IRC chat logs for #ltsp on irc.libera.chat (webchat)
Channel log from 20 March 2009 (all times are UTC)
| 00:00 | <vagrantc> cyberorg: either "icewm" or "/usr/bin/icewm"
| |
| 00:00 | <cyberorg> -s does not like anything other than names of the session, no path
| |
| 00:00 | <vagrantc> ok, so we could get the basename ...
| |
| 00:01 | <cyberorg> we'll try and work on that and send another patch :)
| |
| 00:03 | about sound, would something like this be acceptable?
| |
| 00:03 | mkdir ~/.ltspvar && mount -t tmpfs tmpfs ~/.ltspvar/ && echo
| |
| 00:03 | "PULSE_SERVER=xx.xx.xx.xx" > /.ltspvar/ltspsound
| |
| 00:04 | Nubae1 has joined #ltsp | |
| 00:04 | <vagrantc> cyberorg: the problem is mucking with the user's home directory...
| |
| 00:04 | <cyberorg> we can delete and unmount tmpfs immediately after the variable is read
| |
| 00:04 | Nubae has quit IRC | |
| 00:05 | <vagrantc> cyberorg: putting it in tmpfs doesn't really gain anything
| |
| 00:06 | <cyberorg> hmm, i am out of ideas then, any other suggestion?
| |
| 00:07 | <vagrantc> cyberorg: "-s shell" doesn't give any way to pass arguments?
| |
| 00:08 | <cyberorg> vagrantc, no
| |
| 00:08 | just name of the session
| |
| 00:09 | <vagrantc> so, the options are either writing files in the user's home directory, or patching xrdp...
| |
| 00:10 | and xrdp developers weren't really amenable to much in the way of patches?
| |
| 00:15 | cyberorg: removing it immediately after login helps ...
| |
| 00:15 | then you'd only have the unusual case of a partially sucessful login ...
| |
| 00:16 | with the auto-resume feature, if multiple thin clients log in as the same user, do they get a connection to the same session on all desktops?
| |
| 00:19 | <cyberorg> never tested multiple login by same user
| |
| 00:20 | there is a xrdp-sesman, will test what happens
| |
| 00:22 | <vagrantc> the resumed sessions will also be really weird with sound, if you set the PULSE_SERVER from one session, and then log into a resumed session from a different thin client, i don't think you can change the value of PULSE_SERVER to point to the new thin client
| |
| 00:22 | <cyberorg> it allows multiple login so resume would have wrong PA variable
| |
| 00:24 | multiple login behaves like vnc behaves on windows, display is same on all screens
| |
| 00:25 | <vagrantc> that's both really cool, and really frustrating...
| |
| 00:25 | <cyberorg> i guess best would be to let user select the TC PA via padevchooser?
| |
| 00:26 | that would be manual process and they will have to remember IP of the client when they log in
| |
| 00:26 | <vagrantc> ouch
| |
| 00:27 | cyberorg: i'd like for this nomad thing to somehow be selectable by the user ... but that would require a lot more patching...
| |
| 00:28 | <cyberorg> vagrantc, we can have three checkboxes on ldm screen one for LDM_NOMAD, LDM_DIRECTX and normal with encryption
| |
| 00:29 | or somewhere in preference menu
| |
| 00:29 | <vagrantc> it's been a while, but i remember it being tricky to do for LDM_DIRECTX, possibly having to do with Xauthority files or something
| |
| 00:30 | * cyberorg is lost with sound handling :( | |
| 00:34 | <vagrantc> the sound handling seems pretty tricky.
| |
| 00:34 | <cyberorg> it would break on session resume from another client no matter what we come up with
| |
| 00:35 | <vagrantc> pretty much.

| 05:21 | <valent1> hello
| |
| 05:28 | how to setup LTSP for old clients? is there a distribution setup for old clients - P1 with 64MB of ram... ?
| |
| 05:41 | what is RAM used in thin clients?
| |
| 05:42 | by LTSP documentation it says that clients need 128-258MB of ram
| |
| 05:43 | I thought that some much lover amount of memory was needed because server is actually starting applications and server's memory gets used...

