I am trying to compile a kernel with nfsroot, but can not find the option to enable it. Any one know where it is, or if I need to enable something else too?

Found it, need to enable "IP: kernel level autoconfiguration".

Hello
06:45
I have some questions i would like to ask
06:46
Ive been reading stuff about the linux terminal server project
06:47
And im interested in linking about 40 computers
06:48
I saw some mention of "fat" clients
06:48
Im not very familiar with the terminology here.. I know what a terminal server is and I understand how things work with thinclients
06:49
but what about fat clients?
06:49
Are these clients that boot localy and log onto the server where they have diskspace allocated to them?
06:50
Do they have applications installed locally and run them with their CPUs?
06:50
Or do the terminal principles of everything running on the server apply?
06:51
The hardware i have available is not bad at all and Id like a setup where their computing power can be used
06:52
since we are talking about 40 users simultaniously working on computers... i suppose it would be quite hard on the server... so if applications could be installed on the server but ran by the clients, that would be ideal
06:53
not sure if this is what "fat" clients are.
06:53
Can someone clarify it for me please?
06:55
<Patina>
Sounds like you want "local apps", look for that in the docs.
06:57
<InfraRed`>
I read about those ... theres even an example of firefox as a local app
06:58
But i didnt quite understand
06:58
can any application be a local app?
06:58
is this defined on each client?
06:58
would this be thin clients with local apps or... ?
06:59
Thing is that most computers id have would be laptops and I was thinking if i could get them into a setup where people could use the PC outside the office as their PC and as a terminal while in the office

<Jane_ux>
hi every1
07:08
<InfraRed`>
hi
07:08
<Jane_ux>
i am working with LTSP and ubuntu, I did a LTSP network for a kind of a small public library
07:08
I want the terminal computer to restore the home folder each time the user logout
07:08
i made a simple script to delete and then copy the user home folder
07:08
i put the script it in the init.d, so the home folder is restored, but when the server is restarted
07:08
how can i do it when the terminal restart?? can i use the bashrc_logout or the /gmd/postsession/default??
07:08
sorry, when the terminal log out
07:10
any idea??
07:11
<InfraRed`>
(i know far too little to provide any solution in linux, much less this LTSP thing but) perhaps if you would put a line at the end of whatever runs when someone logs out/in
07:12
<Jane_ux>
:) obviously
07:12
thanks anyway
07:14
<InfraRed`>
another solution perhaps
07:14
if u just have 1 user account
07:14
u could go to
07:15
erm... where is it, just a sec
07:15
<Jane_ux>
lol
07:16
<InfraRed`>
System > administration > sessions
07:16
and tell it to execute that script.
07:16
that should run when users log in.
07:17nantes_geek has quit IRC
07:19
<Jane_ux>
if I place the script in the init.d folder of the LTSP image it will be executed when the terminal restarts?
07:20
infrared: in sessions the /home folder is already mounted, so dont know if its possible
07:22
<InfraRed`>
when it restarts physically i guess.
07:23
Jane_ux, u could just delete the files in it
07:24
u could probably unmount it and remount it i guess.
07:24
dont know enough about this stuff, just brainstorming

hiiii

<Jane_ux>
how can i execute a script when the client-terminal logout???
08:06indradg has joined #ltsp
08:06
<Jane_ux>
hiiii
08:07
which is the log-out process in LTSP? Where can I place an script to be executed when logout?
08:18
hiiiiiiiiiiii
08:18
any1 there??
08:18
Where can I place a script to be executed in logout time in edubuntu(LDM)?
08:21
<InfraRed`>
im here
08:22
but i never even tried LTSP, still looking into it
08:22
the whole FAT client is a bit unclear to me
08:22
i understand thin clients and all
08:22
but not sure about what this fat stuff is
08:22
Jane_ux, did u try putting it into the sessions? perhaps it it will execute
08:23
<Jane_ux>
heyyy infra I think i was clear in my question
08:23
do u know Where can I place a script to be executed in logout time in edubuntu(LDM)?
08:24
if you dont know it just say so, nothing more :)
08:24
<InfraRed`>
i did mention i dont know
08:24
<Jane_ux>
anyway thanks
08:24
<InfraRed`>
im just trying to see if there are other options for what u want done
08:25
if your main objective is to restore the home dir because u dont want people dumping files into it...
08:25
<Jane_ux>
but you repeated 3 times d session thing
08:25
<InfraRed`>
that can be done in numerus ways i think, of which logout is the most complicated one i guess
08:25
yeah, sorry, dont mind me, im a noob.
08:26
<Jane_ux>
:)
08:27
with 200 users mayb its not bad idea in logout, anyway i just wanna know it
08:27
Where can I place a script to be executed in logout time in edubuntu(LDM)? !!!!!

