| 05:11 | <Guest62834> hi there -- running Ubuntu Mate LTSP server; looking for help on fat client /etc/hosts
| |
| 05:12 | i see by design that it gets overwritten at boot time, but i would like a handful of entries for local server resources
| |
| 05:13 | Guest62834 is now known as gatorparrots | |
| 05:14 | <gatorparrots> i saw one listserv message indicating that in lts.conf, there is an undocumented option for HOST_XX entries for this purpose

| 05:22 | Freejack has joined IRC (Freejack!~Freejack@unaffiliated/freejack) | |
| 05:26 | <gatorparrots> thus far tried setting those entries in lts.conf
| |
| 05:26 | and an rc.local script that echoes entries into /etc/hosts
| |
| 06:13 | should i look toward installing dnsmasq for local dns? it's really only for a single hosts entry, but 2-3 more would be nice to have
| |
| 06:14 | Statler has joined IRC (Statler!~Georg@p579FE58E.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) | |
| 06:26 | <alkisg> gatorparrots: dnsmasq would help in speeding up things
| |
| 06:26 | gatorparrots: are you sure your lts.conf gets parsed?
| |
| 06:27 | Put its contents to pastebin

| 06:30 | <alkisg> !epoptes
| |
| 06:30 | <ltsp`> epoptes: Epoptes is a computer lab administration and monitoring tool. It works on Ubuntu and Debian based labs with LTSP or non-LTSP servers, thin and fat clients, standalone workstations, NX clients etc. More info: http://www.epoptes.org
| |
| 06:30 | <alkisg> Epoptes helps a lot in testing things, it allows you for example to run this on the client:
| |
| 06:30 | getltscfg -a
| |
| 06:31 | ..and see if lts.conf gets properly parsed there

| 07:16 | <gatorparrots> lts.conf is for sure parsed -- i had DNS_SERVER as 192.168.1.1 (router), but it was letting pr0n through, even though the DNS servers on the router are set to use filtering DNS
| |
| 07:17 | <alkisg> OK, put your lts.conf to pastebin
| |
| 07:17 | <gatorparrots> so i changed the lts.conf to read "DNS_SERVERS 199.85.126.20 199.85.127.20" aka Norton ConnectSafe DNS and now the blocks are in place
| |
| 07:19 | do you have a syntax for lts.conf host entries? or was that a listserv myth?
| |
| 07:23 | http://pastebin.com/tUDNv04p
| |
| 07:25 | Here is the listserv message to which i refer: https://sourceforge.net/p/ltsp/mailman/message/34093808/
| |
| 07:28 | (i'm a good friend of bennabiy's — he helped us set up this lab)
| |
| 07:30 | okay, so i just figured it out: HOSTS_01="192.168.1.10 server server.tld"
| |
| 07:30 | HOSTS_02="192.168.1.11 anotherhost anotherhost.tld"
| |
| 07:34 | boy do i wish that was documented somewhere! except for that one listserv mention, i wouldn't have ever thought to try that syntax in lts.conf !
| |
| 07:47 | mikkel has joined IRC (mikkel!~mikkel@mail.dlvs.dk) | |
| 07:55 | <alkisg> gatorparrots: I don't see any HOSTS in that paste
| |
| 07:56 | Ah, you figured it out, ok
| |
| 07:56 | Also, your RCFILE syntax is wrong
| |
| 07:57 | See the correct syntax there: http://www.epoptes.org/documentation/fat-clients

