<jammcq>
you probably need to add your workstations to the /etc/hosts file

07:06patrick_ has joined #ltsp
07:06
<mascote>
jammcq: I already did this.
07:07jsgotangco has joined #ltsp
07:09patrick_ has quit IRC
07:10
<mascote>
jammcq: at the client, at text terminal, I whote "hostname -f" and the answer is: ws3
07:11
jammcq: in my /etc/hosts, at the LTSP Server, I have a line "192.168.0.3 ws3 ws3"
07:11
<jammcq>
mascote: that doesn't really tell us anything
07:11
you have 2 servers on your local network? a LTSP server and a web server?
07:11
<mascote>
jammcq: yes
07:12
<jammcq>
ok, the LTSP server has 1 or 2 network interfaces?
07:12
<mascote>
jammcq: 1
07:12
<jammcq>
and how about the web server?
07:13
<mascote>
jammcq: 2, one the internet link and another to local net
07:13
<jammcq>
ok, what distribution are you using on both servers?
07:13
<mascote>
jammcq: the LTSP and the Internet server are connect by a swicth
07:13
<jammcq>
are the workstations plugged into the same switch?
07:13
<mascote>
jammcq: yes
07:13
<jammcq>
what distro?
07:14
<mascote>
jammcq: LTSP=Red Hat EL4
07:14
<jammcq>
on both?
07:14
<mascote>
jammcq: Internet=Debian Sarge
07:14
<jammcq>
ok
07:14
hmm
07:14
what version of LTSP ?
07:15
<mascote>
jammcq: 4.2
07:15
I already use the LTSP from 3 years, from 3.4 version.
07:18
jammcq: I think the problem would be the dhcpd.conf, because the statement "options routers" was 192.168.0.200 (internet server) I changed to 192.168.0.203 (LTSP server), but the problem remain.
07:18
<jammcq>
the thin clients really don't need the 'routers'. a thin client ONLY talks to the LTSP server
07:18
<mascote>
jammcq: I just have 1 XDMCP server at my net, is the LTSP Server.
07:19
jammcq: ok, but I tried. ;-)
07:19
<jammcq>
what do you have in lts.conf, for 'SERVER' ?
07:19
<mascote>
jammcq: SERVER = 192.168.0.203
07:21
<jammcq>
ok, on the LTSP server, try running this:
07:21
tcpdump -i eth0 port 177
07:21
and then reboot one of the thin clients
07:24
<mascote>
[root@cpd3 etc]# tcpdump -i eth0 port 177
07:24
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
07:24
listening on eth0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 96 bytes
07:24
11:21:11.691663 IP ws3.1024 > cpd3.tum.com.br.xdmcp: UDP, length 7

<jammcq>
so, it's definately trying
07:24
<mascote>
jammcq: what?
07:24
<Envite>
I'm going home early today
07:24
bye all!
07:24
<jammcq>
that shows that ws3 is trying to connect to the server
07:25
ok, try running this:
07:25
<mascote>
jammcq: the client is connect.
07:25patrick_ has joined #ltsp
07:25
<jammcq>
did it work?
07:25
<mascote>
yes, because the internet server is on!
07:25
<jammcq>
oh
07:25
doh!
07:25
ok, when you get a chance, turn off the internet server, and run this:
07:25
<mascote>
I have to do this whithout the internet.
07:25
<jammcq>
tcpdump -s 1520 -w /tmp/tcpdump.out port 177
07:26
and while that's running, reboot ws3
07:26
and after 2 minutes, kill the tcpdump
07:26
<mascote>
jammcq: ok
07:26
<jammcq>
and email the /tmp/tcpdump.out file to jam@ltsp.org

jammcq: Does the ltsp kernel support Broadcom BCM4401 ethernet chips?
08:22
or rather, on my Dell laptop, I'm getting a kernel panic because it can't detect the ethernet chip
08:22
<jammcq>
umm, yeah, it has broadcom support. I think it's the tg3 module
08:23
<pscheie>
so I need to pass that as a kernel parameter for the client?
08:23
<jammcq>
yeah, prolly
08:29
<budgee>
jammcq: hey
08:30
jammcq: still not come right. think i might just shelve it and wait till it is release in XOrg 7.2 and then upgrade to LTSP 5

ogra: Ugh. How much trouble will the edsadmin licensing stuff be?
10:22* ogra woinders if vagrantc hides from him ...
10:22
<ogra>
moquist, upstream needs to add a note about the lgpl
10:23
or even the license directly
10:23
<cliebow_>
moquist: i feel like i missed a day..or something
10:24
<ogra>
Hi,
10:24
I've just rejected your edsadmin upload. It contains LGPL-ed files, but
10:24
there is no copy of the LGPL in the orig.tar.gz. Please fix and reupload.

