I have a fedora but I’m curious about Red Hat Enterprise Linux because they say fedora is a community version of red hat. I pirated Windows in years and it’s really easy but is there any way to crack RHEL? I know it’s not magical and I can use a free distro and have anything I need but for the sake of curiosity I need to try red hat linux and test it to find out how much effort they put on an enterprise product. I also know that there is a trial version or something but it’s good for me to learn cracking that (if it’s possible) because my future possibilities.
So please don’t tell me that doing this is not necessary or get the trial version, just be kind and provide what you know about pirating RedHat Enterprise Linux.
RHEL is dead easy to pirate. https://developers.redhat.com/products/rhel/overview A developer account is needed (it’s free) but after that you’re golden.
Pirating linux…that is a concept you don’t come across everyday. Dude, just move off of Red Hat and onto a linux distribution that is not a corporate mega-whatever. Debian, Arch…take your pick. Open source is free ship that lets you pirate from the corporate/priopriatary seas. Don’t make it harder.
You do realize that RHEL is open source, right? The “pirating” has already been done by RockyLinux (formerly CentOS).
Make no sense. Just download the ISO (from a torrent if you like “pirate stuff” or from official redhat after free registration) and install it. Dont sign-in, done.
Anyway what you pay for is supoort and online resources, not software.
Also, if you like “new” stuff use other distros. RHEL is for stability and long term support.
Obviously I’m not the user you’ve replied to, but what about SUSE Enterprise Linux Desktop, for example? I’ve got an ISO, but can’t update because I need to have a subscription… Am I making stuff up or am I SOL?
You could use OpenSUSE Leap, which is binary compatible to SLES. Even if you have an already installed SLES and want it to be updated, there are several ways, like setting up leap’s update repos (binary compatible, remember?), or download the latest quaterly updated iso image, or some other more convoluted ways.
There are some clones. Check AlmaLinux, CentOS…