| 09:39 | <wigwam> hi
| |
| 09:39 | i use ltsp with rdesktop to connect to windows terminal server
| |
| 09:41 | makghosh has joined #ltsp | |
| 09:41 | <wigwam> but at random times, as user switches the keyboard using alt+shift shortcut, alt act as still pressed (every key pressed after is processed as alt+<key> shortcut)
| |
| 09:41 | any ideas please?
| |
| 09:42 | <Gadi> what keymap?
| |
| 09:46 | @help
| |
| 09:46 | @locate
| |
| 09:46 | hmm
| |
| 09:46 | that bot is not up
| |
| 09:46 | :)
| |
| 09:46 | <wigwam> Gadi: XKBMAP="us"
| |
| 09:47 | <Gadi> wigwam: are you using us keyboard and us rdesktop keymap, as well?
| |
| 09:47 | <wigwam> no
| |
| 09:47 | <Gadi> what keyboard layout are you using?
| |
| 09:47 | <wigwam> i have to use czech keymap in windows
| |
| 09:48 | <Gadi> do you use the -k flag in rdesktop?
| |
| 09:48 | <wigwam> i tried to run rdesktop with -k none switch and this problem was fixed
| |
| 09:49 | but then win key and some shortcuts didn't work
| |
| 09:49 | <vagrantc> Gadi: i thought the bot used ! .. or are you trying to talk to a different bot?
| |
| 09:49 | <Gadi> which -k flag do you use normally?
| |
| 09:49 | vagrantc: nubae had another one
| |
| 09:49 | <wigwam> Gadi: tried to use -k gb (win key works)
| |
| 09:50 | or -k cs2 (where cs2 is our company built keymap for rdesktop)
| |
| 09:50 | with both this alt problem appears
| |
| 09:51 | <Gadi> do they both have "include common" ?
| |
| 09:51 | <wigwam> yes
| |
| 09:52 | <Gadi> yeah, I had found an rdesktop keymap bug with respect to caps lock
| |
| 09:53 | which I fixed by editing the common keymap
| |
| 09:53 | perhaps it is similar?
| |
| 09:53 | have you searched for rdesktop bug?
| |
| 09:55 | <wigwam> no
| |
| 09:55 | now i tried and i found some interestingly similar problem, thx
| |
| 09:59 | makghosh has quit IRC | |
| 10:01 | <Gadi> wigwam: great! let us know what you find

| 10:16 | <wigwam> Gadi: yeah, xmodmap -e "keysym Alt_L = Alt_L" works
| |
| 10:17 | <Gadi> weird
| |
| 10:17 | <wigwam> but i don't know where to write this command to make the change permanent, don't you know?
| |
| 10:17 | <Gadi> I wonder if you could fix it in an rdesktop keymap, as well
| |
| 10:17 | <wigwam> /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc doesn't work
| |
| 10:17 | <Gadi> are you running rdesktop from the server after you login through ldm?
| |
| 10:18 | <wigwam> no, i use rdesktop screen script
| |
| 10:18 | <Gadi> ah, so add it to the screen script
| |
| 10:18 | <wigwam> k, thx
| |
| 10:19 | * Gadi wishes he knew if this was an rdesktop bug or an X11 bug | |
| 10:20 | <Gadi> also, wigwam, what version of rdesktop are you using?
| |
| 10:20 | <wigwam> btw. i wrote very simple script called useroption which shows ascii menu and reads option from keyboard... and call screen script selected by user
| |
| 10:20 | should i send it somewhere? it's quite stupid, but maybe useful for somebody
| |
| 10:20 | <Gadi> we love stupid scripts
| |
| 10:20 | :)
| |
| 10:21 | I guess you can send it to the ltsp-devel mailing list
| |
| 10:21 | <wigwam> Gadi: 1.5.0 .. tried to upgrade to 1.6.0 but problem doesn't vanished, so i downgraded back to ubuntu latest
| |
| 10:22 | <Gadi> ubuntu's latest isnt 1.6?
| |
| 10:36 | <wigwam> no
| |
| 10:37 | or i don't have latest ubuntu version :) i'm a little bit lost in ubuntu versions + debian repositories
| |
| 10:37 | <Gadi> wigwam: from /usr/share/rdesktop/modifiers:
| |
| 10:37 | # Translate Meta, Super and Hyper to Windows keys.
| |
| 10:37 | # This is hardcoded. See documentation for details.