morning

sadly i cant tweak the original source ... only the packaging, so upstream has to add the file

13:34J45p3r_ has joined #ltsp

thats ok, dont worry

<g333k_work>
ogra, really? after running ltsp-build-client my ltsp is supposed to be ready to go?
13:39

we'll have a gui in the near future ... (hopefully i have it ready for feisty (7.04) )
13:42
http://people.ubuntu.com/~ogra/LTSPManager/
13:42
some debian guy wanted to make a curses version of it ... so we might even have a nice commandline gui at some point if needed
13:44
<g333k_work>
ogra, wow! it sounds great
13:45* ogra will be afk now ... bbl

/var/lib/tftpboot

<g333k_work>
tftpd-hpa *
14:43
<sepski>
and i think atftpd is better
14:43
atlest i know it works since that's what i use
14:44
<g333k_work>
sepski, what should I put in the inet.conf file?
14:44
<sepski>
this is contents from my /etc/defaults/atftpd OPTIONS="--daemon --port 69 --tftpd-timeout 300 --retry-timeout 5 --no-multicast --maxthread 100 --verbose=5 /var/lib/tftpboot"
14:44
<g333k_work>
sepski, I use tftpd-hpa with ltsp 4.2 with no problems
14:45
<sepski>
dont know what tftpd-hpa would want
14:45
didn't say it woudn't work. only that i dont know it much
14:45
<g333k_work>

15:06
How do I tell ltsp to use another network interface?
15:06
ltsp 5 *
15:10
<sepski>
g333k, the dhcp config file contains the ip address of the interface that the client will try to pxeboot from, and the ip address it will try to nfs mount
15:10
and ofcouse the dhcp file will only serve the configured interface
15:16
<g333k_work>
sepski, because my server has two interfaces
15:16
<sepski>
so have mine. but i only run the dhcp server on the one where it should run

is there an nfs error somwhere above ?
16:03
if so , try rebooting the server to make sure nfs is started rigtht ... thats should solve it (unless you changed /etc/exports)
16:04
<g333k_work>
ogra, in /etc/exports I just have this line: /opt/ltsp *(ro,no_root_squash,async)
16:04
<ogra>
fine
16:04
just leave the defaults, the files are usually set up right ...
16:04
<g333k_work>
ogra, I think it must be /opt/ltsp/i386
16:04
<ogra>
no
16:04
<g333k_work>
or not?
16:04
ok

"ps ax|grep nfs" shows nfsd running ?
16:06

ogra, yep many
16:07
<ogra>
hmm
16:07
sudo mount localhost:/opt/ltsp/i386 /mnt
16:07
does that return without errors and mount the dir in /mnt ?
16:10
<g333k_work>
ogra, nop
16:10
ogra, there are many dirs mounted in /mnt
16:11
<ogra>
??
16:11
if you have already anything mounted there mout to anywhere else ...
16:11FernandoMM has quit IRC
16:11
<ogra>
we need to see if nfs works ...
16:12
did you change more stuff in the dhcp config ?
16:13
apart from the fliename option ?
16:13
<g333k_work>
ogra, I mean... after executing the line you told me, it mounted many dirs
16:13
<ogra>
ah, ok
16:13
the unmount /mnt again
16:13
*then
16:14
nfs seems fine, looks like your dhcpd config is broken
16:16
(the shipped file is usually fine)

16:21
<ogra>
where ?
16:22
you mean the filename option ? yes, else you wouldnt see the initramfs loading until the busybox shell comes up
16:23
hos does your root-path option look like ?
16:23
*how
16:26
<g333k_work>
ogra, can you pastebin your .conf files for me?

