Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
    •  

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

    To be honest, it is quite complicated now as well with all of the proprietary software (sh.itjust.works)

    What system wide software stores their configs in anything but /etc? Data, sure, but not configs.

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

    Docker installs in /var/lib. Tenable and Nessus use /opt.

    There are tons of packages that store config files in places other than /etc.

    I don’t know what Tenable and Nessus are. I’m guess you have to install them from outside the package manager or build them from source, in which case, yeah, using /opt for config would be acceptable.

    Docker’s config file is located at:

    /etc/docker/daemon.json

    It's not in RHEL. Tenable and Nessus are vulnerability scanners, and Nessus at least can be installed via yum.

    nginx at the very least, but there's way more

    [–] hperrin 7 points 8 months ago (1 children)

    Nginx’ default config location is

    /etc/nginx/

    Yeah I missed the "anything but", sorry