| 11:30 | <alkisg> Welcome :D
| |
| 11:31 | <sruli> alkisg: i cannot seem to find anywhere on epoptes.org documentation for openssl, where do i need to look?
| |
| 11:31 | <alkisg> It's not documented, it's inside the code
| |
| 11:31 | It's using openssl by default for the client connections,
| |
| 11:31 | but I don't think it's using it for the assist function... let me check...
| |
| 11:31 | <sruli> alkisg: ok, so on github, the default install uses openssl?
| |
| 11:32 | <alkisg> Yes, but only for part of the functionality
| |
| 11:32 | It's also in ubuntu, you don't need to compile it or anything
| |
| 11:32 | just apt-get install
| |
| 11:33 | <sruli> alkisg: but for scoat and vnc does it use openssl by default?
| |
| 11:34 | alkisg: or is that something i can adjust easliy in config files?
| |
| 11:34 | <alkisg> It's using openssl with socat, but not for the task you want,
| |
| 11:34 | See this: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~epoptes/epoptes/trunk/view/head:/debian/epoptes.postinst
| |
| 11:34 | It has the code to generate the certificate etc
| |
| 11:35 | ...and this has the client side code for socat/openssl: https://github.com/Epoptes/epoptes/blob/master/epoptes-client/epoptes-client
| |
| 11:36 | So, to do what you want, we should clone that code into another file, which has the vnc/socat reverse connections, this one: https://github.com/Epoptes/epoptes/blob/master/data/client-functions
| |
| 11:37 | So basically only a couple of lines need to be modified
| |
| 11:37 | bbiab
| |
| 11:49 | <sruli> alkisg: i'm confused... /master/epoptes-client/epoptes-client has the code to generate certificate, what exactly do i need from /debian/epoptes.postinst and where in /master/data/client-functions do i need to put that code?
| |
| 12:19 | gdi2k has joined IRC (gdi2k!~gdi2k@210.5.107.2) | |
| 12:21 | <sruli> alkisg: you around?
| |
| 12:38 | <alkisg> sruli: around-ish...
| |
| 12:38 | Your goal is to make epoptes remote assist to run over ssl, or to get the code and run it manually without epoptes?
| |
| 12:38 | <sruli> alkisg: regarding openssl, i'm confused... /master/epoptes-client/epoptes-client has the code to generate certificate, what exactly do i need from /debian/epoptes.postinst and where in /master/data/client-functions do i need to put that code?
| |
| 12:42 | alkisg: my goal is to make eopoptes run vnc over ssl
| |
| 12:43 | <alkisg> sruli: you can file a bug report about it,
| |
| 12:43 | !epoptes-bug
| |
| 12:43 | <ltsp`> Error: "epoptes-bug" is not a valid command.
| |
| 12:43 | <alkisg> ...at launchpad :D,
| |
| 12:43 | and maybe we could implement it in some future release
| |
| 12:43 | I don't have the time right now to do the implementation
| |
| 12:43 | <sruli> alkisg: ok, but in the meantime is it a simple task to do manually?
| |
| 12:44 | <alkisg> It shouldn't take more than a few minutes, yes
| |
| 12:44 | <sruli> alkisg: any chance of a pointer in the right direction?
| |
| 12:44 | <alkisg> I tried to, in the last sentences before i left
| |
| 12:45 | Faith has joined IRC (Faith!~paty_@unaffiliated/faith) | |
| 12:45 | <alkisg> There are 2 places to read and 1 place to edit
| |
| 12:45 | (edit = client-functions)
| |
| 12:45 | <sruli> alkisg: as i said i am not to sure what to do with that sentence ;-)
| |
| 12:46 | <alkisg> The next more specific thing would be to copy/paste the code myself, which i don't have time to do currently... sorry...
| |
| 12:47 | <sruli> alkisg: what i dont understand is if /epoptes-client/epoptes-client has the code to generate certificate, what am i looking for in /debian/epoptes.postinst?
| |
| 12:48 | <alkisg> epoptes-client doesn't have code to generate certificate
| |
| 12:48 | it has code to fetch and use certificate
| |
| 12:52 | <sruli> alkisg: if i already have the cert installed, (socat) all i need is to copy fetch_certificate function and test -n "$need_certificate" && fetch_certificate to /client-functions ?
| |
| 12:59 | alkisg: i posted the issue on github, do you have a donate page?

| |
| 16:01 | <alkisg> Heya Scotty :)
| |
| 16:02 | <sbalneav> How goes, alkisg?
| |
| 16:02 | <alkisg> ...still waiting for the ministry to make up their minds about ltsp, but other than that, all is fine! you? :)
| |
| 16:03 | <sbalneav> Doing well; a significant portion of my time at work next year has been approved for LTSP and Mate work.
| |
| 16:04 | <alkisg> Yey!
| |
| 16:04 | I'm planning to deploy ubuntu-mate to schools here on september, so it'll be close enough to your debian-mate :)
| |
| 16:11 | <sbalneav> mate rocks