http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/1361/
16:27
(thats the unmodified default file btw ...)
16:30
oh207, indeed its not ...
16:30
ergh
16:30
replace "new" with i386
16:31
thats a change i made for a different kernel i tested ...
16:39
<g333k_work>
ogra, are you talking to me?
16:40
ogra, I got it,....
16:40
<ogra>
are any other people talking in here ? ;)
16:40
<jammcq>
not me
16:40
<ogra>
heh
16:41
<g333k_work>
ogra, why the subnet range is from 20 to 250?
16:41
<ogra>
jammcq, i wonder when vagrant will be around again i discovered some evil breakage he introduced ... i fixed it in ubuntu, but i think he wants it fixed in debian before they release etch
16:42
<sepski>
ogra, what was that ?
16:42
<ogra>
g333k_work, just beacues ... indeed you can use any range you like
16:42
sepski, ltsp-client-builder (the debian-installer part) has "--security-mirror none"
16:43
sepski, it was introduced by skole or debian-edu ... but i wonder if they ever tested it ...
16:43
<g333k_work>
ogra, my serve ip is 192.168.43.254, when I try to reload dhcpd i receive this error: /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf line 3: subnet 192.168.43.254 netmask 255.255.255.0: bad subnet number/mask combination
16:43
<ogra>
you end up with a line in your sources.list where the server name for security is set to nne ...
16:43
*none
16:43
<sepski>
ogra, we use that when installing from the cd when the security mirror is unavailable
16:44
<ogra>
well, it breaks ...
16:44
unless ubuntus apt is different to debians (which is very unlikely)
16:44
<sepski>
indeed.
16:44
im just builing a chroot from the etch ltsp now, checking in a minute
16:45
<ogra>
manage-mirror should either do a noop if thats set to none or we should drop it from the client-builder udeb
16:46
g333k_work, paste your /etc/ltsp/dhcpdconf anywhere ...
16:46
<g333k_work>
ogra, ok
16:46
<ogra>
/etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf indeed
16:47
<g333k_work>
ogra, http://pastebin.ca/314640
16:47
ogra, I know..
16:48
<ogra>
subnet 192.168.43.254 ?
16:48
thats not a network address
16:48
change it to 192.168.43.0
16:49
also drop the group stuff for now ... make it look exactly like mine (apart from "new") with your ip address ...
16:50
if you got it running re-add the group stuff line by line to check whats breaking it ...
16:50
i dont think putting the filename inside the group statement is a good ised (i'm not sure though)

