I get TFTP Error Forbidden Directory
03:12
when i try to boot my client
03:12
can anyone help me regarding this?
03:24
<wizzy>
aa: Add a little verbosity to the tftp server - an extra -v -v in /etc/inetd.conf or /etc/xinetd/tftpd
03:25Avatara has joined #ltsp
03:26ogra has joined #ltsp
03:53
<aa>
wizzy: I used verbose mode in the tftgp client on the server itself
03:53
and tried to get some files but then also the same probs
03:54
Even when I intentionally type any filename which may not be present it gives same error Forbidden Directory
04:02
<wizzy>
aa: is the Forbidden Directory message in the server logs ?
04:03
or a client message ?
04:04
<aa>
its a client message
04:05
but when I try to use the tftp client which is present on the server then also the same error comes when i try to get the file from tftp server
04:05
<wizzy>
I find it mildly annoying on the Edubuntu thin client boot that I cannot separate the tftp-server from the root nfs-server. On 2.4 kernels, I could say option root-path "192.168.42.3:/diskless/petrel" - I cannot specify the host with the latest releases.
04:05
aa: What does it say in the server logs ?
04:06
aa: iptables in your way ?
04:07
<aa>
I am new to all this and so don't know where the server is there
04:07
i mean logs are there
04:08
<wizzy>
cd /var/log ; grep -lr tftp .
04:09
That should tell you which logs, if any, are being written by tftp server. The client environment is not set up without a kernel - debugging should be on the server
04:11
<aa>
no i think i am not able to explain u clearly
04:11
<wizzy>
aa: Do you have access to the server ?
04:13
<aa>
Actually Initially I started the server and started the client with the help of PXE bootable floppy but could not boot due to the mentioned error so afterwards to check the proper tftp is running i tried using the tftp client on the server itself and then also the same error came
04:13
<wizzy>
find the server logs first, and make sure the server is logging : -v -v
04:14
dont bother with anything else
04:14
<aa>
I have access to the server but the probs is that the machines are at my different office and here i m at other office so can't check and tell you now itself
04:14
I tried ltspadmin utility
04:14
and over that it says that tftpd is running

04:43
how i use them
04:43
any idea

Like any other printer, you probably don't need drivers for those.

<vaineh>
this may be a silly question but if my ltsp server doesnt have a soundcard is there any way i can still run a sound server for terminals to use or does it require the hardware?
05:48
<Empiric>
patina yes
05:48
i have ubuntu though
05:49
i have define [ws022]
05:49
PRINTER_0_TYPE = P
05:49
PRINTER_0_DEVICE = /dev/lp0
05:49
PRINTER_0_PORT = 9100
05:49
PRINTER_0_WRITE_ONLY = Y
05:49
in ltsp file
05:49
also fix an ip in dhcp
05:49
how i define in ubuntu print manager to get to the printyer
05:51
<wizzy>
Empiric: I would fix the address of the client with the printer (ws022) using DHCP, and then use that address in cups
05:52
<cliebow>
vaineh:yes syou need a sound card.preferably pci
05:52
<vaineh>
thx
05:52
<Empiric>
how i add in cups
05:52
<wizzy>
cliebow: for the /server/ ?
05:52
<Empiric>
wizzy
05:52
<cliebow>
lpd p[rinter
05:53
<Empiric>
is there any error in my config
05:53
<cliebow>
seems ok tot me
05:53
<wizzy>
http://server:631/
05:53
<cliebow>
just pretend it is a printserver jetdirect print server
05:54
<Empiric>
ok
05:54
wait let me check
05:54
<cliebow>
id use like printer admin
05:54
in ubuntu'
05:54
wizzy: no need for sound card in server
05:54
ltsp sound redirects sound
05:55
<vaineh>
cliebow: huh?
05:56
cliebow: didnt you just say i needed a sound card?
05:57
<cliebow>
no card needed for server..course you need one in client..you said it was a silly question
05:57
you'd be surprised some of the questions 8~)

