Cockpit 303
category: release
Cockpit is the modern Linux admin interface. We release regularly.
Here are the release notes from Cockpit 303 and cockpit-machines 300:
Apps: Detect missing AppStream metadata
If the AppStream metadata is not installed, the “Apps” page cannot show available Cockpit extensions. The page detects this now, and offers to install the metadata.
Thanks to leomoty for designing this improvement!
Machines: Add SSH keys to VM creation dialog
When creating a new VM, cockpit-machines now offers the option to provide your SSH public key. This is stored in the ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
file of the designated non-root user, enabling immediate SSH access to the user account right after creating the VM.