| |
| 10:37 | it seems that upon release, it sends Meta rather than Alt
| |
| 10:38 | and the Windows scancode for meta seems to be hardcoded
| |
| 10:38 | so, that must be the source of the problem
| |
| 10:38 | johnny has joined #ltsp | |
| 10:38 | <Gadi> your fix fixes it by having X send Alt instead of Meta upon release
| |
| 10:39 | which must be something that is done in the ubuntu keymap by default

| |
| 11:15 | <CAN-o-SPAM> Ubuntu 8.10? What was the problem?
| |
| 11:16 | <SDuensin> "netcat -z 127.0.0.1 7000" waits damn near forever.
| |
| 11:16 | And it does it 5 times on different ports.
| |
| 11:17 | The intent it to ensure that the port isn't already in use. If it *is* in use, netcat returns immediately.
| |
| 11:17 | So I tossed a "-w 1" in there.

| |
| 12:45 | <SDuensin> hehe
| |
| 12:45 | I got it to work with LTSP clients. Wish I remember how.
| |
| 12:46 | I wrote it down somewhere. :-)
| |
| 12:46 | <NeonLicht> SDuensin, if you happen to find it, gould you care to share that info? :-)
| |
| 12:46 | <SDuensin> I think I'm going to have to roll some code for the FreeNX part.
| |
| 12:46 | Lemme dig real fast.
| |
| 12:46 | I'm on Ubuntu, so you may have to translate.

| 12:47 | <maginot> hi
| |
| 12:47 | alkisg has joined #ltsp | |
| 12:49 | <maginot> If Im able to boot my client using a floppy with etherboot r8169 image, and even the client bios having pxe support Im not able to boot without the floppy (But shows the message that his trying to get a dhcp offer and the server shows a dhcp offer but seen the client dont accept/responde) so where is the problem? Is the Client NIC Card/BIOS is the server r8169 module or is the dhcp server?
| |
| 12:51 | <SDuensin> NeonLicht - Here's the voodoo: http://jaeger.pastebin.com/m4fef60b6
| |
| 12:51 | <vagrantc> maginot: most likely the PXE implementation on the client
| |
| 12:51 | maginot: possibly issues with the switch
| |
| 12:51 | <SDuensin> NeonLicht - Do that as root or sudo each line.
| |
| 12:52 | <NeonLicht> athanks a lot, SDuensin, let see if it works on Debian :-)
| |
| 12:52 | <SDuensin> NeonLicht - If I remember right, the problem was the avahi-daemon not running on the clients.
| |
| 12:52 | <NeonLicht> I see
| |
| 12:52 | SDuensin, what do you install joe for? XDDDD
| |
| 12:53 | <SDuensin> Was that in my paste? :-)
| |
| 12:53 | I install joe everywhere. :-D
| |
| 12:53 | <NeonLicht> yup!
| |
| 12:53 | haha
| |
| 12:53 | I do the same with Vim XDD
| |
| 12:53 | <SDuensin> Surprised you also didn't get a paste of "mc" and "screen" as well. :-)
| |
| 12:53 | <maginot> vagrantc, well, Im testing in a closed enviorement so cant be the switch. The client has a onboard RTL8111/8168B and seens to use the r8169 driver. And it ask for a dhcp offer, I can see the request and the server answer at /var/log/daemon.log but the client stays in the waiting dhcp offers screen and dont boot.
| |
| 12:53 | <NeonLicht> there was a time I used to install joe everywhere, until I started using Vim, haha
| |
| 12:54 | leio has quit IRC | |
| 12:54 | <SDuensin> I'm old school from the Borland "Turbo" days. Still got all the WordStar keys in my head.
| |
| 12:54 | <NeonLicht> the first thing I do after installation is aptitude install vim screen unclutter ion3, myself, hahaha
| |
| 12:54 | <vagrantc> maginot: i don't see how you can rule out the switch just because it's a closed network.
| |
| 12:55 | maginot: when troubleshooting, always think of ways to reduce your variables.
| |
| 12:55 | <maginot> vagrantc, using a etherboot .dsk image for the r8169 nic I can boot normaly, so I started to think if could not be some problem/configuration in the server
| |
| 12:55 | leio has joined #ltsp | |
| 12:55 | <maginot> vagrantc, well, I can tell that is not the switch because we have used 4 different so far
| |
| 12:55 | <vagrantc> maginot: in many cases etherboot is more reliable than on-board PXE implementations. that's no surprise.