Jane_ux: take a deep breath and quit flooding the channel.
08:31
Do you want the script to run as the user? or are you wanting to do administration type stuff?
08:32
aka root
08:32Faithful has joined #ltsp
08:32
<Jane_ux>
as user would be enough, iguess
08:33
<rjune>
ok, as the user, you need to look at the environment you're using.
08:33
<Jane_ux>
i want restore the home folder, remove it and copy a default 1
08:33
<rjune>
ah.
08:34
when I did that I made it part of the logon script.
08:34
<Jane_ux>
ii think i ll do it with runlevels
08:34
which logon script???
08:34
<rjune>
the very first thing I did upon login was wipe the home dir and copy in a new one.
08:34
KDM login script.
08:34
are you using ltsp 4 or 5
08:35
<Jane_ux>
ltsp5 with ubuntu
08:35
ahhh ok
08:35
but i preffer in logout
08:35
i think i ll place it in rc5.d
08:46
<InfraRed`>
told u logout was difficult ;D
08:46
rjune, while you are in the process of answering questions...
08:47
I have looked into local apps a bit
08:47
<rjune>
ok.
08:47
<InfraRed`>
whats the status with that? I read that its quite difficult at the moment
08:47
<rjune>
Not sure with ltsp5 I've never used it
08:47
<InfraRed`>
is there any tools for this?
08:48
i mean,... hows it look on other versions?
08:48indradg has quit IRC
08:48
<InfraRed`>
I have some pcs id like to put into a terminal server network for purpuses of administration
08:49
But since theres a lot of computers and it would slow the server
08:49
it would serve me well if applications would be installed on the server but ran locally
08:49
<rjune>
LTSP 4 was a pain
08:50
I thought ltsp 5 would make it easier as you're using a distro, so install the ldap tools, configure it and go
08:50
<InfraRed`>
i see
08:50
So basically local apps are stored on the server and then loaded into the memory of the clients that request it and ran from there with their resources?
08:53
<rjune>
with local apps yeah kinda
08:53
more like the terminals mount the fileserver and run programs off of that
08:53
<InfraRed`>
i see
08:54
Is there a way to have this with "fat" clients
08:54
I mean the computers id be converting to clients are laptops and it would be nice if they arent dead weight outside the office
08:55
So i would like them to be independent outside the office, but act as terminal clients in the office
08:55
possible?
08:56
whats the difference between fat clients and thin clients with local apps?
09:01
<rjune>
effectively using local apps turns the thin client to a fat client
09:02
for your laptops, you might be better served using NX or vnc
09:02
<InfraRed`>
nx?
09:05
googled it up, never mind
09:05
hm...
09:06
one more question
09:06
how does linux run multiple instances of the same program?
09:07
i mean memory wise
09:07
if i have 3 users that all run say openoffice and firefox
09:07
their content of course, being different will need its own space.. but what about the programs GUI etc
09:10
<Jane_ux>
ltsp use the normal runlevels, rc0.d rc1.d, etc?????
09:10
<InfraRed`>
what i mean is... if program A takes 100mb program B 100mb and program C 100 mb of memory
09:11
does running 3 instances of program A consume the same amount of resources as running A B and C ?
09:12
<Jane_ux>
are they logged in as the same user??
09:12
<InfraRed`>
no, different user
09:13
<Jane_ux>
so they are not instance, i guess
09:13
so they run 3 different programs, A,B and C
09:13indradg has joined #ltsp
09:14
<InfraRed`>
was thinking if it would be possible to have some user abstraction that would route users like a switch
09:15
so basically it would be 1 username that other usernames would work through so that instances would be created ... but then again, a user ends the program and everthying goes bye bye... never mind
09:16
hell, i think ssh -X is the closest to what id want...

