Hi all,
Will updates continue to be available via the 'Server Manager' or at all now that SME 9 is EOL ?
At the moment the mine appears to be up to date.
Ta,
David

As the Centos devs are no longer updating Centos 6, then as far as I can tell there will not be any more updates to SME9.2.
If anyone knows any different, then I am sure they will jump in!
We are working on SME10, and are very close to a beta.
There are a number of forum postings about this, see here:

Thanks Brian. I sort of suspected as much.
If try and find a 'box' and see if I can get the Alpha installed. I'm not super technical so I'll see how it goes.

You may get some from say Remi or other repos, but none from CentOS or SME as CentOS 6 is EOL.
Focus on helping getting v10 finished.

just saw that epel has been moved to archives lately.
Most repo will go this way.
We have worked to let at least our repo available even for obsolete release. Since SME 8 mirror repo should point to the obsolete locationto at least help you to update the SME before migration.
Also, while buggy and needing a manual intervention smeserver-yum now should let you get updates from the vault.centos.org also to help you update to last version before migrating.
If you really need to keep your server running for a while then you might consider buying an extended support from red hat for rhel6. I have no interest in you doing so.
Lastly, we do not intend offering ourself an extended support, but that being said as SME 10 is not out we will release today sudo CVE fix.

Just to be clear, in the interests of security and for those squatting on sme9 waiting for sme10, hard work by a hard worker sees available via a simple yum update (as long as you have followed the notices here re EOL changes and the updated yum) a updated sudo package for CVE-2021-3156
