Quick guide to deploy and configure your CentOS Stream VPS
CentOS 7: Supported until June 30, 2024
CentOS 8: End-of-life (December 2021)
Recommendation: Consider migrating to Rocky Linux or AlmaLinux for long-term support.
ssh root@your-server-ipyum update -yEPEL (Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux) provides additional software:
yum install -y epel-release# Start and enable firewall
systemctl start firewalld
systemctl enable firewalld
# Allow SSH
firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service=ssh
# Allow HTTP/HTTPS
firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service=http
firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service=https
# Reload firewall
firewall-cmd --reloadIf SELinux blocks your applications, temporarily disable it:
# Temporary (until reboot)
setenforce 0
# Permanent (edit /etc/selinux/config)
sed -i 's/SELINUX=enforcing/SELINUX=disabled/' /etc/selinux/configTo migrate from CentOS to Rocky Linux:
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rocky-linux/rocky-tools/main/migrate2rocky/migrate2rocky.sh
chmod +x migrate2rocky.sh
./migrate2rocky.sh -rImportant: Always backup before migrating!
Common questions about CentOS Stream VPS Hospitium VPS
CentOS 7 is supported until June 30, 2024. CentOS 8 reached end-of-life in December 2021. We recommend migrating to Rocky Linux or AlmaLinux, which are 1:1 compatible replacements for CentOS. These distributions continue the RHEL-compatible community model.
Rocky Linux and AlmaLinux are the primary CentOS replacements. Both are RHEL clones with long-term support. Rocky Linux is led by CentOS founder Gregory Kurtzer. AlmaLinux is backed by CloudLinux. Both are production-ready and compatible with existing CentOS workflows.
Yes! Rocky Linux provides a migration script that converts CentOS 7/8 to Rocky Linux in-place. The process preserves your applications and configurations. Always backup before migrating.
CentOS uses YUM (Yellowdog Updater Modified) and DNF (Dandified YUM) for package management. Install packages with "yum install package-name" or "dnf install package-name".
CentOS (and its successors) are RHEL-compatible, making them ideal if you need Red Hat ecosystem compatibility. They use RPM packages, SELinux security, and have longer release cycles (more stable). Choose Ubuntu for newer packages and larger community.
Yes. CentOS uses FirewallD by default, a dynamic firewall manager. Manage rules with the "firewall-cmd" command. It's more complex than Ubuntu's UFW but offers greater control.
SELinux (Security-Enhanced Linux) is a mandatory access control security module included in CentOS. It provides enhanced security but can block applications if misconfigured. You can set it to permissive mode for troubleshooting: "setenforce 0".
We recommend Rocky Linux or AlmaLinux for new deployments. If you're on CentOS 7, plan migration before June 2024 end-of-life. CentOS 8 is already EOL and should be migrated immediately.
