This is a summary of the Cockpit weekly release. This week it was 0.85
Varying users on dashboard machines ----------------------------------- Cockpit now supports adding machines to the dashboard with different user logins for each one. This can be useful in cases where you're adding cloud instances to your dashboard, and they require logging in with a 'cloud-user' and not the same user as your other servers. Demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N93I0gzvj5c https://trello.com/c/pQJbFEVI/221-0-85-connect-to-machine-as-alternate-user Non standard SSH ports ---------------------- When Cockpit connects to a machine that was added to the dashboard, it does so over SSH. Cockpit can now connect on non-standard SSH ports. Demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N93I0gzvj5c https://trello.com/c/0B6y8SXP/216-0-85-better-workflow-for-adding-machines Troubleshooting machine connectivity ------------------------------------ Cockpit now allows you to fix connectivity issues for servers that are added to the dashboard. This includes adjusting authentication, checking on host keys and more. https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cockpit-project/cockpit-design/master/add-system/machine-dialogs.png Fix SELinux certificate file type bug ------------------------------------- Cockpit 0.84 failed to start on certain distros because SELinux wasn't available or couldn't be used to reset the certificate file context. This bug has been fixed. https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/issues/3206 Work around bug in Firefox 42 ----------------------------- A bug in Firefox 42 caused Cockpit to often load with a blank screen, due to layout calculation issues. The layout code has been changed to work around this issue. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1185136 Docker restart container timeout -------------------------------- Previously Cockpit called the Docker API without a timeout when restarting containers. This caused Docker to immediately kill the container without waiting for it to shutdown cleanly. Cockpit now passes a timeout. https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/issues/3230 Next ---- Marius has made progress getting the Cockpit integration test suite to run on Debian. Without the integration tests running for a certain distro, there's no way to ensure Cockpit actually works there. https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/pull/3202 There's lots of other work in progress. You can see it here in the Design and Implementation columns: https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/wiki/Features https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/pulls https://trello.com/b/mtBhMA1l/cockpit Get it ------ You can get Cockpit 0.85 in Fedora 23 or Fedora Rawhide: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2015-e368240084 Or via COPR for CentOS, RHEL, and earlier versions of Fedora: https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/g/cockpit/cockpit-preview/ Or download the tarball here: https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/releases/tag/0.85 Cheers, Stef