05:59
im not getting anywhere with it at the moment anyway

let ogra have a syab at that one
06:10

06:12
<Empiric>
wizzy i have gnome
06:13
i have defined jet direct with ip of thinclient and port 9100
06:13
<ogra_>
Empiric, are you using edgy ? there was no printer support before edgy in ubuntu
06:13
<Empiric>
yes
06:15
<ogra_>
the login manager (ldm) should show you the ip of the client ...
06:15
use the gnome-print dialog and add a JetDirect printer with the ip and port set
06:16
(and select the proper driver indeed)
06:16
<cliebow>
bbiab
06:16
ograa:any reason you cant pick another nfs?
06:17
server?
06:17

no

09:11
<vaineh>
is there a way i can find out which terminals and their hostnames are currently connected to an ltsp server ???
09:11
<cliebow_>
vaineh:there is teachertool
09:12
or you could swipe the netstat command from it
09:14
<vaineh>
where can i get that
09:15patrickb has joined #ltsp
09:15
<cliebow_>
pastebin.com/
09:15
just a sec
09:16
taking 14 forevers
09:18
<pscheie>
vaineh: google fl_teachertool, first one on the list
09:18
<vaineh>
ta
09:18
<cliebow_>
well for a start..netstat -t -e|grep X11
09:19
vaineh:my old teach is in weird science and experimentsl if you want it
09:19
lordy: cant get a rise out of pastebin
09:21
<vaineh>
according to that nothing has X11 in it
09:22
<cliebow_>
x11
09:23

<vaineh>
why is sound such a bugger
09:48
<Gadi>
vaineh: are you not getting sound at all?
09:48
<vaineh>
nope
09:49Stevec has left #ltsp
09:49
<Gadi>
is the thin client loading the driver for the soundcard and running esd?
09:49
<vaineh>
i was trying to follow the wiki section but i dont know what bits aren't working
09:50pioto has quit IRC
09:50pioto has joined #ltsp
09:50
<Gadi>
start at the lowest level and work your way up
09:50
start with the soudncard on the thin client
09:50
then esd on the thin client
09:50
then configure the apps on the server
09:50
to use esd
09:51
that would be my way to debug
09:51
<vaineh>
i dont understand, i thought esd was on the server not the client
09:51
<Gadi>
nope
09:51
esd is a daemon that runs on the client
09:51
by default
09:51
as long as it finds a driver for the soundcard
09:52
<vaineh>
how do i know if its doing that?
09:52
<Gadi>
the apps on the server are "esd clients" to the esd daemon on the thin client
09:52
you could set: SCREEN_02 = shell
09:52
reboot the terminal
09:52
hit ctrl-alt-f2
09:52
<vaineh>
ahhh... yeah ive done that, but i dont get anything on screen 2
09:52
<Gadi>
and at the shell, type: ps|grep esd
09:52
<vaineh>
:(
09:52
<Gadi>
did you reboot the terminal?
09:53
<vaineh>
yeh
09:53
<Gadi>
thats impossible
09:53
which LTSP are you using?
09:55klausade has joined #ltsp
09:55
<vaineh>
4.1
09:56
<Gadi>
perhaps something is broken?
09:56
SCREEN_02 = shell
09:56
should work
10:00
<vaineh>
ok, i know what the screen problem is
10:01
on a couple of the workstations im using a flashcard loaded with pxe cos the network cards dont allow boot
10:02
on another workstation with decent network card i get screen

