Yeah!!! Reporting that dnsmasq-2.48test9 works fine as a proxydhcp server, i.e. now I can have my cheap router (or windows server etc) acting as a dhcp server, and the ltsp-server only sending a fake dhcp offer with the boot-filename and next-server.
10:00
Tried with 4 pxe-enabled NICs and with gpxe, all worked fine.
10:02
No more dhcpd.conf for me :)

stgraber: hey, you around?
12:47
<tadeu_>
guys, i'm setting up a LTS but i already have a DHCP server in my network, can i set the root-path and filename in this server ? pointing to my LTS
12:47
<Nubae>
yes, just one dhcp server needed per network
12:47
<oifzhozh>
+1 :p
12:48
<tadeu_>
so i don't need a DHCP server in my LST, right ?
12:48
<oifzhozh>
But your DHCP must be recent
12:48
<Nubae>
nope, doing that will make everything fail, its important to have just one
12:48
<tadeu_>
good
12:49
and how i configure my DHCP to indicate my LTS ?
12:49
about root-path and filename

<ZRQH>
It's not dedicated to ltsp i see
13:54
<alkisg>
No, but it's quite well integrated with ltsp in ubuntu. In debian it requires a little manual handling while installing... key etc.

Are LTSP terminals generally netbooted?
14:21litlebuda has quit IRC
14:25
<alkisg>
stgraber: jaunty-recently updated: /etc/resolv.conf in clients has no mode bits set: ---------- 1 root root 44 2009-04-07 22:07 /etc/resolv.conf
14:26
So localapps (running as a normal user - e.g. vlc) cannot read the file
14:27
That happens whether SEARCH_DOMAIN/DNS_SERVER are set in lts.conf or not.

<vagrantc>
ball: pretty much exclusively.
14:35
<ball>
vagrantc: Oh good. They run without swap?
14:36
<vagrantc>
ball: with enough ram. these days, at least 128MB of ram is probably what you want to run without swap.
14:37
<ball>
Oh good, that's easily achievable here.
14:37
Is NFS required?
14:37
<Lumiere>
yes
14:37
unless they really moved away from it for the root fs
14:37
<vagrantc>
ball: on debian, default is NFS, ubuntu defaults to using NBD
14:38
not sure on other distros
14:40
<ball>
Hmm... okay.

vagrantc: I can mount it by hand, when plugged into the server. However, gnome seems to have a problem with it too (while it needs to be mentioned that I try to mount the usb-drive-on-server from nautilus running on the thin-client)
15:24

Evening, has anyone managed to get dual displays working with ltsp5? Only thing I can find on google is a mention of a pdf from disklessworkstations that doesn't exist anymore.
15:26
<elias>
Memfis: never tried
15:26
<Memfis>
No one seams to have :)
15:26tadeu_ has quit IRC
15:27
<elias>
how can I make LOCALDEVs work for everybody, without the need to add people to the fuse group?
15:27
<Memfis>
whats wrong with adding people to the fuse group? We did.
15:28
<elias>
Memfis: I am not the one who creates new users and I would need to make sure people are added automatically at least, as the person adding users is non-technical.
15:29
<Memfis>
afaik users I've added since where added to fuse. I can check later for you tho.
15:29
<elias>
what about the plugdev group? is that still in use?
15:31Lns has joined #ltsp
15:32
<vagrantc>
elias: you can probably use libpam-group to add everybody to the fuse group
15:32alkisg has quit IRC
15:33
<vagrantc>
ltspfs uses the fuse group
15:33alkisg has joined #ltsp
15:34
<Memfis>
you might be right. Just checked a user I created earlier and I don't think they are in the fuse group. I cant test until one of the terminals is free.
15:34twinprism_ has joined #ltsp
15:35
<elias>
but users still need to be in that group, right?
15:36
<Memfis>
to use localdev afaik yes. (but I'll check later)
15:36
<alkisg>
elias: gnome users-admin keeps the default groups there: /etc/gnome-system-tools/users/profiles
15:36
<elias>
do you know, does the gnome user admin util user the adduser command? ergo does it respect the config files for adduser?
15:37
<Memfis>
dunno, I've always added users/groups by cli.
15:37
<elias>
alkisg: which groups do I need for audio and localdevs?
15:37
<Memfis>
audio for audio & fuse for localdevs. thats all I see in my setup (ltsp5 - XUbuntu Jaunty)
15:38
maybe pulse.
15:39
sorry, you wheren't asking me.
15:39
<elias>
Memfis: does not seem necessary, as nobody is in that group, but my sound is working
15:40
<alkisg>
I don't think users-admin respects the adduser defaults (adduser.conf). And I don't think adduser respects the useradd defaults (login.defs). But I'm new to linux, can't say for sure.
15:41
<elias>
alkisg: gnome does only seem to respect the config file you mentioned earlier
15:41
thank you for that
15:41
I have two admin groups in my setup here, don't know why
15:41twinprism has quit IRC
15:41
<elias>
can somebody with a clean install check the admin goups gid for me
15:41
in ubuntu that is
15:43
<ltsppbot>
"alkisg" pasted "jaunty /etc/gnome-system-tools/users/profiles" (27 lines) at http://pastebot.ltsp.org/299
15:43
<alkisg>
elias: ^^^
15:44
<elias>
alkisg: I have that, tnx
15:44
can you paste me a: grep admin /etc/group
15:45
<alkisg>
getent group admin: 117
15:45
I don't think that's standard, though...
15:45
<elias>
jaunty?
15:45
<alkisg>
yes
15:47
<elias>
have one 119, and one 114
15:47
should not matter anyways
15:47
is only for sudo, isn't it
15:47
<Memfis>
mines 120, but it was upgraded from 8.10
15:47
<elias>
and that does go by name not gid
15:49elias has quit IRC
15:54elias has joined #ltsp
15:54
<elias>
I am in the admin group, but the unlock button is not active in user-admin
15:57
<alkisg>
Some notes about these groups - but not all of them (ubuntu specific): https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/Specs/Intrepid/DevicePermissions
15:58
<Lns>
elias: you have 2 admin groups in /etc/group?
15:59
<elias>
Lns: yes, I suppose that happend, when I moved my users and groups from debian
15:59
no idea
15:59
<Lns>
elias: that's your issue most likely
15:59
get rid of the one you migrated from debian
16:01
<elias>
Lns: no idea which one it is
16:01
Lns: should not matter anyways
16:01
<Lns>
uhm, yes it does..?
16:02
<elias>
Lns: This system has a long migration history
16:02
<Lns>
elias: admin:x:115: for me (hardy install)
16:02
<elias>
Lns: why, no files belong to the admin group
16:02
<Lns>
elias: the admin group does more than file permissions
16:02
<elias>
Lns: admin group has a different gid for everybody
16:02
Lns: sudo
16:02
Lns: but only by name not gid
16:02
Lns: so it should not matter
16:03
<Lns>
elias: ok..if you say so. Duplicate groups causes major issues... i'll let you figure it out though ;)
16:04
<elias>
Lns: I don't see the gid actually stored anywhere. Do you?
16:04
Lns: Except for in the group file
16:05
<Lns>
elias: no offense but you need to think logically. Just get rid of the duplicate group, log out, log back in, make sure you're a part of the ubuntu created admin group, and try again.
16:06
elias: i've experienced this issue in the past via migrations.
16:07
<elias>
I'll try a reboot
16:07
<Lns>
what's that going to fix?