<markit>
forgive my ignorance, but would be possible have a thin client using wireless to connect to the server and boot?
16:55
<ogra>
no ...
16:55
<markit>
Imean, buy those low power boxes with PXE rom booting capability and
16:55
ah, no :(
16:55
<sepski>
ogra, we use --mirror file:///cdrom --security-mirror none and we only get a single line in sources.list that saies deb file:///cdrom etch main local
16:56
<ogra>
even though there is an image from ltsp 3.something with a handfull of wireless drivers included ... you can try it ... look on the ltsp wiki
16:56
<markit>
ogra: you were relplying to me?
16:56
ok, thanks
16:57
<ogra>
sepski, well, i get a security line as well, and it *only* happens if i run it in d-i (i.e. from the udeb) it doesnt happen if i run it manually in a installed system ...
16:57
sepski, oh, and when i tested my CDs the system was not connected to a network ...
16:57
both might influence it ...
16:58
<sepski>
ogra, probably becouse we preseed it somewhat d-i ltsp-client-builder/build-client-opts string --mirror file:///cdrom --security-mirror none --components main,local --accept-unsigned-packages --dist etch --late-packages sitesummary-client,debian-edu-artwork,debian-edu-artwork-usplash --debconf-seeds /usr/lib/debian-edu-install/defaults.ltsp-chroot
16:58
<ogra>
well ... did you test it directly from CD ?
16:59
while in d-i mode ?
16:59
<sepski>
ogra, i only tested our debian-edu installer.
16:59bobby_C has quit IRC
16:59
<sepski>
but i do that 2-3 times a day.. :]
16:59
<ogra>
actually i dont care much about it, i can fix it easily for ubuntu ... but you should check it twice to make sure it doesnt affect you as well
17:00
<sepski>
i'd prefer that we do it in the same way
17:00
to avoide needless seperation
17:00
<ogra>
i was just worried about your release ... i still have plenty of time to fix it before the next ubuntu release
17:00
<sepski>
ill test the etch cd's too
17:01
<ogra>
sepski, well, i'll just have my own manage-mirror plugin ... that wont do any harm and wont diverge us
17:01
(thats the reason we have separate plugin dirs ;) )
17:01
<sepski>
im not that familiar with the codebase im afraid
17:02
<ogra>
in any case i dont understand why you dont get the second entry ... there is no code in manage-mirror that would catch "none" as a keyword to avoid it adding that second line
17:02
<sepski>
i guess the udeb is not working too well without debian-edu's preseedings then.
17:03
<ogra>
well until i merged all your changes it worked flawless for three releases in ubuntu :)
17:03
it just started with the recent merges
17:03
<g333k_work>
whre is the lts.conf?
17:03
in ltsp 5?
17:04
<ogra>
its only used to override autodetection ...
17:04
<Egyptian[Home]>
g333k_work: find / -name lts.conf -print
17:04
<ogra>
so there is none by default
17:04
create one in /opt/ltsp/i386/etc if you think you need one
17:05
a list with valid values and an example file are in /opt/ltsp/i386/usr/share/doc/ltsp-client/examples/
17:05
<g333k_work>
what's new in ltsp 5?
17:05
ogra, ok I thought it was in another locatioon than ltsp4
17:06
<sepski>
ogra, i guess we wait for vagrant. is there a bug in debian BTS ?
17:06
<ogra>
no, but it uses slightly different values in some places, so take a look at the value list
17:07
sepski, nope i just discovered it during a 36h iso test run where i didnt sleep i was to tired and to lazy to file a bug ....
17:07
g333k_work, http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/Ltsp5
17:08
g333k_work, ltsp5 is completely different to all former ltsp implementations
17:09cascade has joined #ltsp
17:09
<ogra>
and relies completely on distros implementing it (which didnt happen yet for others than ubuntu and debian)
17:09
<g333k_work>
ogra, I dont know if its time to move on to ltsp5 now... or stay in ltsp 4.2
17:09
<ogra>
redhat started a port but didnt show any success yet ... same for gentoo ....
17:09
suse isnt intrested in ltsp at all ...
17:10
<sepski>
g333k_work, works as a charm here :)
17:10
could spend some time on speeding up the booting time tho. but that goes for regular linux's too
17:10
<cliebow>
suse loses
17:10
<g333k_work>
sepski, what I use in ltsp4.2 is: local devices and I'm planning to use local applications
17:10
<ogra>
g333k_work, well, sbalneav switched his whole organization to edgy ltsp5 in october ... they use it in production for several hundret workplaces ...
17:11
<cliebow>
and edgy rocks!
17:11
<ogra>
and i know jammcq stared switching himself and his customers as well
17:11
<g333k_work>
ogra, wow!
17:11
<cliebow>
me too
17:11
<sepski>
local devices is much nicer in ltsp5 with ltspfs instead of the hackisly samba implementations
17:11
<g333k_work>
yep I'm using edgy here
17:12
<ogra>
sepski, well, its painful if you urgently want xdmcp ...
17:12
<g333k_work>
I'm using xfce (xubuntu), I installed student-control-panel to send messages to my clients, but the messages dont appear, why?
17:12
<ogra>
g333k_work, student-control-panel uses dbus ... i'm not sure xfce does
17:12
<g333k_work>
you must post the tricks for the old users of ltsp4.2, because ltsp5 is quite different
17:13
ogra, so how can I send popup messages to my clients using xfce?
17:13
<ogra>
sbalneav was working on rewriting a lot of the ltsp.org docs ... but then got new software in his organization which made probs ... he's fixing it since weeks
17:14
<g333k_work>
ok thats ok
17:14
<cliebow>
sbalneav is up to his ears
17:14
<ogra>
g333k_work, no idea ... its developed in gnome ... and i know it works in kde ... ask an xfce guy ...
17:14
<g333k_work>
is there any xfce guy here???
17:14
lol
17:15
<ogra>
g333k_work, there is a session script for s-c-p thats running a dbus listener in the users session ... if xfce doesnt use dbus it wont work
17:15
its /etc/X11/Xsession.d/80scp-client
17:20
<g333k_work>
ogra, xfce guys just told me that xfce do use dbus
17:20
<ogra>
right
17:20
then it should work
17:20
and you use xfce from a thin client ?
17:21
(it only works on thin clients)
17:21
<g333k_work>
ogra, my clients are desktop pcs, I think celeron without hard disk
17:22
<ogra>
it only works if you are logged in through an ltsp thin client via ldm ...
17:22
(beacuse its only designed for that purpose)
17:24
<g333k_work>
ogra, O come on! I really need to send popup messages to my clients, is there another way?
17:24
ogra, but I see my client... I can disconnect it
