[CentOS] RDP for Centos 7
Hi, Does anyone know of a good program for doing RDP to windows servers on C-7? The "Remote desktop viewer" program that comes with C7 is not reliable for me. I frequently have multiple long running RDP sessions and the keyboard will stop responding. The only way I can find to get it started again is to restart the program and login to the servers again. In addition, I cannot find a way to make copy and paste work. On the plus side, I like the way Remote desktop viewer displays the desktops in tabs. Suggestions?

I used rdesktop on CentOS and on maemo (which is clone of clone of Debian) handheld for quite some time, and it is still available on CentOS 7 (via either base or epel yum repository) - I just checked and it works on CentOS 7 the same way as it did on earlier CentOS systems.

I'll second this - it's what I use on my C7 workstation to access the couple of WinDoze servers. Under C6, I was using rdesktop, then found xfreedp, and changed. One thing that annoyed me, at least under 6, was that after I logged off the Windoze box, one of my 8 xterms, randomly, would crash. NOT the one I started rdesktop from, but another. mark ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

[CentOS] why would ls, while or ci use NIS?
I have an entry in root's crontab: #ls -1 /etc/RCS|sed "s~\(.*\),v~\1~"|while read file; do ls -la /etc/$file|ci -q -l /etc/$file ;done Error output I received: do_ypcall: clnt_call: RPC: Unable to receive; errno = No route to host YPBINDPROC_DOMAIN: Domain not bound do_ypcall: clnt_call: RPC: Unable to receive; errno = No route to host YPBINDPROC_DOMAIN: Domain not bound do_ypcall: clnt_call: RPC: Unable to receive; errno = No route to host YPBINDPROC_DOMAIN: Domain not bound do_ypcall: clnt_call: RPC: Unable to receive; errno = No route to host YPBINDPROC_DOMAIN: Domain not bound This looks like NIS (DNS?) error output, but what could be invoking anything that uses NIS or DNS in that command? ls, ci, and while don't need it unless they are applied to some NFS mounted file, but this is executed as root with a *local* home directory on *local* files, no need for YP. The only hypotheses I can think of are "my copies of bash or ci have been compromised" or "I am stupid". Enlighten me, please.

It might be using NIS to try to look up user/group information on files that have uid/gid numbers that aren't in the local passwd/group files. -- Jonathan Billings ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Re: [CentOS] why would ls, while or ci use NIS?
If you have NIS configured, it'll be used by anything that needs to map a uid or gid number to a name, or anything that needs a list of groups for users, among other things. That means (IIRC) that having a crontab implies a NIS lookup, because creating a new session for your user needs to fetch supplementary groups from NIS (even for root). 'ls -l' might also do lookups to resolve the uid/gid of your local files. "local files" does not imply that there is no need for YP. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
