Hi.


I want ALL of "Clear Foundation" OFF my network, in the sense that I wish to disable ALL automatic updates and ALL "phone home" features.

I have now lost an entire week of productivity to various network failures, and every one of them can be traced to ClearOS -- and every failure is something that "hey, it worked when I installed it, what happened?"


I do not wish to have my systems changed, in any way, especially misguided "improvements," without my explicit consent.

I have work to do, and I wish to spend my time doing that work, not troubleshooting why my server is misbehaving. Once I get it working, you are to leave it alone until told otherwise.


Please advise how to make this work. I have attempted to firewall all of the IPs I can find related to you and the result is a spiteful system saying "if I can't phone home then you can't have the internet."
