hi all i am trying to run ltsp on ubuntu 8.04 . I want to run ltsp on nfs not on nmb any idea ?
01:05
<johnny>
why
01:05
it's slower
01:06
i can see the obvious difference
01:06
it's definitely noticable here
01:06
and that's just 4 machines
01:06
not sure why.. but it is
01:06
i would only run nfs for development
01:17vagrantc has joined #ltsp
01:20
<johnny>
aha.. vagrantc
01:20
where are you now?
01:20
<empiric>
jhonny i am doing cluster of 2 ltsp machines if 1 fails another comes up and heartbeat works on nfs ?
01:20
that why
01:21
<johnny>
there's a variable you can set in the chroot. in /etc/default
01:21
if you search the ubuntu wiki you can find the exact procedure
01:21
i don't recall the name of the page
01:21
<empiric>
ok
01:22
thats for me
01:22
right?
01:22
<johnny>
yes
01:22
it has ltsp and nfs in the title
01:22
or wait.. maybe it has devel
01:22
<empiric>
in /etc/default/ltsp-client-setup do root_write_method="bind_mounts" right
01:23
<johnny>
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/LTSPWithoutNFS
01:23
<empiric>
ok i got the doc
01:23
thanks
01:23
<johnny>
it's at the bottom of that page
01:23
<empiric>
hey what ant USB thing on thin cients
01:23
<johnny>
?
01:23
<empiric>
usb not working though all is ok
01:23
<johnny>
local devices are on by default
01:24
there's also a doc for local device debugging on that wiki as well
01:24
a list of steps
01:24
i don't know if it's been updated for hardy tho
01:24

hi, has anyone her managed to get the rdesktop screenscript to work on Ubuntu Hardy?
01:53
<johnny>
sounds like some people have
01:53
but they aren't here
01:53
try back on a weekday
01:54
<feinbein>
thanks, whats the best time? Evening?
01:55
<alkisg>
feinbein, I've managed it, what do you need?
01:56
<feinbein>
problem is: it doesnt seem to make a difference when I change /var/lib/tftboot/ltsp/i386/lts.conf
01:57
<alkisg>
You put SCREEN_07=rdesktop ?
01:57
<feinbein>
if I Crt-Alt-F6 the screen just goes black and nothing happens. When i use redesktop in the client it works just fine
01:58
<alkisg>
OK, I think the best way to "debug" this is to run rdesktop from the client native first, and then look at lts.conf
01:58
So, Ctrl+Alt+F1, login as root on a client,
01:58
then: env DISPLAY:6.0 rdesktop 192.168.0.1
01:58
then Ctrl+Alt+F6 and see if it works and if you can login. You'll see rdesktop on top of ldm.
01:59
<feinbein>
Crtl-ALt_F1 doesnt work for a start
01:59
<alkisg>
What do you have for SCREEN_XX in lts.conf?
02:00
<feinbein>
i have SCREEN_06 = rdesktop and SCREEN_05 = shell but both do not seem to work i just get ldm login on F7
02:00
i wonder if my lts.cong gets sourced at all
02:01empiric has joined #ltsp
02:01
<alkisg>
Maybe upload your lts.conf in pastebin?
02:01
<empiric>
jhonny
02:01
again
02:01
<feinbein>
never used that but let me try and figure it out
02:01
<empiric>
i want to run nfs instead of nbd
02:01
<alkisg>
feinbein, e.g. you may have forgotten the [Default] section or something...
02:02
<empiric>
i can not find that /etc/default/ltsp-client-setup
02:02
hows that could be
02:02
<alkisg>
empiric, /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/default/ltsp-client-setup (in hardy)
02:03
<empiric>
ok wait
02:04
<feinbein>
its up now!
02:04
<alkisg>
feinbein, ok, link?
02:04
<empiric>
no its not
02:04
there
02:04
<alkisg>
empiric, locate ltsp-client-setup ?
02:04
<empiric>
i think my ltsp-build client was not complete how can i check that
02:05
<feinbein>
http://pastebin.com/ddf586c7 if i get this right
02:05
<alkisg>
empiric, I don't know (I don't even know your distro), how about running it again?
02:05
<empiric>
ya doing
02:05
distro ubuntu 8.0.4
02:05
<alkisg>
empiric, ok, we have the same.
02:06
<empiric>
ok
02:06
cool
02:06
<alkisg>
feinbein, you should put [Default] as the first line in lts.conf
02:06
<feinbein>
just did that, must i now build again?
02:06
<alkisg>
no, nothing, just reboot the client
02:07
<feinbein>
ok, just doing that
02:10
<alkisg>
empiric, I think you should rm -rf /opt/ltsp/i386 to delete any broken versions before sudo ltsp-build-client
02:12
<feinbein>
alkisg, i just got into remote and could log in, but now I cant switch back to F5 or F7 to get the ldm-login
02:12
<empiric>
how i delete any broken versions
02:12
<feinbein>
but thanks for your answer, this got me a lot further.
02:12
<empiric>
i did rm -rf /opt/ltsp
02:13
<vagrantc>
feinbein: you'll need to specify SCREEN_07=ldm in addition to other SCREEN_NN entries
02:13
<alkisg>
empiric, I think it's OK, if you see any error messages tell us
02:13
<empiric>
sure
02:13
<alkisg>
feinbein, this is a problem:
02:13
<vagrantc>
only defaults to SCREEN_07=ldm if no other SCREEN_NN are defined.
02:14
<empiric>
it take an hour b/c my internet is slow and am doing build-cleint on 2 machines
02:14
will be back
02:14
thanks folks
02:14
<alkisg>
if you have SCREEN_07=ldm and SCREEN_06=rdesktop, you *can't use* ldm
02:14
<vagrantc>
??
02:14
<alkisg>
because rdesktop times outs every few seconds and restarts X
02:14
vagrantc, that's why I proposed a button in ldm instead
02:15
feinbein, you should first modify your windows server to disable rdp timeouts
02:15
<vagrantc>
sounds like a bug in something ... i didn't try it, but i'm pretty sure others had it working just fine.
02:15
<feinbein>
thats odd, i thought one can then switch form remote-desk to local client and back. is that not possible?
02:16
<alkisg>
I've tried it with windows 2008, I don't know about previous versions. Maybe there wasn't a time out then?
02:16
If you manage to login to the windows server, then everything works OK, no timeouts, no X restarting, you can switch properly.

ok, i will have to see into that a little further over the next days. thanks a lot for your help. I'll be back!

hi again, where do the screen.d scripts lie in LTSP5 /hardy?
05:36
should that not be /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/screen.d ?
05:37
if I change sth. in /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/screen.d/rdesktop it does not have any effect

is there anything in the logs?
06:01
<alkisg>
feinbein, what do you want to do?
06:10
<slappy>
I wanted all users of a group who shares a folder to have similar permissions on file creation (rw-rw----). That's why I thought a umask (002) for a specific group would be a great solution (even better if use with PAM). Is there any other way to solve my problem?

hi
07:04
<alkisg>
I don't know about nfs, sorry. Laga asked you about the logs, maybe you should answer him.
07:04
<generic>
i was just doing ltsp on hardy with nfs not with nbd
07:05
i run update-initramfs -u this command with out chroot sudo chroot /opt/ltsp/i386
07:06
now i i follow this link to use nfs for ltsp instead of nbd https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/LTSPWithoutNFS
07:06
no notjing in logs
07:06
its gets ip and image loads but then a blank screen
07:07
<alkisg>
Well, try to remove the "quiet splash" parameters to see what's going on, or logon to the terminal as root and see the syslog or something. I don't know about nfs, can't help.
