| 07:46 | <jaidev> hi need some help for mnt folders
| |
| 07:46 | manager is able to see the mnt folders but the users get an empty mnt folder
| |
| 07:47 | the access to the mnt is mentioned in the fstab and the mounting is done from there
| |
| 07:47 | we are using a qnap NAS
| |
| 07:56 | Hi anyone?
| |

| 08:36 | <jaidev> need HELP with mnt folders
| |
| 08:38 | <quinox1> hello
| |
| 08:39 | I'm not sure about your particulars, but I usually use `mount` or `findmnt` to examine active mounts
| |
| 08:40 | which can differ from `fstab` because mounts can fail, mounts can be added later etc.
| |
| 08:44 | <alkisg> jaidev: are you in the correct channel? Are you using ltsp, or just qnap?
| |
| 08:45 | LTSP is about linux clients booted from a server on the network, without local disks
| |
| 08:52 | <jaidev> we have configured LTSP for fatclient
| |
| 08:52 | added a QNAP NAS for storage
| |
| 08:52 | the admin is able to see the mounted folders
| |
| 08:52 | the users are not
| |
| 08:52 | needed help for that
| |
| 08:53 | <alkisg> jaidev: what FSTAB line did you put to lts.conf?
| |
| 08:53 | <jaidev> i didnt put any
| |
| 08:55 | <alkisg> That's how fat clients mount nfs shares...
| |
| 08:55 | <jaidev> ah ok. could you please guide me?
| |
| 08:55 | <alkisg> You want the server to mount an nfs share, and the clients to see it via sshfs?
| |
| 08:55 | What is the fstab line on your server?
| |
| 08:56 | <jaidev> yes i have added the nas on the server
| |
| 08:56 | the server is able to see it but not the clients
| |
| 08:56 | <alkisg> Yes tell us the line
| |
| 08:56 | <jaidev> i have added the fstab lines in etc/fstab
| |
| 08:57 | ok 1 minute
| |
| 08:57 | <alkisg> cat /etc/fstab => and tell us
| |
| 09:00 | <jaidev> hi
| |
| 09:00 | did you get the lines?
| |
| 09:00 | <alkisg> No
| |
| 09:00 | You didn't copy them here
| |
| 09:01 | <jaidev> i am pasting the line here but it's not going through
| |
| 09:02 | <alkisg> If it starts with /, put a space before
| |
| 09:02 | Because / is special for irc
| |
| 09:02 | <jaidev> ah ok ok
| |
| 09:02 | //192.168.0.200/admin /mnt/admin cifs username=admin,password=xxx,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0
| |
| 09:02 | thank you
| |
| 09:03 | is this what you want?
| |
| 09:04 | <alkisg> OK so one option is to put this in lts.conf: LOCAL_APPS_EXTRAMOUNTS=/mnt/admin
| |
| 09:04 | <jaidev> ok
| |
| 09:05 | so i remove the # next to LOCAL_APPS_EXTRAMOUNTS=/mnt/admin?
| |
| 09:05 | will this work?
| |
| 09:06 | <alkisg> I haven't seen any #, I don't know what you are talking about
| |
| 09:06 | # means comment, so yes you don't need a comment there
| |
| 09:06 | <jaidev> yes that's what i mean
| |
| 09:07 | LOCAL_APPS_EXTRAMOUNTS=/mnt/admin
| |
| 09:10 | alkisg: for more than 1 folders?
| |
| 09:10 | <alkisg> jaidev: then you use commas, LOCAL_APPS_EXTRAMOUNTS=/mnt/admin,/mnt/folder2
| |
| 09:10 | <jaidev> ok thank you
| |
| 09:10 | and then rebuild the image?
| |
| 09:11 | <alkisg> The other way is to use:
| |
| 09:11 | FSTAB_0="//192.168.0.200/admin /mnt/admin cifs username=admin,password=xxx,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0"
| |
| 09:11 | You don't need to rebuild the image
| |
| 09:11 | <jaidev> ok
| |
| 09:12 | i have FSTAB_1, as per the second option i should add the FSTAB_0 as another line?
