Subject line kind of says it all. I am making a transition from running ‘vanilla’ servers to having a more secure setup and soon a development server.

Hi swanlan,

You can ask these types of questions either here on the forums, or on our [Mattermost server](https://chat.rockylinux.org)

I am a little confused. Should it be in General area here in the forums? I just joined and wanted to make sure I do it right. I loved Centos and wanting RockyLinux to take it’s place in my heart.

Thanks for the fast answer. 😀

Actually that is what I was trying to establish. Where is the best place to ask those questions - to help develop the help process and assist other users?

Swing and a miss for me… sorry I forgot to explain that. Yes, the General section here along with the general channel on Mattermost can be used for support!