| |
| 12:56 | <maginot> vagrantc, but with etherboot im stuck in the floppy/disk incovinient
| |
| 12:56 | <vagrantc> maginot: i just recently found an issue with spanningtree enabled on two chained switches. caused all sorts of grief.
| |
| 12:56 | maginot: i understand...
| |
| 12:56 | <SDuensin> Hey, that ion3 is cool. Never seen that one before. :-)
| |
| 12:57 | <NeonLicht> SDuensin, sure, it is, that's why I use it :-)
| |
| 12:57 | <vagrantc> maginot: i spent months trying to figure out configuration differences and it turned out to be numerous switches all with the same options enabled.
| |
| 12:58 | <maginot> vagrantc, well, the switch we're using are 10/100 and the server nic and client nic (r8169) are both gigabit, you think this can be a switch problem?
| |
| 12:58 | <NeonLicht> SDuensin, I remove the frame bars, and have a black background with a few frames running xterm with ssh sessions to different servers, and then run screen on them... I diferenciate among frams because I use different font color for different servers XD
| |
| 12:58 | <vagrantc> maginot: could ... try plugging a cable between the client and server directly ... see if it makes a difference.
| |
| 12:58 | <SDuensin> Oh, NeonLicht - forgot a step. In lts.conf, add: START_ITALC = True
| |
| 12:58 | <maginot> if I use a crosscable and connect then directly so we can see if is realy a switch problem
| |
| 12:59 | *they
| |
| 12:59 | <vagrantc> maginot: shouldn't need a crossover if either is gigabit ... gigabit does auto-sense
| |
| 12:59 | <NeonLicht> SDuensin, that I already had done :-)
| |
| 13:00 | <maginot> vagrantc, didnt know that ... well, I will test right now
| |
| 13:00 | <vagrantc> maginot: also, check what version of the PXE client is ... might be some way to upgrade or downgrade it to a working version
| |
| 13:00 | <NeonLicht> SDuensin, well, the first problem comes: there is no /etc/ital/keys subdir :/
| |
| 13:01 | <maginot> vagrantc, with a bios/firmware update I suppose
| |
| 13:01 | <SDuensin> On the server or the chroot?
| |
| 13:01 | <alkisg> maginot: also, see what dhcp options the client asks for - and if the server doesn't provide them, add them to dhcpd.conf
| |
| 13:01 | <NeonLicht> SDuensin, on neither of them
| |
| 13:02 | <SDuensin> And you installed the italc-master package on the server?
| |
| 13:02 | <NeonLicht> sure, your instructions told me so :-)
| |
| 13:03 | in fact, SDuensin, the /etc/italk/ directory does exists, but it is empty
| |
| 13:03 | <SDuensin> I reread my script/notes. That's all I got. :-/
| |
| 13:04 | Maybe you have to run it first on Debian or something?
| |
| 13:04 | <NeonLicht> I see, thanks anyway

| 13:06 | warren: same problem with TC5, or no?
| |
| 13:06 | <alkisg> NeonLicht: If I remember correctly, the command to create the keys is: ica -createkeypair -role teacher
| |
| 13:06 | <warren> CAN-o-SPAM: it will become available in a bios update?
| |
| 13:06 | CAN-o-SPAM: no, TC5 is fine in that regard
| |
| 13:07 | <NeonLicht> alkisg: as root, I suppose...
| |
| 13:07 | <alkisg> Yes
| |
| 13:07 | <NeonLicht> creating new key-pair ... ...done, saved key-pair in
| |
| 13:07 | <SDuensin> alkisg - guess the Ubuntu package does that for you. I never had to.
| |
| 13:08 | <maginot> when I receive the TFTP message what means?
| |
| 13:08 | <NeonLicht> creating new key-pair ... ...done, saved key-pair in -role and teacher (seems strange, doesn't it?)
| |
| 13:08 | <alkisg> SDuensin: yes - and also the windows installer - never tried on another OS/distro :)
| |
| 13:08 | NeonLicht: try without the -role teacher
| |
| 13:09 | <NeonLicht> alkisg: and then? am I supposed to placce those files on //etc/italcc/keys?
| |
| 13:09 | <alkisg> NeonLicht: where did it put the keys? It should report the directory...