| |
| 09:13 | <alkisg> The second option will work if you have the password file in the chroot
| |
| 09:13 | So to do that one, you'll need ltsp-update-image...
| |
| 09:13 | <jaidev> ok
| |
| 09:13 | i am trying the first one you suggested
| |
| 09:14 | not working. mnt of the user is still blank
| |
| 09:14 | <alkisg> The mount folder needs to exist
| |
| 09:14 | If you don't have the mount folder in the chroot, you can create it with:
| |
| 09:15 | INIT_COMMAND_0="mkdir -p /mnt/admin"
| |
| 09:15 | <jaidev> i have the folders created on /mnt
| |
| 09:16 | <alkisg> On the client, if you run ls /var/cache/ltsp, do you see some env files?
| |
| 09:17 | If yes, put them to pastebin, after you remove any sensitive data...
| |
| 09:17 | !paste
| |
| 09:17 | <ltsp> paste: the LTSP pastebin is at http://ltsp.pastebin.com. Please paste all text longer than a line or two to the pastebin, as it helps to reduce traffic in the channel. Don't forget to paste the URL of the text here.
| |
| 09:18 | <jaidev> i see ltsp_config_env
| |
| 09:18 | <alkisg> Right, paste that one
| |
| 09:19 | <jaidev> i am sorry but how do i paste the file?
| |
| 09:19 | client does not have nano rights
| |
| 09:20 | ok got it
| |
| 09:20 | i'll do it
| |
| 09:20 | <alkisg> cat /var/cache/ltsp/ltsp_config_env | nc termbin.com 9999
| |
| 09:20 | This puts it directly to termbin.com
| |
| 09:20 | You can move it elsewhere if it has sensitive data...
| |
| 09:22 | <jaidev> ok pasted it
| |
| 09:22 | got a message http://termbin.com/msst
| |
| 09:23 | <alkisg> jaidev: so, these are the options the client sees
| |
| 09:24 | The client didn't see any FSTAB option
| |
| 09:24 | Nor any EXTRAMOUNTS option
| |
| 09:24 | <jaidev> ok
| |
| 09:24 | <alkisg> Either you put them in the wrong lts.conf, or in the wrong place inside lts.conf
| |
| 09:25 | <jaidev> this where is put it /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/amd64/lts.conf
| |
| 09:25 | <alkisg> This sounds correct
| |
| 09:25 | <jaidev> ok
| |
| 09:28 | you think i should try the FSTAB_0?
| |
| 09:32 | Statler has joined IRC (Statler!~Georg@p579FECED.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) | |
| 09:36 | <alkisg> jaidev: no, I think you should fix your lts.conf, it has errors
| |
| 09:37 | Maybe you put the lines in the wrong place, e.g. under [wrong header]
| |
| 09:37 | Put them under [default]
| |
| 09:37 | Can you paste your lts.conf?
| |
| 09:38 | <jaidev> sure
| |
| 09:38 | same place termbin?
| |
| 09:39 | <alkisg> termbin, pastebin, wherever you want
| |
| 09:40 | <jaidev> http://termbin.com/gda9
| |
| 09:40 | <alkisg> jaidev: did you reboot the client after you edited lts.conf?
| |
| 09:42 | <jaidev> yes just doing that now - i signed in out didnt reboot. sorry
| |
| 09:43 | sorry
| |
| 09:43 | <alkisg> np
| |
| 09:44 | <jaidev> alkisg thank you buddy. thank you :)
| |
| 09:44 | thank you
| |
| 09:45 | <alkisg> :)
| |
| 09:47 | <jaidev> alkisg which book/literature would you suggest for me to read about ubuntu/ltsp linux admin?
| |
| 09:47 | ricotz has joined IRC (ricotz!~ricotz@ubuntu/member/ricotz) | |
| 09:47 | <alkisg> jaidev: I don't think anyone has written an ltsp book
| |
| 09:47 | About ubuntu books, I don't know but there are many
| |
| 09:48 | wiki.ltsp.org has all the documentation we have
| |
| 09:51 | <jaidev> alkisg thank you once again.
