This week it was 0.85 + +Cockpit releases every week. This week it was 0.85. + +### Varying users on dashboard machines + +Cockpit now supports adding machines to the dashboard with different +user logins for each one. This can be useful in cases where you're +adding cloud instances to your dashboard, and they require logging in +with a *cloud-user* and not the same user as your other servers. + +<iframe width="853" height="480" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/N93I0gzvj5c?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> + + +### Non standard SSH ports + +When Cockpit connects to a machine that was added to the dashboard, it +does so over SSH. Cockpit can now connect on non-standard SSH ports. + +See the video above. + + +### Troubleshooting machine connectivity + +Cockpit now allows you to fix connectivity issues for servers that are +added to the dashboard. This includes adjusting authentication, checking +on host keys and more. + +[](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cockpit-project/cockpit-design/master/add-system/machine-dialogs.png) + + +### Fix SELinux certificate file type bug + +Cockpit 0.84 failed to start on certain distros because SELinux wasn't +available or couldn't be used to reset the certificate file context. +This [bug has been fixed](https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/issues/3206). + + +### Work around bug in Firefox 42 + +A bug in Firefox 42 caused Cockpit to often load with a blank screen, +due to layout calculation issues. The layout code has been changed to +work around [this issue](https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1185136). + + +### Docker restart container timeout + +Previously Cockpit called the Docker API without a timeout when +restarting containers. This caused Docker to immediately kill the +container without waiting for it to shutdown cleanly. Cockpit now +[passes a timeout](https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/issues/3230). + + +### From the future + +Marius has [made progress](https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/pull/3202) +getting the Cockpit integration test suite to run on Debian. Without the +integration tests running for a certain distro, there's no way to ensure Cockpit +actually works there. + + +### Try it out + +Cockpit 0.85 is available now: + + * [Source Tarball](https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/releases/tag/0.85) + * [Fedora 23 and Fedora Rawhide](https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2015-e368240084) + * [COPR for Fedora 22, CentOS and RHEL](https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/g/cockpit/cockpit-preview/) + |