an ls -l on /dev/dsp gives /dev/dsp -> sound/dsp in the shell on screen02
10:12
<Gadi>
what about: ps|grep esd
10:12
or: ps -ael|grep esd
10:13
<vaineh>
/bin/esd -nobeeps -tcp -port something
10:14
its there
10:14xbow has quit IRC
10:14
<Gadi>
great, so clients done - do you have spkrs/headphone on that client?
10:14
<vaineh>
yeah
10:14
<Gadi>
ok, ctrl-alt-f1 back to linux and log in
10:14
<vaineh>
yep
10:15
<Gadi>
ok, are you in gnome? kde?
10:15
<vaineh>
kde
10:15
<Gadi>
ah, this is easier in gnome (for me, anyway)
10:15
<vaineh>
:)
10:15
<Gadi>
somewhere in the kde control center, find sound
10:15
:)
10:15
<vaineh>
yep
10:15
<Gadi>
ok, set the sound server to esd
10:16
it may be sound sink or sound output or some such
10:16
<vaineh>
select audio device?
10:16
<Gadi>
but, somewhere there should be an "Enlightened Sound Daemon" option
10:16
<vaineh>
i dont see it
10:17
<Gadi>
what under audio device?
10:17
<vaineh>
auto, alsa, jack audio, no audio, oss, thread open sound system
10:17
are the options
10:18
i can overrid the device location and put in other custom options
10:18
<Gadi>
ah, you are probably lacking an esound package on the server to add that as an option
10:18
what distro?
10:18
<vaineh>
suse 10
10:19
<Gadi>
can you use your package manager to try and find a client package for esd
10:19
could be libesd
10:19
or esound-clients
10:19
or some such
10:19* Gadi not familiar with suse package names
10:19
<vaineh>
righto, i'll have a look
10:19
<Gadi>
I think that was the big hangup
10:20
once you have it in there, esound should be another option
10:20
and that *should* make things work better
10:20
alternatively, I know some kde folks use NAS (SOUND_DAEMON = nas) in lts.conf, which may work better for you
10:21
but, dont go down too many different roads at once
10:21
you'll go mad
10:21
<vaineh>
lol
10:22
<Gadi>
keep in mind, Novell doesnt really optimize for LTSP
10:22
so, thats why the pkgs you may need might not be in a default install
10:22
and some of their default apps may not be the friendliest for LTSP sound
10:23
not to scare you, just a heads up
10:23
ill stop babbling now
10:23
<vaineh>
lol no worries
10:24
"esound" is installed
10:24
and "esound-devel"
10:25
<Gadi>
ok, see if it comes up as an option on the list
10:25
<cliebow_>
please babble..
10:25
<vaineh>
no i mean it was already installed
10:25
:/
10:25
<Gadi>
ah, are there any other packages with esound?
10:26
sometimes they split the server from the client
10:26
search for "esd"
10:26
or "esound"
10:27
<vaineh>
just got those 2 really
10:27
a couple of esd plugins
10:27
nothing else really
10:27
<Gadi>
if it seems like its installed, pop open a terminal window and type: esd<tab><tab>
10:27
see if there are a few esd executables in the system
10:27
<vaineh>
esdplay etc
10:27
esdrec
10:27
<Gadi>
ok, so its installed
10:28
esddsp?
10:28
<vaineh>
yep
10:28
<Gadi>
is that one of them?
10:28
ok, good
10:28
go back to the kde control panel - is there still no esd?
10:28
<vaineh>
nope
10:29
<Gadi>
ok, then I would prolly try the path of least resistance at this point and put: SOUND_DAEMON = nas
10:29
in lts.conf
10:29
and reboot the terminal
10:29
oh, actually, before the reboot,
10:30
<vaineh>
yep
10:30
<Gadi>
I seem to remember when using NAS and KDE, you have to go into the advanced section of the KDE control panel and turn the sound buffering down to the lowest level
10:30
<vaineh>
righto
10:31
<Gadi>
then log out, and reboot the terminal and see if you get lucky (/me knows so little about KDE+ NAS)
10:31
but, I think there's more on the wiki
10:31vaineh has quit IRC
10:31vaineh has joined #ltsp
10:32
<Gadi>
oops, I think its SOUND_DAEMON=nasd
10:32
not nas
10:32
sorry
10:32
see if this helps: http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/MdkSound
10:34
if I could get a witness from the KDE congregation at this point, it would be useful!
10:34
<vaineh>
k just gonna follow tha tguide
10:40
sigh, fallen at the first hurdle, nas not installed and not coming up in the list of stuff to install

Not sure about unstable
12:36
<jammcq>
what's left?
12:51
<vagrantc>
jammcq: uh, yeah, it's in testing.
12:51
jammcq: hopefully soon to be stable.
12:51
jammcq: and unstable- the vesion in unstable and testing is the same.
12:51
<jammcq>
vagrantc: ah, cool. I get to stand up in front of a bunch of folks here at OSDL in a couple of minutes, and I wanna make sure that I speak the truth
12:51
so, Unstable AND Testing have LTSP-5
12:52
<vagrantc>
jammcq: i meant, it's not a complete implementation- missing localdev and local printing, but nearly everything else.
12:52
jammcq: what i really wonder is... when will we see an LTSP 5 upstream :P
12:54
<Mathesis>
se vagrantc

checking if image is initramfs... it isn't (bad gzip magic numbers); looks like an initrd _

dberkholz: URL ?
13:12
<dberkholz>
http://code.2x.com/linuxterminalserver
13:12
<vagrantc>
seems like there's some namespace conflict with LTSP
13:13
<jammcq>
hmm, seems kinda like it, eh?
13:14
'TerminalServer' != 'Terminal Server' ?
13:14
<dberkholz>
it's tough when you've got a generic-sounding name like that
13:14
<vagrantc>
maybe using computer logic, but using human eye-brain logic ...
13:15
<jammcq>
the 2x guys hired the PXES guy I think
13:22kurt has joined #ltsp

