<alkisg>
If the clients connect to the server by hostname, i.e. LDM_SERVER=server, then it doesn't matter if the server IP has changed.
06:28
So I wonder why we need an if-up.d script, an ssh-host-checker etc...
06:30
<elias_a>
alkisg: What if DNS is down?
06:31
<alkisg>
elias_a: the server name is put in the client's /etc/hosts on boot
06:31
So there's no DNS lookup involved
06:32
<elias_a>
alkisg: Server name = IP address or in text?
06:32
<alkisg>
In the client: $ grep server /etc/hosts
06:32
10.160.31.10 server
06:32
<elias_a>
OK - the IP.
06:33
<alkisg>
So if one uses ssh server, then there's no prompt to accept the changed IP, just a warning that the new IP gets automatically trusted, which doesn't harm
06:35
And if one uses different application servers, he could just put their names in /etc/hosts too
06:37
<elias_a>
This is _far_ beyond my experience... :(
06:38
<alkisg>
I'm just wondering if we could remove all those, to simplify it... and for NBD, ltsp-update-ssh-keys could be called from ltsp-update-image, avoiding the need for the sysadmin to ever run it
06:39
<elias_a>
alkisg: I guess asmok could comment on that.
06:39
I imagine he would love the idea.

06:41Steve_The_Pirate has joined IRC (Steve_The_Pirate!~Gary@ip-80-238-8-128.bskyb.com)
06:46* alkisg guesses he needs to ask stgraber whether there's need for ssh-hostchecker...
06:47
<vagrantc>
we'd have to changee ldm to use hostnames instead of IP addresses.
06:47
which, overall, i think is fine.
06:47
and easier to manage.
06:47* vagrantc disappears

hey guys!
18:46
looking for an opinion from some of the gang here if you guys have a moment
18:47
Let's say I have a 10.04 LTSP server running now and it's having some issues that may or may not be related to the server itself (long, long story). In the event a reinstall is needed, would it be safe to reinstall with 12.04 at this point, or would it be best to stick with 10.04?
18:48
I just wasn't sure what kind of LTSP development was done with 12.04, because I certainly don't want to jump into anything, but I AM running 12.04 on my personal systems and even a lab at work and it runs fabulous.
18:49
<alkisg>
LTSP in 12.04 should be stable enough
18:49
<roasted>
only question is, what do clients use by default in 12.04? Unity?
18:49
I haven't given much thought to that until just now.
18:50
I don't think I'd like to roll out Unity overnight like that...
18:50
<alkisg>
!gnome-classic
18:50
<ltsp>
alkisg: gnome-classic: To select gnome-classic as your default session, put this line in your lts.conf: LDM_SESSION="gnome-session --session=gnome-classic"
18:50
<roasted>
oh dear
18:50
alkisg: stop being so awesome
18:50
you know, I still owe you like 4 cases of beer

18:51
<roasted>
I haven't, and certainly won't forget that.
18:51
You ever come up to Baltimore, Philadelphia, etc. Let me know.
18:51
so I take it gnome classic is included in 12.04?
18:52
or is it just included for the clients as part of LTSP?
18:52
<alkisg>
Edubuntu includes it, or you can just apt-get install gnome-session in plain Ubuntu
18:53
<roasted>
very nice
18:53
any advantage to doing edubuntu over ubuntu?
18:53
just preinstalled software?
18:54
<highvoltage>
roasted: mostly.
18:54
<roasted>
thought so
18:55
I'm going to be working on a server tonight for my old job...
18:55
one I set up when I was still there.
18:55
I joined it to the domain via likewise open (windows domain)
18:55
last week they took a controller offline thinking it would fix an issue they thought was isolated to that controller
18:56
now the server itself won't respond
18:56
won't hand out dhcp requests, nothing
18:56
configs look good, files look good, I was drawing a blank when I was on the phone helping them. We'll see what I get into tonight though...
18:57
all thanks to that Windows controller being taken offline... so strange...

somebody can help me with a localdev situation?
20:55
I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 and when I put an usb stick in thin client I notice that the device is mounted in /tmp/.marcelo-ltspfs
20:55
but the desktop icon isn't created

any tips about it ?

I need to identify myself, but I don't remember my passsword
21:11
gnome classic
21:12
<sbalneav>
Hm, should just pop up. This under Ubuntu?
21:12
<Guest9174>
yep, 10.04
21:12
we are experiencing this problem in two servers
21:13
is there some kind of log or debug that I could activate to understand what is happening ?
21:13
<sbalneav>
.xsession-errors is a good place to start.
21:13
<Guest9174>
hmmm, ok, I didn't look in this file
21:14
everything looks fine
21:14
the only problem is desktop icon
21:14
I'll take a look in .xsession-errors tomorrow

and another question: the ltspfs package is enought or I need to install ltspfsd ?
21:25
hmm, lbmount is just in case ltspfs can't mount the stick
21:26
but looking in ltspfsmounter I can't see references to icon creation
