Hi.
01:30
<alkisg>
Hi
01:39
<dkostousov>
How I can manualy logout user from server?
01:40
<alkisg>
Do you have italc installed? It has such a function.
02:01
<dkostousov>
Should I install italc on server?
02:01
Hm... Fedora have no package italc
02:05
<alkisg>
In Ubuntu all you have to do is install the italc-master package. Then you can see the client screen, log them out, execute commands on them etc.
02:06

02:06
<dkostousov>
hm...
02:08
<sep>
dkostousov, kill his processes. pkill -u might help you
02:10
<dkostousov>
thx
02:12
<alkisg>
Isn't that too brutal?
02:12
I.e. might mess with the filesystem?
02:15
<sep>
user processes does not access the filesystem directly. and regular kill (iow without -9) is more a "hay process. can you please quit now, pretty please) :)
02:15
the user will loose unsaved data ofcourse !
02:18
<alkisg>
And doesn't the order of killing the processes matter?
02:18
E.g. what happens if you kill the ssh process first?

I've looked through the documentation and cannot find mention of network scanners for ltsp... please help
04:32alkisg has quit IRC
04:32
<Appiah>
the documentation is being moved
04:33
try google cache or looking in the /usr/share/ltsp-docs?
04:34
<ftherese>
anything I can look at for the time being? I have already searched through the documentation here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ltsp/files/Docs-Admin-Guide/LTSPManual.pdf/download
04:34
I can't find any mention of scanners
04:34
<Appiah>
what are you trying to do?
04:34
scanner attached to thin client?
04:40
<ftherese>
network scanner

<cyberorg>
ftherese, that has nothing to do with ltsp, just follow instructions about network scanning, configure ltsp servers as client for scanner, all ltsp clients will be able to use that
05:18
<vicd>
i'v got 2 scanners working in my network
05:21
attached to clients

<[R]>
hey
14:16Kicer86 has joined #ltsp
14:18
<nicku>
hi
14:19
<[R]>
so i'm trying to get this working... and in the ubuntu init scripts it makes a call to 'ipconfig'
14:19
and it hangs and all i see in wireshark are a million dhcp requests and my server isn't doing anything with them
14:19mherweg has joined #ltsp
14:19
<[R]>
if i force the params to ipconfig then i can make it work... but i dont want to have to do that
14:19
is there somerthign configured wrong in my dhcp server?
14:22
<alkisg>
version?
14:22
(ubuntu version)
14:23
[R], also post your dhcpd.conf to pastebin:
14:23
!pastebot
14:23
<ltspbot>
alkisg: "pastebot" :: The LTSP pastebot is at http://ltsp.pastebin.com. Please paste all text longer than a line or two to the pastebot, as it helps to reduce traffic in the channel. Don't forget to paste the URL of the text here.
14:23
<[R]>
oh its ubuntu 9.10
14:23
and i'm actually using dnsmasq as my dhcp server
14:24
<alkisg>
Ah, then your dnsmasq.conf misses some entry. Can you post it to pastebin?
14:24
<[R]>
http://ltsp.pastebin.com/m49a9092
14:25
<alkisg>
See this for an example: cat /usr/share/doc/ltsp-server/examples/dhcpd-dnsmasq
14:26
Are you forcing ipconfig to be used? ubuntu 9.10 by default uses udhcpc...
14:26
<[R]>
in the init scripts
14:26
it runs ipconfig
14:26
right after it does the udhcp
14:26
which is a little wierd
14:26
i did check out that exmaple, and added everyhting from there i dindt have, but that didnt seem to fix it
14:27
<vagrantc>
typically, ipconfig is run from the initramfs, not from init scripts...
14:27
<alkisg>
How do you see that it runs ipconfig?
14:27
Can you post the exact messages?
14:28
<[R]>
i mean initramfs
14:29
well i was sticking echos and such in the initramfs code
14:29
but if i must... lemme get the message
14:30
<alkisg>
[R]: ok, if you tried putting echos, can you point me to the code where it calls ipconfig after udhcpc?
14:30
Because that shouldn't happen in *any* case...
14:31
<[R]>
hrm
14:31
well i'm actgually using hte mythbuntu stuff
14:31
maybe that has a bug in it then
14:31
<alkisg>
mythbuntu has a different initramfs than ubuntu?
14:31
<[R]>
for he mythbuntu diskless stuff
14:31
they have their own script that runs instead of the regular nfs one
14:32
i mena the regular nbd* one
14:32
<alkisg>
Ah, I don't know about that then, maybe there's some incompatibility between the two
14:32
<[R]>
i could probalby just use the normal ltsp scripts instead of the special mythbuntu ones
14:33
but if i'm looking at scripts/ltsp_nbd
14:33
<alkisg>
The ltsp initramfs also gets lts.conf, and some other ltsp-specific stuff
14:33
<[R]>
the first thing it does is call configure_networking
14:33
<alkisg>
How would you pass lts.conf with the mythbuntu initramfs?
14:33
<[R]>
mythbuntu doesnt use lts.conf
14:33
oh i see... in configure_networking if the interface is alreayd configured... it doesnt do the ipconfig call
14:34
<alkisg>
Erm.... so this isn't an ltsp setup? It's a mythbuntu thing?
14:34* alkisg has never used mythbuntu
14:34
<[R]>
well it uses the ltsp stuff
14:34
but i'm just gonna try a regular ltsp and see how it goes
14:34
another question though
14:34
my ROOTSERVER is being set to my dhcp server's ip
14:34
i can't figure out what i need to put in my dhcp config to make it put out the ip i want
14:34
is that part of the lts.conf?
14:35
<alkisg>
You can put nbdroot= as a kernel parameter
14:35
(that's in pxelinux.cfg/default)
14:35
<[R]>
yeah, tahts what i'm doing now
14:35
i want to avoid that if i can
14:35
<alkisg>
Can you paste that line from your pxelinux.cfg/default?
14:36
And, why would you want to avoid that?
14:36
<[R]>
because it should figure everyhting out automatically
14:36
without me telling it what to do
14:37
<alkisg>
You mean that you'd like to be able to put nbdroot in dhcpd.conf instead of pxelinux.cfg?
14:37
I don't see much difference there...
14:37
<[R]>
technically there isn't
14:37
maybe i'm just being stupid
14:37
lol
14:37
anyway, thanks for the info
14:37
i think i'm good
14:37
<alkisg>
I didn't see any code that would take a different ROOTSERVER from dhcpd.conf
14:38kas has quit IRC
14:38
<alkisg>
But what kind of option were you thinking to send from dhcpd.conf? A custom one?
14:38
<[R]>
well the dhcp server is setting ROOTSERVER from some value
14:38
is it always just its ip?
14:39
<alkisg>
Yes, it's the ip of the dhcp server
14:39
<[R]>
oh... ok
14:40
well, thanks
14:40
<alkisg>
np :)

How "cross-distro" is ConsoleKit? Would calling its `restart` d-bus method be cross-distro enough?

hi, how do I go about rebuilding the initrd image ?
16:40Egyptian[Home] has quit IRC
16:41
<sbalneav>
kaos01: initrd? or ltsp image?
16:42
<kaos01>
initrd which gets loaded from teh tftp server
16:43Egyptian[Home] has joined #ltsp
16:43
<kaos01>
as im having problems in the network side gettign a DHCP address, so i like to modify it
16:43
<sbalneav>
then use the initramfs-tools in the chroot
16:45
<kaos01>
its the initrd in the PXE process i think i need to modify, as my clients can DHCP, download image via tftp, but than the second DHCP never succeeeds
16:46
can i just expand initrd with cpio, make changes than re-assemble it with cpio ?
16:46
all i want to try is to place a sleep before dhcp happens
16:50
<sbalneav>
I'd use the tools.
