Enable FIPS Mode on SLES 15 and Verify the Boot State
Follow SUSE’s SP7 procedure to enable FIPS mode, reboot safely, verify the active policy, and check whether your compliance requirement calls for validated modules.
Sent an email to the wrong person or spotted a typo right after hitting Send? Outlook lets you recall a sent email — but only if both you and the recipient use Microsoft Exchange or Microsoft 365, and the message hasn't been read yet. Here's how to do it in under two minutes.
Many users want quick access to Google search every time they open a new window or click the home icon. Changing this setting in Chrome takes only a few clicks and does not affect your bookmarks or search engine choice. The change applies immediately across all open profiles on the same device.
Before starting, make sure you are using the latest version of Chrome. Go to chrome://settings/help to check for updates if needed. You will need to be signed into a Google account only if you want the setting to sync across devices.
Launch Google Chrome on your computer. Click the three vertical dots in the top-right corner of the browser window. Select Settings from the dropdown menu. This opens the main settings page at chrome://settings.
In the left sidebar of Settings, click Appearance. Scroll down until you see the Show home button toggle. If the toggle is off, turn it on first.
Below the toggle, select the Enter custom web address option. In the text field that appears, type https://www.google.com and press Enter. Chrome saves the change automatically.
Click the small house icon that now appears to the left of the address bar. The browser should load google.com immediately. If it does not, restart Chrome and test again.
No. Setting Google as your homepage on Chrome only changes the page that loads when you click the home button. New tabs still open the default new tab page unless you install a separate extension.
The home button feature does not exist in the Android version of Chrome. You can add a Google search widget to your phone's home screen instead.
Yes, if you are signed into the same Google account and have sync enabled for settings. The homepage change will appear on other signed-in computers within a few minutes.
Once complete, clicking the home button in Chrome will always take you straight to Google search. The process requires no restarts or additional software.
Follow SUSE’s SP7 procedure to enable FIPS mode, reboot safely, verify the active policy, and check whether your compliance requirement calls for validated modules.
Compare YaST and cryptsetup for a new encrypted SLES data volume, choose LUKS1 or LUKS2, and verify unlock and mount behavior safely.
Create, refine, and verify a least-privilege AppArmor profile on SLES 15 SP7, with a clear note on SLES 16’s SELinux default.
Set up RMT on SLES 15, mirror entitled repositories, and verify HTTPS registration and package access from a test client.
Connect SLES 15 to AD with YaST’s SSSD-based logon management, then verify directory lookup, domain login, and Kerberos tickets.
Set up the right Live Patching path for SLES 16.0 or 15 SP7, apply eligible kernel fixes, and confirm what is active without confusing it with a reboot-required kernel update.
Load a custom SLES 15 kernel module without disabling Secure Boot. Match the running kernel, sign the .ko file, enroll a MOK key, and verify loading.
SLES 15 SP5 can migrate online to SP6, but each node must reboot. Use a tested rolling upgrade or blue-green cutover to keep workloads reachable.
Use SUSE’s supported STIG profile to scan SLES 15, test remediation, review remaining findings, and retain assessment evidence.
Trace a failed Cockpit connection through DNS, port 9090, the systemd socket, firewalld, TLS, and login settings using current SUSE guidance.