looks like the 2x code includes a private implementation of SQLite, libpng and a could other things :(
13:26
passwd ... gross.
13:26
it's almost like an LBE :)
13:31
<kurt>
anyone in here good with the localdev stuff in 4.2???
13:35
<jammcq>
oh, you just missed sbalneav, he was here about 10 minutes ago
13:35
what's the problem?
13:35
<vagrantc>
i was comparing the 2x codebase to the LBE in that it seems like it's almost it's own linux distribution.
13:36CaPriCoRN^80 has joined #ltsp
13:38
<kurt>
jammcq: heres the deal. I've a server loaded up with CentOS 4.4 and have the localdev items installed.
13:39
on the station I can log into my kde desktop and plug in a usb drive and I get the icon on my desktop as i should, but there is nothing in it.
13:39
<jammcq>
sounds like a FUSE problem
13:40
all the message passing is working, the icon appears
13:40
but there's no filesystem support behind it
13:40
<kurt>
exactly.
13:40* vagrantc wonders who jammcq is talking to/with ...
13:40
<jammcq>
vagrantc: talking to kurt, don't you see him?
13:40
<vagrantc>
jammcq: no ... weird.
13:41
<CaPriCoRN^80>
i got same problem on k12-ltsp
13:41
<dberkholz>
got a weird ignore regexp?
13:41
<jammcq>
hmm, maybe you have an /ignore setup to ignore him
13:41
CaPriCoRN^80: tell us your problem, maybe we can help
13:41
<CaPriCoRN^80>
my users were working fine n usb was working . but suddenly few users got this problem
13:42
<kurt>
jammcq: any place you can think to look at off hand? I built the latest version of fuse from sf.net
13:42
<CaPriCoRN^80>
thaty usb folder appears on Desktop but no data in it
13:42
<vagrantc>
heh. i think some years ago there was some Kurt who was really annoying me ...
13:42
<jammcq>
kurt: you need to follow this troubleshooting document: http://wiki1.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/LTSP-42-LocalDev#Troubleshooting
13:42
<kurt>
been through that several times trust me.
13:43
<jammcq>
ok, you need to provide all of the answers to all 12 questions to Scott Balneaves <sbalneav@ltsp.org>
13:43
he'll be able to see where the problem is
13:43
<kurt>
will do. Thanks Jim!
13:43
<jammcq>
noprob
13:43
<CaPriCoRN^80>
as i told that .. my users usb was working fine but suddenly it was creating problem . when user insert usb . Usb folder appears on Desktop but no files show in the usb
13:43
<jammcq>
CaPriCoRN^80: hmm, sounds just like kurt's problem
13:44
check that you have the fuse.ko module loaded
13:44
make sure your users are part of the 'fuse' group
13:44
<CaPriCoRN^80>
the folder is empty
13:45
n further more is that i have done all these steps of wiki
13:47
still i m facing problem
13:47
<jammcq>
CaPriCoRN^80: I'll repeat the same thing I told Kurt. Run through the troubleshooting guide. Write down all of the answers to all 12 steps, and email it to sbalneav@ltsp.org
13:49

14:37

kurt: cool. what was it?
14:37
<kurt>
well, I'm a bit rusty on my udev rules but is the NAME field required in a udev rule?
14:38
<jammcq>
umm, yer asking the wrong guy
14:38
<kurt>
well, it looks like when you build fuse from source it put a udev rule out there that doesn't seem to do its job
14:39CaPriCoRN^80 has quit IRC
14:39
<kurt>
doesn't set the right permissions on /dev/fuse anyways.
14:39
<jammcq>
ah, the old "Compile from Source" issue
14:39
<kurt>
Once I changed that all was well.
14:39
yeah, darn that OSS software :-)
14:40
<dberkholz>
there's a good udev rules howto on reactivated.net or so, google for udev rules howto
14:40
<kurt>
gotta love it though!
14:40
anyways thanks for the idea to look into fuse more. Hopefully me and craig might get up to mug next week.

14:49
as i have the same problem with usb's
14:50
<kurt>
did you compile fuse from source?
14:50
<CaPriCoRN^800>
so wat was the problem
14:50
as u were saying that u have tried those steps again n again
14:50
<cliebow_>
bbiab
14:50cliebow_ has quit IRC
14:51
<kurt>
CaPriCoRN^800: the issue was the udev rule that the fuse install put into place. it wasn't setting the proper permissions on /dev/fuse
14:52
<CaPriCoRN^800>
so wat u did for that ?
14:52
also can u tell me on which step u figure that problem ?

