LabHub & ishare2 Updates ️
I should've stopped the polls an hour ago but I forgot. Consider this a grace period of time lol Anyway, according to the polls the changes will be well received by the community. The new name for the repositories project will be LabHub and the domain name…
✅️ NEW DOMAIN NAME
1 month after the new domain name was chosen, we finally got approved and now own: labhub.eu.org and you can already use it as the new site to look for images.

The domain "unetlab.cloud" will remain active for exactly 1 month and after that we'll no longer be the owners. Remember that old links will break after that time passes.

As for now, legacy repositories are surprisingly still up and running even after almost all shared drives got deleted some of the copies I had are still surviving. They will one day be removed tho. Since they are still alive and some people still use them, we'll move those to the new domain name as well before unetlab.cloud expires.

For now, only labhub.eu.org which will be the new main domain is available, subdomains will be added later.

I don't have much else to say other than stay tuned for new announcements as we go through the migration. I've been very busy lately so it might take me some time to respond or make new announcements so please be patient and if you have any questions or suggestions feel free to make them on the group chat.

🚫 REMEMBER:
unetlab.cloud will expire on: Apr 25, 2023

Hi everyone!
Good news! I finally had some time to organize images I had pending to release publicly over a month ago.
Since they're a lot I won't write them all in this message, instead I'll upload a txt file with the tree list of the files that were added.

A new update was done to UNETLAB II:
There are still some images pending to be added and remember it takes a little longer for ishare2 to show the latest additions, but the lists will be added in coming hours...
🆕 A total of 218 new images and updates were added last week to the repositories and are now also available on ishare2!

We are adding a couple more by the end of this week 🧑‍💻

LabHub & ishare2 Updates ️
⚡️Also a new update of ishare2 is coming soon which will hopefully make error handling easier and use aria2 to download the images It will also include the latest version of ishare2 GUI with improvements such as running as a systemd service 🙂
🆕 First part of the ishare2 update is finally done.
At first I wanted to take an error proof approach from the beginning thinking of all existing possibilities but then I figured I'd take it easy 😆

Anyway, this new version of ishare2 has a lot of changes, all details will be disclosed later in the GitHub repository but here's the most significant ones:
- ishare2 will have its own directory /opt/ishare2,
- it now uses aria2c to download images,
- it reuses already downloaded files to significantly improve speed and use slightly less bandwidth and outside requests,
- includes improved error handling and error logs to easily troubleshoot or report bugs.

This version is not yet available in the stable branch of ishare2.

👥 We need you! Please help us by testing the new version before release.

It's very simple to install the alpha version of ishare2 by simply running this command:
wget -O /usr/sbin/ishare2 https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pnetlabrepo/ishare2/alpha/ishare2 > /dev/null 2>&1 && chmod +x /usr/sbin/ishare2 && ishare2

(Notice the only change in the installation command is the branch name)

After you install it and use it, please report any bugs you find.

Keep in mind this version is unstable so it might not work as expected, to go back to the old version, run the installation command of ishare2 stable.

This version includes more verbose logging by default for testing purposes.

🗂 You can also check the latest changes to the source code here:

A new update was made to the alpha version of ishare2. It now includes the new version of ishare2 GUI.

👥 News: ishare2 v2.0.0 stable
Recently mentioned changes that were introduced to ishare2 alpha, were just merged with the stable branch. Please upgrade ishare2 to try them out!

During the testing phase the logging was verbose so we could identify issues easier, that output was reduced but it will still keep logs in the ishare2 directory.
What's staying is that ishare2 will show error messages if something goes wrong instead of just ignoring them.

Note that this is not a regular upgrade, but a very significant release because of the changes that were made and also, a lot of code was refactored and reviewed.

If you have any issues please let us know so we can fix the bugs ASAP.

The full changelog can be found on the GitHub thread and above messages.

I think this was never mentioned before but if you know even a little bit of bash or Python feel free to send a PR to the repositories. Your contributions will be appreciated.

Hi everyone, Alex here with more news

With the recently made update to ishare2 many issues started popping up regarding the aria2 package. I noticed many of them were related to the SSL certificate not being able to be verified so I added a new flag to skip that check in the aria2c command.

I apologize for any troubles it might've caused. I know it's annoying when tools don't work as they're supposed to.

I just pushed a new update v2.0.1!
This includes the SSL certificate fix and the next time you run ishare2 after you upgrade it, you'll be asked to choose if you want to use aria2 or wget for downloads.

I still recommend you to use aria2 if possible as it is more reliable. If you still don't want or can't use it, then you can choose not to.

ishare2 will read a value from a config file made by ishare2; /opt/ishare2/cli/ishare2.conf
If you don't want to use aria2 you can also manually switch USE_ARIA2 to false directly in that file. This will be simplified in future updates.

And speaking of future updates, Bash is becoming a bit annoying to work with so I am planning to port ishare2 to Python3. What's your opinion on that? (Let me know in the chat).

To update ishare2, run the same command as always:

wget -O /usr/sbin/ishare2 https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pnetlabrepo/ishare2/main/ishare2 > /dev/null 2>&1 && chmod +x /usr/sbin/ishare2 && ishare2


(Or use the upgrade menu, if it's not broken 😅)

The upgrade option for ishare2 had been broken for quite a while, I finally fixed it!

Use:
wget -O /usr/sbin/ishare2 https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pnetlabrepo/ishare2/main/ishare2 > /dev/null 2>&1 && chmod +x /usr/sbin/ishare2 && ishare2


to upgrade to the latest version of ishare2 which contains the fix, then you'll be able to use:
ishare2 upgrade 
and use option 1 to upgrade ishare2

Hi everyone, we now have Cisco ACI available: https://labhub.eu.org/UNETLAB%20I/OVA/acisim-5.2-1g

This appliance simulates a Cisco ACI environment. Use it to understand Cisco ACI features, exercise APIs, and initiate integration with third-party orchestration systems and applications.

Thanks to the user who let me know this image was available online 🙏🙂

(Remember it takes a little longer for the images to be added to ishare2)
