jackyes: jackyes: No problem with network configuration on Centos 7.2 on my Rpi3…

Mabey i’m missing some eth-tools -utils to get the by NS used ifup ifdown working;

Or just wait, IMO IFup IF down does not suite a modern distro (to put it polite).

Jim: Jim: You are recompiling every package for the Arm architectur ?

Oh No

Nethserver packages are arch independent (noarch) containing basically 2/3 sections:

web-ui snippets (html, ccs, php, … and ohter web-stuf)

e-smit configuration layer: templates and scripts for configuration

and creation/population the configuration databases (perl, bash, …)

and creation/population the configuration databases (perl, bash, …) dependencies: actual packages used (ie samba or dovecot) and some

extra tools/libraries.

I was just curious if the e-smit configuration layer would work without huge adoptions. And it does !

On redsleeve i had to gather/(re)build just a few packages and do some dirty yum-repo configuration.

[root@nethpi ~]# ls /home/repo/7/local/arm/Packages/

lsm-0.195-1.el7.armv5tel.rpm

perl-Authen-PAM-0.16-21.el7.armv5tel.rpm

perl-Crypt-Cracklib-1.7-5.fc18.armv5tel.rpm

perl-Mail-RFC822-Address-0.3-1.el7.noarch.rpm

perl-Net-IPv4Addr-0.10-19.el7.noarch.rpm

perl-Text-Template-1.45-12.el7.noarch.rpm

python-simplejson-3.5.3-2.el7.armv5tel.rpm

shorewall-4.6.5.3-1.el7.noarch.rpm

shorewall-core-4.6.5.3-1.el7.noarch.rpm

the noarch and lsm (source files) come from NS repo’s,

python-simplejson, perl-Authen-PAM are built from fedora 22 source files

http://fr2.rpmfind.net/linux/fedora/linux/releases/22/Everything/source/SRPMS/

perl-Crypt-Cracklib is a hard nut to crack, and did not succeed (re)buidling…

found an arch- and perl-version compatible one in a obscure place on the internet:

http://armpkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/perl-Crypt-Cracklib/1.7/5.fc18/armv5tel/

Duc does not (out of the box) compile for arm

CentOS is missing mdadm no problem compiling that, it dependency libreport is another story…

(although you could argue if softraid is really needed on a pi…)

Mabey some on more knowledgeable does succeed , i’m fairly new to the rhel family and don’t know how to set up a toolchain/crosscompiler for userspace packages.
