How To Change The Background Image of Login Screen in Centos/RHEL

-

 

     Hi, 

            Are you not bored with the same old background pic of your centos/rhel, lets put some
      refreshing and beautiful picture of our own choice, We have done this stuff in windows and         played much by changing the backgroud image of login panel 

       lets try out in Linux

       We have tried on Centos 6 and will work well on rhel 7 as well 
       Steps:
              1. Select a picture of your choice, and paste in the /usr/share/background

              2. Update the default.xml with new picture name 

         Just 2 Easy Step 😊

    

          1. Select a picture of your choice, and paste in the /usr/share/backgrounds


       This is the old boring background image which comes by default, lets select picture 


      This looks beautiful isn't it lets put it into the background folder which is                                       /usr/share/background


    As you can see i have  the image on my centos desktop, you can drag and drop from desktop       to the background folder but i prefer command line..

    

    

    You can check if it has been copied by doing ls to that directory,

Step 2:Update the default.xml with new picture name 

      this file is in the same directory where you just pasted the image so just open the file using 

vi default.xml





    And change the old image name with the  new name 
     


    yaah just save it esc >> shift+zz 

    finally you are done 

      

   And then,

    

    

  HAVE FUN AND KEEP USING LINUX !!!
  And please feel free to post any question, suggestions are mostly welcomed

    Thank you  !!!
    Have a gud day

Prerequisites Before we dive into packet analysis, make sure you have the following set up: Two Endpoints (VMs or Containers) Wireshark tcpdump It’s also important to have a basic understanding of: TCP SSH Linux Introduction In this blog post, I'll guide you through the step-by-step process of analyzing SSH connection packets using Wireshark. Whether you're troubleshooting SSH issues or simply curious about how SSH works at the protocol level, this tutorial is for you. We'll cover both successful and failed SSH connections, examining the packet flow and explaining what’s happening in the background. I've already set up a working environment for this use case. Let’s dive right into packet capture and analysis, and uncover what happens during an SSH connection. Fig. 1: A list of servers with roles and IP addresses for quick network reference.

Certification for Kubernetes? I got it covered.

Working in such a rapidly growing software industry, there are new software and certifications which are announced almost every day. And for every new certification announced, you would think that doing it would be cool or help you in your career. Similarly, I saw some of the certification announcements, which included AWS, Azure, Jenkins, Docker, and Kubernetes certification. My initial thought was that I should do each & every one of them, but time passed by and here I am, with just one and only certification "CKA". This made me realize and question myself if completing a certification is necessary. Decision : Here is my take on it. Holding a certification won’t get you on top of the world, and not holding one will not make you fall. That being said, I enrolled to complete CKA, and here are a few points which made it easier for me to decide. 1. Cost : For some, this may not be the most important, but I still consider if its worth spending 200/300$ for it...

Continuous Integrations Concepts and Demo

Continuous Integration  (CI) is a development practice where developers commit  code into a shared repository frequently, preferably several times a day. Each commit  then gets verified by an integrated & automated build and similarly with integrated & automated tests. While automated tests aren't strictly part of CI but typically implied. The posted video includes two demos with relative examples and CI concepts. Demo 1:    Python Flask API, Test Cases, Azure DevOps Intro, Docker Multi Stage Builds & CI with GitHub Demo 2:    Python Django MVT Application, Jenkins pipeline , Docker Hub , Terraform, GitHub
