Do I need to to decrypt the home partition before I move, or does CentOS support the encryption methods that Ubuntu uses? Hopping between Ubuntu distros is no problem at all, but I think I might have problems with this.

  • I don't think there are proprietary Ubuntu encryption schemes. What is the current encryption scheme? LUKS?

  • yes, but after installing, will CentOS know this drive is encrypted and needs to be decrypted before use

  • during the install process, it seems oblivious to that fact

  • If it's a separate partition you can alter how it is mounted. See evilshit.wordpress.com/2012/10/22/…

            Postfix configuration issue with fips on centos 7; mailgun relay

            Image
            Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 0 down vote favorite I am trying to setup postfix to relay all mail generated on the local machine via SMTP to a mailgun relay. I have used the mailgun relay before with success on an ubuntu server, but I am migrating to a Centos 7 server which I will be running in FIPS mode. There error log is below, slightly sanitized. I have a small enough network that I choose to have each machine reach out to mailgun individually (this the loopback-only, 127.0.0.0/8 restrictions) and no firewall open port allowing smtp in to the machine. I assume the FIPS mode (and with it disabling of MD5) is causing problems, but I don't know how to overcome it or if it is even possible for tls_fprint to use some supported hash such as sha256 or sha512. However, the relay=none is slightly concerning since I have relayhost set, but perhaps that is because the smtp process is failing? Any help would be appreciated! postconf -n: alias_database = hash:/etc/alia
