CentOS 7 - Not Able To Open Vmplayer

I have CentOS 7 64 bit. I have installed open-vm-tools on it.
I have installed vmplayer using
Code:
./VMware-Player-6.0.1-1379776.x86_64.bundle

Now when I try to open vmplayer on it, it does not load 'Virtual Network Device'
and shows error in terminal
Code:
Failed to build vmnet.  Failed to execute the build command.

When I check status of vmware, it shows
Code:
Module vmnet not loaded

If I try to run
Code:
vmware-modconfig --console --install-all

It gives me following error.
Code:
make: Leaving directory `/tmp/modconfig-2NfFeS/vmnet-only'
Unable to install all modules.

I am not able to open VMplayer, please help me to open it.

Thanks

--Kind Regards
Sam

Why Should I Always Use Chmod When Not As A Root User

System Info:

I have normal user in CentOS 7 whose name is "mostafa" (the name of the account).

I naturally have another user called root with all privileges. User "mostafa" is put into sudoers file, too.

The OS is installed in VmWare, so the system is all mine.

Problem:

Now I create a file with touch file.sh and put a command in it, but when I want to run it with Code:
sudo ./file.sh

, an error is shown that the command Code:
./file.sh

does not exist. But if I Code:
 sudo chmod 777 ./file.sh

then it gets run. My question is that, why should I use Code:
chmod 777

when I myself have created the file, and I am in sudoers.

Can anyone explain me why shuold I still use Code:
sudo chmod 777

when the creator of the file is me.

Force Password Change On VM Console In VMware

Hello,

I have CentOS 6.5 deployed as a VM on VMware ESXi. I want to force user to force password change even when they use VMware's vSphere client to access the VM console.

I tried the following two commands -

Code:
chage -d 0 username

Code:
passwd -e username

These commands force password change only when we start a SSH session for that user, not if that user access the VM directly via the client console. How do I achieve a force password change even when it is accessed via the client console?

Thanks

HOW-TO: Install Certificate And Verify

Dear All,

I am trying to install a certificate and then authenticate with LDAP,
but I think I have been lost somewhere in the middle :

In a CentOS 7 system,
First, I would like to make sure that the certificate is installed and used :

Code:
yum install ca-certificates
update-ca-trust enable
cp cacert.pem /etc/pki/ca-trust/source/anchors/
update-ca-trust extract

When I do :
Code:
openssl s_client -showcerts -connect ...:636

Code:
openssl verify cacert.pem 
cacert.pem: OK

Code:
openssl version -d
OPENSSLDIR: "/etc/pki/tls"

Solved with :
Quote:
openssl s_client -showcerts -connect ...:636

Problem With Epel

Hello

I try to install the epel repository so I can install ejabberd.

I do not have epel, it seems :

Code:
[root@serv src]# ls /etc/yum.repos.d/
CentOS-Base.repo  CentOS-Debuginfo.repo  CentOS-fasttrack.repo  CentOS-Media.repo  CentOS-Vault.repo  n2.repo

So I try to install epel :

Code:
[root@serv src]# rpm -Uvh http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
Retrieving http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
Preparing...                ########################################### [100]
	package epel-release-6-8.noarch is already installed

But when I try to install ejabberd :

Code:
[root@serv src]# yum install ejabberd
Loaded plugins: downloadonly, fastestmirror
Setting up Install Process
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
 * base: ftp.nluug.nl
 * extras: ftp.nluug.nl
 * updates: ftp.nluug.nl
No package ejabberd available.
Error: Nothing to do

Something is wrong with epel.

Gedit Not Opening From Terminal - Not Authenticated

I have just installed a new debian OS and want to change a file.
For some reason, gedit didn't come pre-packaged so I installed it with apt-get.

When I use a terminal as root, gedit won't open. I get the following error message:
Code:
gedit grub
(gedit:3679): EggSMClient-WARNING **: Failed to connect to the session 
manager: Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication
protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication 
failed

Gedit will open page files on the desktop - but not on the terminal.
Is this because I haven't done something with the new install or should I remove gedit and reinstall?

Problem With (instalation Of?) Mysql.h On C

Hi, I've just recently installed MySQL connector/c from source code on my Slackware 14.1 x64

I read the official instructions of the connector but I felt a bit disorientated when I read:
Code:
1 -Change location to the top-level directory of the source distribution.

I interpreted that I have to go to the "highest" directory Code:
/

So I wrote: Code:
 
        #                            cd /

root@- /#                            tar xzvf /home/normal/Downloads/mysql-connector-c-6.1.6-src.tar.gz 

root@- /#                            cd /mysql-connector-c-6.1.6-src/

root@- /mysql-connector-c-6.1.6-src# cmake -G "Unix Makefiles"

root@- /mysql-connector-c-6.1.6-src# make 

root@- /mysql-connector-c-6.1.6-src# make install

Then I did:
Code:
ln -s /usr/local/mysql-5.6.25/include /usr/include

But when I try to compile a program in c with #include <mysql.h> i get this error:
Code:
# gcc ctemp.c 
In file included from ctemp.c:2:0:
/usr/include/mysql.h:57:27: fatal error: mysql_version.h: No such file or directory
 #include "mysql_version.h"
                           ^

What can I do? Thanks a lot and sorry for poor english

PD: If you need the official instructions I paste here the link: https://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-...on-source.html

Ubuntu Directories

Hi there. I have Ubuntu 14.04 installed. Actually I have been doing a lot of work in this OS for about a year. The thing I cannot still comprehend is how to find files I installed. In this particular case I need glut.h for g++ compiler. So I go here, do this command;

Code:
sudo apt-get install freeglut3-dev

And find out that I already have the newest version (which I have suspected since I recall installing it).

So, the next step is to find the glut.h file and reference it with #include command. I cannot find it anywhere. This website says it has to be he

Code:
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libglut*

Why's the asterisk? Is it a footnote or part of the code?

I don't seem to have /usr/ directory. I cannot find it anywhere.

How does Ubuntu directory work?

Thanks, - A.
