[BlueOnyx:26417] Manual install notes for 5211R AlmaLinux 9

All,

Thanks for everyone's hard work on BlueOnyx!

I just installed 5211R AlmaLinux using the manual mode and ran into an
issue.

I had the /home directory mounted as ext4 in my /etc/fstab file. All normal.

The installation tried to add "gquota" and "uquota" to the fstab file but
that didn't work since its "grpquota" and "usrquota".

Of course upon reboot it didn't mount and all hell broke lose requiring
alot of hand fixes to complete the process. I had to copy directories from
the wrong /home to the correct /home and remount it.

So I think I found a bug??

Second question:

When I was finished with the install issues I noticed firewalld was not
started.
I need to limit ssh access.
I was an old hosts.deny fan. Back in when CentOS 7 was current.

Can these commands be used without a problem with BlueOnyx?

firewall-cmd --get-default-zone

firewall-cmd --permanent --remove-service=ssh

firewall-cmd --permanent --new-zone=sshzone

firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=sshzone --add-source=111.264.132.201/32

firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=sshzone --add-source=63.61.153.48/29

firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=sshzone --add-source=211.228.142.32/28

firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=sshzone --add-service=ssh

firewall-cmd --reload

firewall-cmd --list-all-zones


I was going to make a script to manage the ip list (add, remove, list, init
zone)


Thanks,

Herb Rubin
