Chapter 14. Infrastructure services
The following chapter contains the most notable changes to infrastructure services between RHEL 9 and RHEL 10.
The Kea DHCP server replaces ISC DHCP
Kea is a new Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server solution in RHEL. Kea DHCP is an implementation from Internet Systems Consortium (ISC) that includes fully functional DHCPv4, DHCPv6, and Dynamic DNS servers. The Kea DHCP server has the following advantages:
- It is an extensible server solution with module hooks.
- It allows re-configuration through the REST API.
- It has a design that allows separation of data (leases) and execution environment.
tuned-ppd, Valkey, libcpuid and dnsconfd packages are now available
The following packages are included in Red Hat Enterprise Linux:
-
tuned-ppd: Thetune-ppdis a replacement ofdrop-in power-profiles-daemonwhich uses TuneD as a backend. -
Valkey: This package replaces redis and provides the same features as it. -
libcpuid: This package has been added for accurate CPU model identification in TuneD. -
dnsconfd:dnsconfdis a local DNS cache configuration daemon. The newly configured daemon provides an easy way to set up DNS caching, split DNS, DNS over TLS, and other DNS features.
Significant changes in the package set for infrastructure services
The following packages are no longer included in Red Hat Enterprise Linux:
-
sendmail: Red Hat recommends migrating to the postfix mail daemon, which is supported. -
redis: Red Hat recommends migrating to thevalkeypackage. -
dhcp: Red Hat recommends migrating to available alternatives such asdhcpcdandISC Kea. -
mod_security: Themod_securitydirective is now available in the EPEL repository . -
spamassassin: The Spamassassin mail filter is now available in EPEL repository instead of standard RHEL repository as it depends onlibdb(Berkeley DB) library which is not available due to licensing issues. -
xsane: The API is not yet ported toGtk3.
The following packages have been renamed: * gpsd : It was previously included as gpsd-minimal.
Changes in the httpd package
In RHEL 10.0, the httpd package includes the following changes that affect the httpd daemon usage and deployment:
-
The
mod_authnz_fcgipackage is now loaded by default. You can use this module withFastCGI-basedauthorizer applications to authenticate. For more information, see https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_authnz_fcgi.html [FastCGI authorizer applications] -
The
httpd.serviceunit file now applies a number of security hardening settings by default. For example, theProtectHome=read-onlysetting is now applied by default. It mounts the/homefilesystem read-only for thehttpdservice. For the full list of hardening settings , see the/usr/lib/systemd/system/httpd.servicefile. The support for OpenSSL
ENGINEhas been removed. You must no longer use theSSLCryptoDeviceconfiguration directive.NotePKCS#11URIs are still supported via the OpenSSLpkcs11-providerpackage.-
Support for the Berkeley DB databases has been removed since Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Modules, such as
mod_authz_dbm, now use the LMDB database type by default. As an alternative, you can also use the SDBM database type.
Changes in the nginx package image mode
By default, the /usr/share/nginx/html is the configured document root directory for the nginx daemon. /usr/share/nginx/html does not have write access in RHEL image mode. You can configure an alternative document root directory by adding a drop-in configuration file in the /etc/nginx/default.d directory while building image mode containers .
