Moving (?) from Zentyal to nethserver

I have found that traffic moves through my NS gateway about 5-10% faster than it did through Zentyal, suggesting that your design is very efficient.

Whoa, good point happy to hear this

@AZChas

I found that I could clone the main server to the spare by moving my backup hard drive from one to the other and doing a restore, but the process would be simpler if I could just upload and restore a config file.

Like it, please add a new feature request about. You can use “Reply as linked topic function” on left side

@AZChas

Upload blacklist from file: Zentyal has no built-in recommended blacklists, but it does allow you to import a blacklist of your own from a tar.gz file.

Are you speaking about this?

Where do global blacklists and whitelists live?

I would like to be able to edit the global blacklists and whitelists files directly instead of having to enter URLs one at a time through the UI. This would save time when setting up a new server, as my whitelist files are very long. Not sure where the files live or if editing them directly would work. Does anyone know?

Please create a new topic on Feature category

@AZChas

Zentyal has a dashboard notification of updates to installed software, which was nice

New software center has already this functionality, check:

A final comment. I could not have moved to NS so quickly without the help of your excellent user docs and a very responsive user/developer community. The resources for learning about NethServer and the quick responses to questions are far better than anything I experienced when using Zentyal. Thanks!

Thank you so much friend, this kind of feedback tell us that we’re on the right way!