I just want to sleep, but I'll see if anybody has any questions.
09:38
I've been working on a few different things but nothing is in shape for checkin yet.
09:39
keyboard layout, ability to set a session default
09:42
<petre>
why the urge to sleep now? Were you up all night?
09:44
<warren>
chronic pain
09:44
I had a good 8 hours of sleep
09:45
anyway, the upcoming LTSP hackfest should theoretically bring a flood of new stuff
09:45
<petre>
sorry to hear about the pain.
09:46
<warren>
If not code, at least agreement on exactly what we want
09:46
<petre>
hackfest in OR?
09:46
<warren>
yes
09:46
<petre>
what ideas are floating around?
09:46
local apps, I suppose
09:47Subhodip has joined #ltsp
09:48
<warren>
local apps is the big one
09:49Jane_ux has joined #ltsp
09:50
<Jane_ux>
how can I execute a script in LTSP when the client/thin user log in??
09:51
<petre>
put it in /etc/rc.d/rc.local?
09:51
<warren>
Jane_ux: script on the server as the user, or as the client?
09:55
<Jane_ux>
as the client
09:55
<rjune>
warren: you do anything with xen?
09:56
<Jane_ux>
i am trying in the rc0.d and rc2.d
09:56
but it doesnt seems to work
09:56
<warren>
Jane_ux: that part works completely differently on fedora so I can't help you
09:56
rjune: sort of
09:56
<Jane_ux>
ok warren
09:56
thanks anyway
09:56
<rjune>
warren: I have vm disk image with two partitions on it. I need to mount one of the partitions.
09:57
<warren>
i've done that once, there is a command to do it...
09:58
I always forget what that command is
09:58
<rjune>
if the image had no partitions, that's easy, mount -oloop
09:59
<laga>
i think you can tell it the offset of the partition
10:00
<warren>
there is a command that actually reads the partition format inside the image
10:00
and makes the partitions available as block devices
10:01
<rjune>

10:06
<Jane_ux>
heyyyy
10:06
<warren>
kpartx
10:06
<Jane_ux>
do u know if ltsp run rc2.d in ubuntu????
10:07
<warren>
rjune: does your distro have kpartx?
10:07
<Jane_ux>
I placed an script there but but it doesnt execute??!! :(
10:08
<rjune>
warren: dunno
10:08
what is kpartx?
10:08
this is on opensuse
10:08
<warren>
kpartx uses devicemapper to read a file image and make partitions in the image available as block devices
10:08
in /dev

ok, i ll b more precise
10:46
i want to restore the home folder of the user when he login
10:47
by removing and then copy the default home folder
10:47
using a simple script that it is working
10:47
<InfraRed`>
k
10:48
<Jane_ux>
if I add the script into sessions, the srcript run ok, but gnome av some errors
10:48
<InfraRed`>
id suggest what i already suggested... system preferences sessions
10:48
put the script u have there
10:48
<Jane_ux>
because have deleted its home folder
10:48
<InfraRed`>
it should execute when a user logs into the desktop
10:48
<Jane_ux>
:)
10:48
yes it does
10:48
but
10:48
<InfraRed`>
dont delete the home folder
10:49
leave the home folder as it is, just delete whatever is inside it
10:49
except for gnome stuff of course
10:49
<Jane_ux>
but i need to delete everything
10:49
in case the user chane gnome configuration files
10:49
<InfraRed`>
ah
10:50petre has joined #ltsp
10:50
<Jane_ux>
how to tell gnome to use this new home folder as home????
10:50
<InfraRed`>
i think it needs to be restarted.
10:50
or...
10:50
perhaps u should copy over it
10:50
thoguh i doubt it
10:50
i think there may be a different solution
10:51
<Jane_ux>
i av been thinkin hard, and i think the best way is that 1
10:51
but maybe i could execute the script before gnome is execute??
10:51
how can i do that??
10:52
<petre>
warren: any idea what would cause all fonts under X on the server to get trashed?
10:52
<InfraRed`>
Jane_ux, that would have to do with GDM then ..
10:52
<warren>
petre: no idea
10:52
<Jane_ux>
I tryed also by init.d with rc0.d, rc2.d, etc but it doesnt work
10:52
<petre>
system-config-display will run, but all the text that normally appears is either not there or just some flat lines
10:52
<InfraRed`>
i have a better idea Jane_ux
10:53
<Jane_ux>
ok tell me
10:53
<InfraRed`>
Did u look at system > administration > authorizations
10:53
<petre>

