1.1. Firewall

If your computer is in a LAN, the firewall does not need to be stopped!

Sudo systemctl disable firewalld. Service

1.2. SELinux

Stop SELinux if you don't need it.

Sudo VI/etc/sysconfig/SELinux

# This file controls the state of SELinux on the system.
# SELinux = can take one of these three values:
#

Enforcing-SELinux security policy is enforced.

#

Permissive-SELinux prints warnings instead of enforcing.

#

Disabled-SELinux is fully disabled.

SELinux =Disabled# Change

# Selinuxtype = type of policy in use. Possible values are:
#

Targeted-only targeted network daemons are protected.

#

Strict-full SELinux protection.

4. upgrade the system:

Sudo Yum-y update

Wget http://www1.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/codecs/all-20110131.tar.bz2
Tar jxf all-20110131.tar.bz

Sudo mkdir-P/usr/lib/codecs

Sudo MV all-20110131/*/usr/lib/codecs

8. Configure samba

Sudo smbpasswd-a-uYour_username # Set the login user name and password. You can run whoami to view your user name

Sudo systemctl Enable SMB. Service # Start samba at startup

Sudo systemctl start SMB. Service # Start Samba immediately

Sudo systemctl restart SMB. Service # restart Samba immediately

Sudo firewall-cmd -- Permanent -- zone = public -- add-service = Samba # configure the firewall so that other computers can access your computer.

The following is a simple configuration example:

Mkdir/home/Public
Chmod 777/home/Public

[Share]
Comment = Galen's share
Path =/home/Public

Sudo systemctl enable nfs-server.service # boot NFS

Sudo systemctl start nfs-server.service # Start NFS now

Sudo systemctl restart nfs-server.service # restart NFS now

# Disable the firewall. Otherwise (Mount: RPC: unable to receive; errno = No route to host)

Sudo systemctl status firewalld. Service
Sudo systemctl stop firewalld. Service
Sudo systemctl disable firewalld. Service

The following is a simple configuration example:

VI/etc/exports

/Home/nfsroot * (RW, sync, no_subtree_check)

10. Configure the Input Method

The previous im-chooser cannot be used normally. Otherwise, the following error occurs: "grule. Error: org. GTK. grule. unmappedgerror. Quark. _ imsettings_2derror_2dquark.code5: current desktop isn't targeted by input method ."

1. Click your user name in the upper-right corner of the screen, and a drop-down menu will appear. Click "system settings/system settings", similar to Windows Control Panel.

2. Click "region & Language/Region & language"

3. Click the "Input Source/input sources" to add the input method you want,

If no input method is available, enter the following command in the console to display all input methods:

Gsettings set org. gnome. desktop. Input-sources show-all-sources true

4. In the shortcut key/shortcut setting, set "switch to next source" to Ctrl + space.