i need help with configuring my eth
14:54
<kurt>
under the Debian-Edu/Skolelinux section it talks about adding a udev rule...
14:55
<CaPriCoRN^800>
i just only add my users to this .. usermod -G fuse -a user1 .. thats wat i did in this section
14:55
wat else u did that its working ?
14:55
<kurt>
KERNEL="fuse", NAME="%k", MODE="0666",OWNER="root" GROUP="fuse"
14:55
<mrlinux>
i need to have what is currently eth1 i need it to be eth0 any help
14:55
<kurt>
do you see that line
14:56
<CaPriCoRN^800>
yes
14:56
i hve Fedora
14:56
<kurt>
put that into /etc/udev/rules.d/99-fuse.rules
14:56
<CaPriCoRN^800>
so i m watching that
14:56
<kurt>
remove what is currently in that file.
14:56
<jammcq>
CaPriCoRN^800: before you worry about udev, take a look at the current perms on /dev/fuse
14:57
<CaPriCoRN^800>
k
14:58
<kurt> put that into /etc/udev/rules.d/99-fuse.rules ... how ?
14:58
<kurt>
first, do as jammcq suggested. what are does ls -l /dev/fuse show?
14:58
<CaPriCoRN^800>
as there is no setting mentioned for Fedora
14:59
<pscheie>
mrlinux: what distro?
14:59
<CaPriCoRN^800>
only one line for Fedora i.e usermod -G fuse -a someuser
14:59
<mrlinux>
Edubuntu
15:00
<CaPriCoRN^800>
ah .. i m not in office .. i only got doc n i have output of all these steps
15:00
<pscheie>
I can't recall: does *buntu have modprobe.conf or modprobe.d?
15:00
<kurt>
CaPriCoRN^800: capricorn forget the instructions for a second. what does ls -l /dev/fuse show?
15:00
<CaPriCoRN^800>
kurt : u just tell me wat permission u set for /dev/fuse ?
15:01
<kurt>
0666 and owned by the fuse group
15:01
<CaPriCoRN^800>
i m telling u i m not in my office . thats y i cannot check it now
15:02
<kurt>
i see.
15:02
<CaPriCoRN^800>
thats y i m asking about ur settings
15:02
<kurt>
that is what my problem was. if you built fuse from source there is a good chance that is problem. Now if you installed the fedora fuse package then it might not apply.
15:03
<str4nd>
why some ltsp clients boots to tty1.. not X at default? (Ctrl+Alt+F7 always :-( )
15:03
<CaPriCoRN^800>
u mean chmod 0666 /dev/fuse
15:03efra has quit IRC
15:03

15:04

CaPriCoRN^800: then chgrp fuse /dev/fuse

kurt is that ok ?
15:05
ok
15:05

yep
15:05

anything else
15:05

that did it for me
15:06
<CaPriCoRN^800>
wat ?
15:06
<kurt>
what we just discussed
15:06
<pscheie>
mrlinux: one of the files in there has the aliases for things like eth0 and eth1
15:06
I forget which file, but just change the aliases around

17:58
crashzor: updaet-alternatives --config x-session-manager

er, update-alternatives
17:58
i *think* that should work.
17:58

i wil have look @ it :)
17:59
vagrantc, its a other version of xfce so it give me back there is only 1 session typ installed grrr
18:00* vagrantc would recommend using whatever came with the distro
18:01

i needed to upgrade it because the old version had a bug that users coud shutdown the SERVER
18:01
<vagrantc>
surely that can be disabled ...
18:02* vagrantc has had idiotic problems with XFCE hard-coding in the past
18:02
<crashzor>
vagrantc, in the new version its fixt because in the old version it coud not be disable'd

so now i have a session in whits users can shutdown the server

what part ? :P

18:56

it woud be bad if you start reading the manaul just to give me the right command ;)
18:56
then i can also just read it myself :) ( hate it to let others read for me )
18:57
<vagrantc>
well, i've used it a number of times, and the manpage only made sense to me after having used update-alternatives time and time again
18:57
but i encourage you to read it :)
18:57
i just cringe at the thought of hacks that will break on upgrades.
18:58

aah oke sameting like :( <== :P
18:59

i've worked with other sysadmins who did such hacks a little too often and then, mysteriously, things would break after security updates.
19:00
and you end up weighig the merits of a security update, knowing you'll have to fix a bunch of random problems.

vagrantc, there you have a option but i admin same multi users servers then i keep clean of hackish fixes :P
19:03
vagrantc, this is just for the ppl in my house sins i'm fuck if there is no backup so then you get the system my way and i just want to get the last windows pc away ;) work al of those god dam windows system out of the network :p i still see windows machine's like a security risk
19:04
and if the shit gets hacked or file's get lots they wil look @ me anyway ;)
19:06
i stil belief if i can't read the source its a security risk ;)
19:07* vagrantc finds it more valuable that *lots* of people read the source, as vagrantc can't read much :)
19:08
<crashzor>
vagrantc, i just started @ C but its because everbody can read it so easy hacks are pickup and fixt really quick ;)
19:09
