should call for a reboot, like a kernel update. The system will still run just fine, of course, but it’ll be running on the old kernel until you reboot.

@danb35

Proxmox does notify you, but doesn’t enforce it.

Proxmox Backup Server, on the other hand, reloads the new kernel while still running! :slight_smile:
Me like!

Meh. Didn’t work. I’ll reinstall again.

reinstall worked of course. If there’s any interest in reproducing this, try to install it, then run updates, then add AD directory service.
