I am using Ubuntu 18.04, and trying to moutn Matlab ISO using the following command:



sudo mount R2018a_glnxa64_dvd1.iso /mnt/cdrom -o loop


But terminal is responding back as:



mount: /mnt/cdrom: failed to setup loop device for R2018a_glnxa64_dvd1.iso.


I am not sure as to what this means and how to take it forward.

Create /mnt/cdrom directory first:



mkdir -p /mnt/cdrom


Afterwards mount the iso-image with absolute image path, for example /home/user/R2018a_glnxa64_dvd1.iso instead of just R2018a_glnxa64_dvd1.iso:



sudo mount -o loop /home/user/R2018a_glnxa64_dvd1.iso /mnt/cdrom


If the directory /mnt/cdrom exists, get more info about your iso-image:



file R2018a_glnxa64_dvd1.iso


and try to mount with explicit filesystem type, for example:



sudo mount -o loop -t iso9660 /home/user/R2018a_glnxa64_dvd1.iso /mnt/cdrom


Additionally read my answer at Askubuntu, possibly your image has a boot sector, then mount it with offset option which should be calculated first.

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