10:54
<Jane_ux>
ooopsss
10:54
yes i know
10:54
but i dont want lock down, i want to replace the /home folder as i said
10:55
<InfraRed`>
generally if u have the files backed up, just copying them to the home directory would work
10:56
i think your problem is in deleting the home directory while gnome is running
10:56
<Jane_ux>
yes that is the problem
10:56
any solution?
10:56
<cyberorg>
Jane_ux, run userdel and useradd as a cron to run every night
10:57
put the stuff you want in new users home can be put in /etc/skel
10:57
<Jane_ux>
sorry cyberdog, not that way pls, i told u already the problem, do u know the solution!!
10:58
<InfraRed`>
Jane_ux, what u want to do is virtually contradictory
10:58
<Jane_ux>
lol
10:58
<InfraRed`>
think about it
10:59
u want to delete where a user holds all the files that define how his desktop should behave
10:59
while he is logged into it

<Jane_ux>
ok i asked how to execute a script in log in before gnome is executed???!!
11:00
<InfraRed`>
im not sure if users MUST have a home directory or not.... but im inclinde towards the fact that they do need one
11:00
<Jane_ux>
you confuse me
11:00
<InfraRed`>
gnome is exectued with gdm
11:00
but when u log into the user
11:00
<Jane_ux>
if u dont know the answer to a question, say so or dont replay pls
11:00
<InfraRed`>
when u log in with the user, doesnt that create some files that the session is logged in in his home directory
11:01
u need to delete it before he logs in actually
11:01
well apparently noone else is helping u
11:01
<Jane_ux>
infrared: i dont know if u av any idea about that, or u just telling random things
11:02
from the beggining I said

Jane_ux, im just trying to help as much as i can.
11:02petre has quit IRC
11:03
<InfraRed`>
Im sure theres a way to provide the functionality u want... either through locking the desktop or through some other way that doesnt involve deleting files that are in use.
11:03
<Jane_ux>
Anyone knows if LTSP in ubuntu execute init.d as normal, rc0.d, rc2.d, etc???
11:03
you dont help me, u confuse me :)
11:04
u just answer my questions with the same quenstion
11:04
<InfraRed`>
my suggestion is that you lock the desktop
11:04
as for deleting a home directory
11:05
i cant help you with it since it escapes my logic how it would be done in some simple automated way without difficulties for the end user.
11:06
<Jane_ux>
ok yes infrared, just say so from the beginning please, u dont know it
11:06
we have been wasting almost half an hour
11:06
<InfraRed`>
I did mention that, didnt i?
11:06
(i think i even explained it)
11:06
<Jane_ux>
shut up
11:06
go away
11:07
:(
11:07

Im sure theres someone who knows though, good luck finding them

why a script located in rc2.d is not executed when the thin client starts?? im using Ubuntu and LTSP
11:14epoxy has joined #ltsp
11:15
<InfraRed`>
wild guess would be permissions.
11:18
I think i have a solution for u
11:18
usermod /d
11:18
usermod -d
11:19
u should be able to login and on login run that script through system preferences sessions
11:19
except, before u try and delete and copy
11:19
<Jane_ux>
go away
11:19
<InfraRed`>
change user directory to some new directory
11:19
then delete the old /home/user
11:19
copy what u need to copy
11:20
then do usermod -d <restored directory>

LTSP use the same start process as Ubuntu with rc0.d, rc1.d, etc?????
11:37
<InfraRed`>
probablz
11:40
<vagrantc>
Jane_ux: do you mean the server or the thin-client? the server uses the same process. the thin-client uses the same process, although some specific init scripts are disabled by default.

