Cockpit 216
Cockpit is the modern Linux admin interface. We release regularly. Here are the release notes from version 216.
SELinux: Automatic application of solutions that set booleans
The SELinux page can now automatically apply solutions that set SELinux booleans.
In addition, command lines in solution details are now formatted properly.
Machines: Drop virsh backend support
This release drops virsh backend support from the Machines page and switches to using libvirt-dbus exclusively. As a result, as of this release, cockpit-machines is no longer supported on Ubuntu 18.04.
Overview: New “last login” banner
Similar to text logins at the console, or via SSH, Cockpit now displays a banner showing the last successful login. If there have been failed login attempts, the number of attempts and the time of the most recent failed attempt will be shown as well.
A side-effect of this work is that Cockpit now correctly updates
/var/log/lastlog
(the record of last login times) and btmp
(the
record of failed login attempts).
