VMware Workstation 12 Working with Fedora 23 !! 

As the following instruction we can start VMware workstation 12/12.1 On the Fedora 23. 


Login as root first. 




$ sudo su -

Force rebuild of VMWare modules:

# vmware-modconfig --console --install-all  


Replace the vmware glib version with the fedora version:

# cd /usr/lib/vmware/lib


# for mylib in $(ls /usr/lib64/*4600*); do /bin/cp -afv $mylib $(basename $mylib.4600.1 )/$(basename $mylib .4600.1 ); done




This basically does the following:



# pwd
/usr/lib/vmware/lib
# /bin/cp -afv /usr/lib64/libgio-2.0.so.0.4600.1 libgio-2.0.so.0/libgio-2.0.so.0
# /bin/cp -afv /usr/lib64/libglib-2.0.so.0.4600.1 libglib-2.0.so.0/libglib-2.0.so.0
# /bin/cp -afv /usr/lib64/libgmodule-2.0.so.0.4600.1 libgmodule-2.0.so.0/libgmodule-2.0.so.0
# /bin/cp -afv /usr/lib64/libgobject-2.0.so.0.4600.1 libgobject-2.0.so.0/libgobject-2.0.so.0
# /bin/cp -afv /usr/lib64/libgthread-2.0.so.0.4600.1 libgthread-2.0.so.0/libgthread-2.0.so.0


Start VMware or VMplayer:

$ VMWARE_USE_SHIPPED_LIBS=force vmware
or:
$ VMWARE_USE_SHIPPED_LIBS=force vmplayer



For ease of use/convenience, you might also want to do this:

# cd /usr/bin/
# mv -iv vmplayer vmplayer.bin
# mv -iv vmware vmware.bin

Then create two scripts replacing the previous scripts/tools:
$ cat /usr/bin/vmplayer
#!/bin/bash
export VMWARE_USE_SHIPPED_LIBS=force
/usr/bin/vmplayer.bin $*

$ cat /usr/bin/vmware
#!/bin/bash
export VMWARE_USE_SHIPPED_LIBS=force
/usr/bin/vmware.bin $*

LINUX CONTAINERS




























  LINUX CONTAINERS     What is Linux Container:    Linux containers have different approach than the Virtualization technology. Simply we can say this is OS level Virtualization, which means all containers run on top of one linux operating system.  We can start containers on a hardware running machine or inside of running virtual machine. Each container run's as a fully isolated operating sysem.       In  container  virtualization  rather than having an entire Operating  System guest  OS, containers isolate the guest but do not virtualize the hardware. For running containers one needs a patched kernel and user tools, the kernel provides process isolation and performs resource management. Thus all containers are running under the same kernel but they still have their own  file system, processes, memory etc.       Linux based containers mainly involved with two concepts:       1. Namespaces   2. Cgroups ( Controll Groups)       There are total 6 types of Namespaces:    1. PID Na...

Setting up DNS service Add-On in kubernetes




























  Setting up DNS service Add-On in kubernetes   What things get DNS names?   Every Service defined in the cluster (including the DNS server itself) is assigned a DNS name. By default, a client Pod’s DNS search list will include the Pod’s own namespace and the cluster’s default domain. This is best illustrated by example:   Assume a Service named “ my-service ”  in the Kubernetes namespace “ dev ” . A Pod running in namespace “ dev ”  can look up this service by simply doing a DNS query for “ my-service ” . A Pod running in namespace can look up this service by doing a DNS query for my-service.dev .     Kubernetes offers a cluster addon for DNS service discovery, which most environments enable by default. “SkyDNS” seems to be the standard DNS server of choice, since it was designed to work on top of etcd. The “ kube-dns”  addon is composed of a kubernetes service which, like all services, is allocated an arbitrary VIP within the preconfigured subnet (this is the IP that every other serv...

How to access ssh terminal in web browser on Linux




























  How to access ssh terminal in web browser on linux   Running “everything” in a web browser used to be a bold statement. However, due to the powerful HTML5/JavaScript stack, a web browser increasingly becomes a dominant application delivery platform. In this tutorial, we will looking that, how to access an SSH terminal in a web browser on Linux. Web-based SSH is useful when the firewall you are behind is so restrictive that only HTTP(s) traffic can get through. Or in case when we don't have ssh access client tools(putty, ssh-client) Shell In A Box  ( or shellinabox) is a web-based terminal emulator, Which can run as a web-based SSH client. It comes with its own web server (shellinaboxd) which exports a command line shell to a web-based terminal emulator via AJAX interface. Shell In a Box only needs JavaScript/CSS support from a web browser, and does not require any additional browser plugin.   ############# #####Install shellinabox on Linux################# To install shellinabox ...
