| 02:04 | <bennabiy> markit: you can change it in udev with 70-udev-net-rules (dont quote me on the filename)
| |
| 02:15 | Does anyone know if you can use dhcp to specify the right IP address and subnet to allow for internet access on the fat client, and still ltsp, without using DNSmasq or NAT?
| |
| 02:28 | <jammcq> bennabiy: you might just need to turn on forwarding on the ltsp server
| |
| 02:29 | well... it really depends on your network topology
| |
| 02:38 | bennabiy has left IRC (bennabiy!~Thunderbi@24-181-55-79.dhcp.gnvl.sc.charter.com, Quit: http://www.twelvetribes.org) | |

| 02:48 | <bennabiy> hmm. My network topology is a 2 nic setup with lab on one subnet, and lan / internet on another
| |
| 02:48 | router issuing DHCP for main subnet, lab server issuing dhcp for lab
| |
| 02:49 | <jammcq> sot he LTSP server is sitting between the thin clients and the rest of the network?
| |
| 02:50 | <bennabiy> yes
| |
| 02:50 | but I was to run one fat client
| |
| 02:51 | and not really wanting to set up NAT for anyone to just plug into the network through the lab
| |
| 02:51 | if the fat client is issued a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0 wouldn't it work for accessing both .0.* and .1.* networks?
| |
| 02:51 | <jammcq> well... you need to turn on ip_forwarding on the server.
| |
| 02:52 | <bennabiy> oh yeah....
| |
| 02:52 | * bennabiy smacks head | |
| 02:52 | <jammcq> and then, either setup NAT on the server, add a static route to your router, pointing back at the ltsp server, so that responses can get back to the thin clients
| |
| 02:53 | that is, either NAT or a static route
| |
| 02:53 | <bennabiy> I guess I might as well just do NAT
| |
| 02:53 | <jammcq> nat is easy
| |
| 02:53 | <bennabiy> yes
| |
| 02:54 | If I have a dhcpd.conf which has settings for all clients, and then it has a host directive, will settings in that override the globals?)
| |
| 02:54 | for that host?
| |
| 03:01 | <jammcq> umm, I think so
| |
| 03:01 | it's been so long since i've even looked at a dhcpd.conf file

| 19:14 | * bennabiy marvels at how quiet it is today... | |
| 19:25 | <bennabiy> Why do I not have sudo access through my fat client, but I do through thin and server?
| |
| 19:27 | <alkisg> bennabiy: because the passwd hash isn't copied by ldm to the client
| |
| 19:27 | So since you don't have a local password, you can't authenticate yourself...
| |
| 19:27 | Some people here think that's good for security...
| |
| 19:27 | (not storing the passwd hash locally)
| |
| 19:29 | If you want to be able to authenticate for sudo without giving a password, put RC_FILE01=echo "%sudo ALL=NOPASSWD: ALL >> /etc/sudoers or something...
| |
| 19:31 | <bennabiy> I want to have to give a password, but my password is not working
| |
| 19:32 | Is there a way to allow for me to have a local user / password which will work?
| |
| 19:32 | Also, I am getting the reverse display bug as my thin clients
| |
| 19:33 | this time, I want it to use the laptop screen, and it is putting the login off to the left
| |
| 19:34 | * bennabiy is not too impressed by fat clients so far... | |
| 19:34 | <bennabiy> ;)
| |
| 19:40 | <alkisg> No you can't have a local password without hacking ldm
| |
| 19:40 | The display issues are the same for thins and fat clients
| |
| 19:40 | To be impressed, just run a full screen flash
| |
| 19:41 | Or any 3d app
| |
| 19:41 | <bennabiy> but why does my password work on a thin, and not fat?
| |
| 19:41 | <alkisg> You can't have a full screen flash player or 3d apps with thins...
| |
| 19:41 | Because on thins you _are_ on the server
| |
| 19:41 | <bennabiy> meh
| |
| 19:41 | <alkisg> Your password doesn't work with thins + localapps though...
| |
| 19:41 | Only on the server
| |
| 19:42 | <bennabiy> so how is one supposed to do anything administrative on a client?
| |
| 19:42 | <alkisg> Like what?
| |
| 19:42 | Install programs? To be lost on reboot?
| |
| 19:42 | <bennabiy> like commandline things
| |
| 19:42 | <alkisg> Like?
| |
| 19:42 | Troubleshooting is the same on thins and fats
| |
| 19:42 | !screen_02
| |
| 19:42 | <ltsp`> screen_02: To get a root shell on an Ubuntu thin client: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/ClientTroubleshooting#Using_a_shell_SCREEN
| |
| 19:43 | <alkisg> ...for example...
| |
| 19:43 | <bennabiy> Administering server scripts
| |
| 19:43 | <alkisg> To be lost on reboot?
| |
| 19:43 | <bennabiy> SERVER, not local
| |
| 19:43 | <alkisg> If you ssh to the server, then your password works
| |
| 19:43 | <bennabiy> ahh
| |
| 19:43 | hmm
| |
| 19:44 | one minute
| |
| 19:44 | <alkisg> Having an option for LDM to store the passwd hash would be nice, but it's not _essential_
| |
| 19:47 | <bennabiy> yes
| |
| 19:48 | how fast is it to run things like a VM locally, when the files are on the server?
| |
| 19:48 | :wq
| |
| 19:51 | <alkisg> bennabiy: fat clients are like local installations, except for the password thing
| |
| 19:51 | The network disk speed is comparable to a local disk speed
| |
| 19:52 | <bennabiy> ok
| |
| 19:52 | Any thoughts on the display issue?
| |
| 19:53 | For some reason, when I try to use an external monitor on the fat client, the display starts resetting over and over... when I use only the screen, it is login screen to the left
| |
| 19:54 | Is there any way to seed a fat client install from an ISO?
| |
| 20:08 | <alkisg> About the display, either put video:lvds-1=off or something in the command line, or put an XRANDR...=off command in lts.conf
| |
| 20:08 | Both are mentioned in the irc logs...
| |
| 20:19 | alkisg has left IRC (alkisg!~alkisg@ubuntu/member/alkisg, Quit: Leaving.) | |
| 20:29 | <bennabiy> hmm. Does not let me change display settings on my fat client
| |
| 20:30 | getting transport end points not connected

| 20:33 | <stgraber> ragnarw: I am now
| |
| 20:40 | <bennabiy> stgraber: Are you considered a MOTU?

| |
| 20:50 | <stgraber> bennabiy: I'm quite a bit more than a MOTU :)
| |
| 20:50 | but yeah, being a coredev and archive-admin, I'm indirectly part of MOTU too
| |
| 20:50 | bennabiy: no idea for your ssh error... is that using nfs or just standard sshfs?
| |
| 20:50 | <bennabiy> nbd sshfs
| |
| 20:51 | not nfs
| |
| 20:51 | stgraber: Would you be one I could talk to about getting a simple ldm package into repo?

| |
| 21:24 | <ragnarw> stgraber: did you post the photos you took at BTS somewhere?
| |
| 21:24 | <stgraber> ragnarw: not yet, had a pretty busy week, got them all loaded on my laptop at least, just need to do some triaging and publish at photos.stgraber.org
| |
| 21:25 | <ragnarw> stgraber: I know the feeling :) I am off again, will catch up with you in a week or two!
| |