<Jane_ux>
then, why the client doesnt execute my script in rc0.d or rc2.d??
11:45
the script run ok, permisions ok, image updated ok
11:48
<InfraRed`>
client!=
11:48
client just recieves data from the server, it doesnt do anything id imagine
11:49
it just boots the OS from the server
11:49
isnt that /the/ essence of terminal computing?
11:49
<Jane_ux>
and it execute init.d!!!!
11:49

11:50
<InfraRed`>
lets see
11:51
<Jane_ux>
point number 12
11:51
<Nubae>
Jane_ux: still same problem?
11:51
<Jane_ux>
i guess, yes
11:51
The init program will read the /etc/event.d directory and begin setting up the thin client environment. From there, upstart will begin reading the startup commands in /etc/rcS.d.
11:52
<InfraRed`>
u need to edit the init.d stuff in the image that it loads as far as i understand it
11:53
and even then, u will have to hard reboot the pc to have it executed.... if it will even allow this remote delition
11:55
erm... no sorrz, my bad
11:55
seems like it needs to be in the servers init.d...
11:56
no idea what and where u are doing something and why it doesnt work, maybe someone else can help, im out of ideas
12:03
<vagrantc>
Jane_ux: what is your script attempting to do?

vagrantc: i want to restore the home folder when the user logoin
12:08
or logout, i thinks is even easier..
12:09
how can i execute a script when the client-terminal logout??
12:09
<vagrantc>
could do it with an ldm rc.d hook
12:09Nubae has quit IRC
12:09
<Jane_ux>
how can i do that??
12:09
in gdm I know, but in ldm not idea
12:10
vagrantc: u mean by placing the script in rc6.d???
12:11
<vagrantc>
Jane_ux: /usr/share/ldm/rc.d/SNN-some-script on the client
12:11
<Nuba1>
problem is he's trying to restore a /home folder when the user is logging in
12:12
<Jane_ux>
ok vagrant i ll try that thanks
12:12
<Nuba1>
home is already mounted by then
12:12
<vagrantc>
Jane_ux: look at /opt/ltsp/i386/usr/share/ldm/rc.d/S10-delayed-mounter
12:13
Jane_ux: and then i'd have a server-side script
12:13
<Jane_ux>
ok
12:14
<vagrantc>
Jane_ux: so /usr/share/ldm/rc.d/SNN-some-script: ssh -S ${LDM_SOCKET} server "/usr/local/bin/some-reset-homdir-script"
12:14
where /usr/local/bin/some-reset-homedir-script does the work.
12:14
<Jane_ux>
okok
12:16
the script is simple, just restore the user home folder, #rm -fR /home/user #tar xvfz /home/user.tar.gz
12:16
so i place it in  /usr/share/ldm/rc.d/ isnt it???
12:17
and the line ssh -S ${LDM_SOCKET} server "/usr/local/bin/some-reset-homdir-script"
12:17
where i have to add it??
12:22
vagrantc: thanks very much :), this is in login time, do you know how to do it in logout????

12:57
<Jane_ux>
vagrantc: why in logout doesnt work???
13:00Grantbow has joined #ltsp
13:02
<vagrantc>
Jane_ux: because the ssh tunnel is destroyed when you log out
13:03
<Jane_ux>
but just before the ssh tunnel is destroyed???
13:03
is there anyway to run an excript in logout with ldm?

15:58
or just add quiet to the boot arguments

depends on how fancy you want it
15:59

15:59
<vagrantc_>
|Ryan52: ah, correct ...
16:00
epoxy|w3rk: you'll have to run ltsp-update-kernels after installing that stuff ... and you'll need to add a configuration file so your somewhere to set BOOTPROMPT_OPTS