16:14
I renamed a group, but the system did not seem to care. It did still remember the group by its old name. Therefore I will reboot after change.

stgraber: was looking at http://usbmount.alioth.debian.org/
19:47
<stgraber>
dmarkey: what's wrong with latest ltspfs implementation ?
19:48
do you need something more than seeing your usb keys in windows as network share ?
19:48
(and cd-rom too)
19:48lucascoala has quit IRC
19:48
<stgraber>
(that function hasn't been really advertised though I admit)
19:49
<dmarkey>
stgraber: i dont know much about ltspfs, and can i put it into a debian chroot?
19:49
<stgraber>
not sure for Debian but it works with Ubuntu and I believe vagrantc uploaded a ltspfs similar to Ubuntu's
19:50
<dmarkey>
and how des it work, userspace daemon that watched for udev events?
19:50
does*
19:50
<stgraber>
basically you need to have both ltspfsd and ltspfs in the chroot, then add a rdesktop parameter to map /media to a network mountpoint in Windows
19:50
it uses the same magic as for regular Linux localdevs
19:50
that's udev and a few scripts
19:51
<dmarkey>
any vfat sync issues?
19:51
<stgraber>
shouldn't be (wasn't reported any yet)
19:51
<dmarkey>
and will the mount dissapear as soon as the usb key is pulled?
19:52
<stgraber>
yes

19:53
<stgraber>
dpkg -l | grep ltspfs
19:53
<dmarkey>
ltspfsd 0.5.9-1
19:53
<stgraber>
ok so you'd need ltspfs too
19:54
<dmarkey>
ltspfs ltspfsd ltspfs_mount ltspfsmounter ltspfs_umount ltsp-genmenu ltsp-localappsd
19:54
what other amendments do i make to activate it?
19:57
<stgraber>
you should be good with that and something like: "-r disk:disk=/media/root/ -r sound:local -x l" as RDP_OPTIONS
19:58
<dmarkey>
why do i need both ltspfsd and ltspfs
19:58
<stgraber>
ltspfsd is the one doing the detection of your usb key, ltspfs is the one that's mounting it in /media/
19:58
<dmarkey>
and how does ltspfs know to mount the key?
19:59
<stgraber>
some xprop magic IIRC (we tend to like that way of communicating)
19:59
<dmarkey>
i dont see any udev entries
19:59
ok, i'll see if it works tomorrow
20:01

vagrantc: "question" is if you have a question about ltsp, please go ahead and ask it, and people will respond if they can. please also mention the linux distro and release you're using. :)

tracke_: please keep /msg-ing in the channel....
22:53
tracke_: it's rude and annoying to /msg
22:53
(without asking first)
22:54
tracke_: especially when I wasn't even talking to you in channel, it just doesn't make sense..
22:54
tracke_: no, I won't help you, because you continue to /msg me instead of reading what I'm writing here.

it's only got 32MB of ram, but looks like it'll take so-dimm or sdram