| |
| 13:10 | <NeonLicht> alkisg: . (mmy home dir)
| |
| 13:10 | alkisg, I know where they are, I need to know where they are supposed to go :-)
| |
| 13:10 | <alkisg> Bah... then try specifying the directory as part of the ica command line
| |
| 13:10 | <NeonLicht> ok, man ica, then XDDD
| |
| 13:11 | <alkisg> Yup :)
| |
| 13:11 | /etc/italc/keys/private/<role>/key
| |
| 13:11 | <SDuensin> iTALC is cool, but man, what a pain.
| |
| 13:12 | <NeonLicht> is it cool, really?? never saw it workinng yet :-)
| |
| 13:12 | <SDuensin> hehee
| |
| 13:12 | Yea, it's nice. :-)
| |
| 13:13 | <NeonLicht> updating the image again (after having moved the key files into /etc/italc/keys/ ---man page did not help at all)
| |
| 13:15 | now, in case it works, I'd need to know if there is a way to run iTalc other than a Gnome applet (I won't run Gnome just for that :-)
| |
| 13:15 | <SDuensin> So close. Dumb ica-launcher keeps handing out the same port numbers for non-LTSP connections.
| |
| 13:16 | NeonLicht - Go crazy! Run the Windows one in Wine. :-P
| |
| 13:16 | <NeonLicht> hahahaha
| |
| 13:17 | the only wine I use comes on glass bottles, most of the time either from Rioja or from Rivera del Duero XDD
| |
| 13:19 | <kaeles> silly question, I was just wondering if when using ltsp, the xserver is actually run on the server itself and the X "data" is forwarded to the clients, or do the clients run their own copy of the xserver, wondering cause I'm using mythbuntu, and having some issues with ati drivers, but I'm using the diskless version which uses ltsp, and IIRC I had issues trying to pxe boot machiens and use custom xorg settings before.
| |
| 13:20 | <NeonLicht> Xserver runs on the thin clients, kaeles, the X server *always* run where you work at
| |
| 13:21 | <SDuensin> X11 uses the terms "server" and "client" backwards from what most people think.
| |
| 13:21 | <NeonLicht> | |
| 13:21 | <kaeles> I thought thats how it was , I was just double checking, must be something else thats funky then :|
| |
| 13:23 | thats what I get for being cheap and having old machines with old ati cards :P
| |
| 13:23 | <NeonLicht> ok, I run italc from the command line now and I get an error msg telling me that ica doesn't seem to be running on the server :-(
| |
| 13:23 | man, I will never be able to understand the iTalc thing XDD
| |
| 13:24 | <ltsppbot> "alkisg" pasted "italc ubuntu postinst script" (41 lines) at http://pastebot.ltsp.org/288
| |
| 13:24 | <alkisg> NeonLicht: see the commands from the ubuntu installation script ^^^
| |
| 13:25 | What are you trying to do? Run italc normally, or in the chroot?
| |
| 13:25 | <SDuensin> What I gave him was for chroot.
| |
| 13:25 | <NeonLicht> alkisg: "normally"
| |
| 13:26 | <alkisg> Then why did you say you were updating the image?
| |
| 13:26 | <NeonLicht> am I supposed to run it from the chroot?
| |
| 13:26 | <alkisg> Both methods are valid; each has its advantages
| |
| 13:26 | <NeonLicht> alkisg: because SDuensin instruction told to update the chroot, of course
| |
| 13:26 | alkisg: which both methods?
| |
| 13:27 | <alkisg> OK, then you're trying to install it to the chroot...
| |
| 13:27 | <NeonLicht> alkisg: I try to get it running
| |
| 13:27 | etyack has joined #ltsp | |
| 13:27 | <NeonLicht> alkisg, I've just followed the instructions I've been given to follow, since I cannot find any documentation to read myself
| |
| 13:28 | <alkisg> NeonLicht: some theory here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/iTalc - I've never installed on debian, I don't know if there are any instructions specifically for debian.
| |
| 13:29 | <NeonLicht> alkisg, thanks, I read that, but it will not work for Debian
| |
| 13:29 | <alkisg> But you may read about the advantages of the 2 installation methods
| |
| 13:31 | hanthana has joined #ltsp | |
| 13:39 | <alkisg> NeonLicht: which debian/italc version?
| |
| 13:41 | <NeonLicht> alkisg, 5.0 (aka Lenny) / 1:1.0.9~rc3-1
| |
| 13:42 | <alkisg> NeonLicht: ok, let me try to install it in a standalone debian (non ltsp) I have here...
