Everyone:
I completed my installation of solid-state drives and, of course,
a new installation of F27.
And now: what happened to my system configuration tools? How do I
start and stop services?
My biggest problem is Samba. I can't see any Windows computers on
my network, and they can't see me. (I can, however, see a network
printer. That, I configured in the System Settings app.)
There's a systemd gnome shell extension that you could use but
personally I really like cockpit, both of which you can find in
gnome-software.
Cockpit is web based so you just point your browser to localhost:9090
and use your normal login.
Thanks,
Richard
Just tried to install cockpit. DNF installed everything but cockpit-ws.
I tried to install that separately and I got this output:
