It's time to test CentOS 7.5

I’d like to share the list of default changes planned for NS 7.5:

  • Mail server: the nethserver-mail module (based on amavis and spamassassin) will be replaced by nethserver-mail2 based on rspamd
  • TLS policy will be enforced to latest available
  • Server Manager will enforce session expiration: idle 15 minutes, max 8 hours
  • nDPI 1.7 will be replaced with nDPI 2.2
  • Subscription module, along with yum cron, will be installed as default
  • When NS is joined to a DC, the machine passowrd will be stored encrypted only inside the keytab
  • Windows file server page: “Grant full control to the creator” will be the new default
  • Webvirtmgr will be removed (the package is not maintained anymore since 2 years), the manual will describe how to correctly use NethServer for virtualization
  • Fail2Ban will be part of the core (thanks to @stephdl!)

I’d like also to have the rpm which enable @mrmarkuz and @stephdl repository inside the Forge.
This will prevent problem also in case of url changes in the repository infra :wink:
