| 12:08 | <alkisg> alazyworkaholic: no, it's a "recommended" package, which means you can chose not to install it
| |
| 12:08 | Or you can install "ltsp-server" instead of "ltsp-server-standalone"
| |
| 12:09 | <alazyworkaholic> alkisg: thanks for the reply. My 'server' is my regular desktop. The client's a netbook. Following the (scant) information out there it seems that for that case I should be using the standalone version.
| |
| 12:10 | I managed to get ltsp working a few days ago on 10.10, but then the upgrade to 11.04 broke it. I've tried purging & reinstalling every pkg related to ltsp, removing /opt/ltsp but I won't work. The packages I've reinstalled are: openssh-server ltsp-server-standalone dhcp3-server. I did ltsp-build-client --arch i386 and ltsp-update-sshkeys
| |
| 12:10 | <alkisg> alazyworkaholic: how is it broken? specific error messages help
| |
| 12:10 | Also, if you have a home setup where the router is the dhcp server, you can install dnsmasq instead of dhcp3-server (proxydhcp)
| |
| 12:11 | <alazyworkaholic> I wish I had them. The client just doesn't connect at all. Times out & then starts its regular boot process
| |
| 12:12 | <alkisg> Do you have a chroot currently? /opt/ltsp/images/i386.img ?
| |
| 12:14 | <alazyworkaholic> I'm rebuilding the image now, but yes, I confirmed I did.
| |
| 12:15 | I think it's a networking/dhcp thing. The netbook isn't able to connect. (i think)
| |
| 12:16 | <alkisg> Can you describe your network setup?
| |
| 12:16 | How many nics, switches, routers, dhcp servers etc
| |
| 12:17 | <alazyworkaholic> Sure. It's a simple home setup. One dsl modem hooked into an el-cheapo 100 mbps router that has the desktop @ a static wired 192.168.1.100, & a wired connection to the netbook as well. Here's my /etc/ltsp/dhcp.conf http://pastebin.com/FKGEVu33
| |
| 12:18 | <alkisg> Do you have a dhcp server on your router?
| |
| 12:18 | <alazyworkaholic> yes.
| |
| 12:18 | <alkisg> You can't have 2 dhcp servers on the same subnet
| |
| 12:18 | Read about this, it's more suited to home setups: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/ProxyDHCP
| |
| 12:20 | <alazyworkaholic> If it matters, the first time it worked, I had turned of the router's dhcp server. Then I turned it back on, but it continued to work. However, after the upgrade, it didn't work with or without the router's dhcp server.
| |
| 12:22 | Should it work with just the router's dhcp server (I don't know how the netbook would know to get the kernel from the desktop) or do I have to configure the /etc/ltsp/dhcp.conf? If so, Does mine look correct?
| |
| 12:23 | <alkisg> If you decide to use a proxydhcp server, then you don't need a dhcpd.conf
| |
| 12:23 | You choices are (1) use a proxydhcp or (2) turn off the router dhcp server
| |
| 12:23 | or (3) use hackish methods :)
| |
| 12:23 | Pick one!
| |
| 12:24 | <alazyworkaholic> I'm worried about turning off the router's dhcp server, because then won't other devices that connect wirelessly (ipod, laptop, etc) no longer be able to get an ip address.
| |
| 12:24 | <alkisg> (or use 2 nics + another switch, if you have them handy)
| |
| 12:24 | I agree, I propose (1) for you
| |
| 12:24 | <alazyworkaholic> ok, if i use proxydhcp, should I remove dhcp3-server & delete the /etc/ltsp/dhcp.conf file?
| |
| 12:25 | <alkisg> Something like that. Just follow the instructions on the wiki, they'll tell you what to remove and how
| |
| 12:25 | <alazyworkaholic> ok, I'll work on that. Many thanks!
| |
| 12:26 | <alkisg> No problem. If you don't get it working, *don't* erase your chroot, we can just fix it.

| 12:46 | <alazyworkaholic> alkisg: if you're still there, what's the difference between ltsp-server & ltsp-server-standalone? I had read that since the server is my regular desktop (i.e. not headless) I should use standalone, but the wiki you sent me to is ltsp-server.
| |
| 12:48 | <alkisg> alazyworkaholic: ltsp-server-standalone contains dhcp3-server, which you don't need since you're using a dhcp server on your router
| |
| 12:48 | <alazyworkaholic> ok thanks!
| |
| 12:48 | <alkisg> Follow the wiki page, it's the one that suits your setup

| 13:12 | invoke-rc.d: initscript dnsmasq, action "start" failed.
| |
| 13:13 | <alkisg> alazyworkaholic: yes, it's a problem. Did you create the /etc/dnsmasq.d/ltsp.conf file as suggested in the wiki page?
| |
| 13:14 | <alazyworkaholic> no, but that 's the enxt step. I'll do that then reinstall. thanks.
| |
| 13:14 | <alkisg> reinstall what?
| |
| 13:14 | <alazyworkaholic> dnsmasq
| |
| 13:15 | <alkisg> Ah you mean restart?
| |
| 13:15 | sudo service dnsmasq restart
| |
| 13:15 | <alazyworkaholic> ok
| |
| 13:15 | <alkisg> That's the command you need, after creating the file
| |
| 13:19 | <alazyworkaholic> alkisg: I didn't see anything to change in the ltspconf. Then I ran the below & got
| |
| 13:19 | alan@Desktop:~$ sudo service dnsmasq restart
| |
| 13:19 | * Restarting DNS forwarder and DHCP server dnsmasq
| |
| 13:19 | dnsmasq: failed to bind DHCP server socket: Address already in use
| |
| 13:20 | <alkisg> You didn't uninstall the dhcp server then
| |
| 13:20 | Also, you need to change this line in dnsmasq ltsp.conf:
| |
| 13:20 | dhcp-range=10.160.31.10,proxy
| |
| 13:20 | Put your router IP there
| |
| 13:23 | <alazyworkaholic> Ok I changed it to dhcp-range=192.168.1.1,proxy but I did remove dhcp3-server. Should I also remove dhcp3-client & dhcp3-common?
| |
| 13:23 | <alkisg> No

| |
| 13:26 | <alkisg> And also go to system > settings > log viewer
| |
| 13:27 | <alazyworkaholic> same as before, just times out & boots normally.
| |
| 13:27 | <alkisg> Did you go to the log viewer? In daemon.log you'll see dnsmasq logs
| |
| 13:28 | Or just run: grep dnsmasq /var/log/daemon.log | tail -n 3
| |
| 13:29 | <alazyworkaholic> no output.
| |
| 13:29 | nothing in the log
| |
| 13:29 | <alkisg> Something's not right. OK, let's go again:
| |
| 13:29 | sudo service dnsmasq stop
| |
| 13:29 | sudo service dnsmasq start
| |
| 13:29 | Does it display warnings?
| |
| 13:30 | <alazyworkaholic> yes, it says stopping, then not running. when I start it it says address already in use
| |
| 13:31 | <alkisg> sudo service dnsmasq stop

| |
| 13:36 | should I try sudo killall dnsmasq & then restart the service?
| |
| 13:37 | <alkisg> alazyworkaholic: it seems that libvirt or something is telling dnsmasq to use your dhcp port
| |
| 13:37 | Are you currently using virtualization?
| |
| 13:37 | <alazyworkaholic> not currently, but I have virt-manager installed.
| |
| 13:37 | <alkisg> OK, temporarily, run: sudo killall dnsmasq
| |
| 13:37 | <alazyworkaholic> Don't use it much. Get rid of it?
| |
| 13:38 | <alkisg> See if that allows "sudo service dnsmasq start" to start without warnings
| |
| 13:38 | <alazyworkaholic> started without warnings!

| |
| 13:39 | oh, wait.
| |
| 13:39 | :(
| |
| 13:39 | but at least we have an error message

| 13:40 | Trying to lead: pxelinux.cfg/default
| |
| 13:40 | rror: failed to connect to NBD server 192.168.1.1:2000.
| |
| 13:41 | <alkisg> Is that your nbd server? Or that's your router?
| |
| 13:41 | I mean, is it your desktop pc?
| |
| 13:42 | <alazyworkaholic> 192.168.1.1 is the router's ip. The desktop's is 192.168.1.100
| |
| 13:42 | <alkisg> You didn't do the step with "IPAPPEND 3"
| |
| 13:42 | sudo gedit /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/pxelinux.cfg/default
| |
| 13:42 | and put "IPAPPEND 3" at a new line at the end of that file

| 13:54 | http://pastebin.com/u4qqsDyP
| |
| 13:55 | it's there, but the client now get to the ubuntu loading screen for a few seconds (purple with moving dots under the logo) then drops to initramfs
| |
| 14:02 | <alkisg> alazyworkaholic: on that initramfs, run: cat /proc/cmdline
| |
| 14:02 | Do you see a long "ip=xx:xx:xx:xx" parameter there?
| |
| 14:02 | Ah
| |
| 14:03 | You may want to try to remove "autoconf=dhcp"
| |
| 14:03 | It should be working with that, but maybe something broke in natty
| |
| 14:03 | <alazyworkaholic> ip=192.168.1.106:192.168.1.100:192.168.1.1:255.255.255.0 BOOTIF=01-00-1e-68-93-f9-ae
| |
| 14:04 | <alkisg> Try removing that "autoconf=dhcp" part
| |
| 14:05 | <alazyworkaholic> removed that, still the same.
| |
| 14:05 | do I have to update something, like ltsp-update-image?
| |
| 14:05 | <alkisg> No. That doesn't sound right. And the error is still that it tries to connect to your router for the nbd image?
| |
| 14:05 | I.e. still that one? (11:40:41 PM) alazyworkaholic: rror: failed to connect to NBD server 192.168.1.1:2000.
| |
| 14:07 | <alazyworkaholic> yeah, the same.
| |
| 14:07 | <alkisg> OK, something's broken in Natty
| |
| 14:07 | Now instead of nbdport=2000, try putting: nbdroot=192.168.1.100:2000
| |
| 14:08 | <alazyworkaholic> did that, nope. same
| |
| 14:09 | <alkisg> On the client, on the initramfs prompt, try: nbd-client 192.168.1.100 2000 /dev/nbd0
