| 02:22 | <Dodger> hi all, will it irritate everyone if I ask some VERY newb thin client questions?
| |
| 02:42 | Since no one objected, I'll go ahead =)
| |
| 02:43 | I'm starting up a school - VERY beginner classes on things like Word, Excel, digital advertising, using Google Docs, that sort of thing (with most classes running for 8 hours on a Saturday or 4 two-hour sessions in evenings)
| |
| 02:43 | I'm trying to decide between workstations / laptops / Chromebooks / thin clients
| |
| 02:44 | I can't really get my head about the fundamentals of a thin client network. Could I just set up LTSP on a server then buy cheap thin clients off of Ebay?
| |
| 02:46 | Is it ok if the thin clients are a mixture of makes and models? Is there anything I need to look for in their technical specs to ensure they'd work with LTSP? Could I provide a Windows virtual desktop via LTSP? Word and Excel? Any other limitations that might not be immediately obvious?

| 11:36 | <ZAJDAN> hi
| |
| 11:37 | right now Iam trying watch epoptes throught ssh 'ssh -X user@192.168.1.1' ..and after established connection 'epoptes'
| |
| 11:38 | I have remote window of epoptes, but I see not connected client
| |
| 11:41 | <alkisg> ZAJDAN: are there connected clients?
| |
| 11:41 | <ZAJDAN> Ha! after reboot client is all ok.....but for Alkisg it will be good to know, when client had unplugged cable and epoptes lost the client, after reconnect doesn't get him back
| |
| 11:42 | <alkisg> Recent epoptes versions do support reconnections
| |
| 11:42 | GodFather__ has joined IRC (GodFather__!~rcc@47.33.250.142) | |
| 11:43 | <ZAJDAN> alkisg: mine is Epoptes 0.5.7
| |
| 11:43 | <alkisg> Upgrade it then :)
| |
| 11:44 | Get 0.5.10
| |
| 11:46 | GodFather__ has left IRC (GodFather__!~rcc@47.33.250.142, Client Quit) | |
| 11:46 | GodFather__ has joined IRC (GodFather__!~rcc@47.33.250.142) | |
| 11:50 | <ZAJDAN> alkisg: can I do it via 'apt-get install --only-upgrade epoptes' ...?
| |
| 11:51 | <alkisg> ZAJDAN: distro/version?
| |
| 11:51 | <ZAJDAN> Debian 8 x64
| |
| 11:51 | <alkisg> http://packages.debian.org/epoptes
| |
| 11:51 | Jessie-backports has 0.5.10
| |
| 11:51 | Enable backports...
| |
| 12:00 | <ZAJDAN> alkisg: epoptes has been updated to 5.10 , is somehow possible get info about active clients, into new instance of epoptes?
| |
| 12:01 | <alkisg> If you mean "how to upgrade clients", you should run ltsp-update-image -c / and reboot them
| |
| 12:03 | <ZAJDAN> not....I mean than during update epoptes has been epoptes restarted/deleted and installed new version and when I started the new version of epoptes I see not active clients..do I have to reboot clients?
| |
| 12:03 | or somehow send probe packet
| |
| 12:03 | <alkisg> Yes, because they are old and don't support reconnects
| |
| 12:03 | If you already had 0.5.10, you would see them after epoptes upgrade
| |
| 12:04 | <ZAJDAN> I updated just server side app(epoptes)
| |
| 12:04 | I do not need epoptes on clients
| |
| 12:05 | simply say I will need just reboot clients?

| 12:07 | GodFather has joined IRC (GodFather!~rcc@47.33.250.142) | |
| 12:08 | <alkisg> You need to update epoptes on clients and reboot them
| |
| 12:22 | <ZAJDAN> so then I need ltsp-update-image ...yes?
| |
| 12:23 | <alkisg> Yes
| |
| 12:23 | <ZAJDAN> ok will do..thnx
| |
| 12:23 | <alkisg> np
| |
| 12:25 | <ZAJDAN> would be perfect from epoptes some scheduler/timer for shutdown clients (just idea)
| |
| 12:26 | <alkisg> You can run `sudo sleep 10m && poweroff` from the execute menu fi you want
| |
| 12:28 | <ZAJDAN> thnx for hint

| 14:42 | <||cw> doens't that need to be sudo (sleep 10m && poweroff) ?
| |
| 15:00 | <alkisg> ||cw: it's a trick, when you say "sudo" in epoptes, the whole command is executed by the epoptes root client (system-wide instance)
| |
| 15:01 | It's not an actual command, it's a directive...
| |
| 15:01 | <||cw> nice