| |
| 13:42 | <NeonLicht> thank you, alkisg :-)
| |
| 13:45 | <alkisg> OK, /var/lib/dpkg/info/italc-*.postinst is empty - so everything has to be done manually :(
| |
| 13:47 | <NeonLicht> alkisg, don't worry, then, it's not that important for me to run iTalc, really, I just have thought to give it another try today since there were people here who had succedded installing it
| |
| 13:47 | <alkisg> ica -role teacher -createkeypair => puts it in the correct place
| |
| 13:47 | <NeonLicht> I see
| |
| 13:47 | <alkisg> NeonLicht: no problem, it's not that hard - I'm just copying the ubuntu postinst commands
| |
| 13:53 | evilx has quit IRC | |
| 13:55 | <alkisg> NeonLicht: ok, I got it
| |
| 13:56 | tarbo has quit IRC | |

| 14:12 | <NeonLicht> thank you, alkisg, am I supposed to do the "ubuntu client" side on the Debian chroot?
| |
| 14:13 | <alkisg> yes, and also put the "ica" command in some init script to be ran automatically when the clients boot up
| |
| 14:14 | cliebow has quit IRC | |
| 14:15 | <alkisg> Then to see the interface you just run italc - it run fine in kubuntu without gnome.
| |
| 14:15 | **kde, not kubuntu :)
| |
| 14:16 | <NeonLicht> it has run here also :-)
| |
| 14:16 | I suppossed I have to rebuild the client image again
| |
| 14:17 | then I'll go to the classroom and boot a client
| |
| 14:22 | <maginot> vagrantc, okay, I connected directy like suggested and the login screen now show up
| |
| 14:23 | vagrantc, its not making the login, stays authenticating for a long time says the server not reponde and is restarting
| |
| 14:23 | I will try again
| |
| 14:23 | <vagrantc> maginot: but PXE worked fine?
| |
| 14:24 | <maginot> vagrantc, second time now and booted without problems
| |
| 14:25 | vagrantc, but like I said, when I put the user and password it stays logging for a long time and give up say "no response from server" and restart... now only black screen and mouse pointer
| |
| 14:26 | ... and im using Ubuntu 8.10
| |
| 14:26 | <vagrantc> maginot: can you log into the server with ssh from another machine with the same username and password? or evern log into the server from itself?
| |
| 14:27 | <maginot> vagrantc, yeah, im going to create a new user now and test this user
| |
| 14:31 | vagrantc, well, other user the same problem....
| |
| 14:31 | looks like its loosing the connection with the server
| |
| 14:32 | <alkisg> maginot: the most common cause for this problem is if you changed your server ip - try: sudo ltsp-update-sshkeys and then: sudo ltsp-update-image
| |
| 14:33 | <maginot> okay will try that
| |
| 14:33 | <vagrantc> alkisg: i think that's a different problem ... should get a workstation is not authorized error
| |
| 14:33 | <alkisg> vagrantc: I think in ubuntu 8.10 and later on, all problems show the same message!
| |
| 14:34 | <vagrantc> oh dear.
| |
| 14:34 | <alkisg> Even a wrong password shows the same message ...
| |
| 14:35 | <vagrantc> bugs filed?
| |
| 14:35 | <alkisg> Nah - sorry :( Will try to find some time to actually verify this before and file a bug afterwards :)
| |
| 14:37 | <maginot> okay dudes, after ltp-update-sshkeys and ltsp-update-image is now working fine, I let you know any further problem

| |
| 15:23 | i am wondering if i should set up the networking on this debian box using ip forwarding, or a bridge device
| |
| 15:36 | <vagrantc> epsas: ?
| |
| 15:36 | <epsas> for the gateway
| |
| 15:36 | <vagrantc> epsas: two nics?
| |
| 15:36 | <epsas> yeah
| |
| 15:36 | ubuntu uses ip forwarding, and fedora uses bridging
| |
| 15:36 | <vagrantc> shouldn't need ip forwarding or bridging or any of that...
| |
| 15:37 | unless you need to run local apps
| |
| 15:37 | <epsas> well, how is the routing to the internet performed?
| |
| 15:37 | oh wait
| |
| 15:37 | <vagrantc> routing between thin client and internet is not needed for a tradition server/thin-client model
| |
| 15:37 | * epsas has a head full of brain farts today | |
| 15:38 | <vagrantc> the thin clients connect to the server, and the server connects to the intarwebs
