| |
| 08:00 | <alkisg> enaut[m]: indeed
| |
| 08:05 | <enaut[m]> alkisg: Also I think python3-twisted is missing from the depends - in debian/control - at least for me I needed to install it.
| |
| 08:06 | <alkisg> enaut[m]: you are right, it works for us here because we also install epoptes which pulls twisted; I need to correct those two issues, thanks!

| 09:40 | <Helenah> hmm
| |
| 09:40 | Does the NFS server have available to it the LTSP server root dir?
| |
| 09:41 | I know /home is mounted to /home on the clients via NFS
| |
| 09:45 | <alkisg> Did you configure it to /etc/exports?
| |
| 09:46 | <Helenah> hmm
| |
| 09:47 | That doesn't appear to exist on my LTSP server.
| |
| 09:47 | I'm gonna read up on exports
| |
| 09:48 | Yeah, sounds like it needs to be on the LTSP server, or any server to be used for NFS.
| |
| 09:49 | alkisg: I did locate on the server (not chroots), and there is no /etc/exports, however according to a Red Hat guide, it sounds like it has to be there for NFS to work.
| |
| 09:56 | Wait, interesting the mount command can be used. alkisg Is LTSP using the mount command instead for mounting the NFS home directories?

| 12:16 | <alkisg> Helenah: you can use whatever you like in ltsp to mount things. FSTAB_xx lts.conf directives, RCFILE_xx lts.conf directives, or whatever else you prefer

| |
| 12:45 | alkisg has joined IRC (alkisg!~alkisg@ubuntu/member/alkisg) | |
| 12:45 | <Helenah> alkisg: Welcome back!
| |
| 12:46 | So if LTSP uses NFS for the home directories, then where is this set?
| |
| 12:46 | <alkisg> eh, not really :D I think I'll be back in 4 hours
| |
| 12:46 | LTSP uses sshfs
| |
| 12:46 | and nbd
| |
| 12:46 | Not nfs by default

| 12:46 | alkisg has left IRC (alkisg!~alkisg@ubuntu/member/alkisg, Client Quit) | |
| 12:46 | <Helenah> I noticed that, so now I know what it's using sshfs for.
| |
| 12:53 | Hi guys, there is little information on the WWW which talks about the inner clockwork of LTSP.
| |
| 12:54 | Therefore, I am now struggling to find information in regards to have LTSP manages sshfs mountpoints such as user home directories.

| 18:47 | alkisg has joined IRC (alkisg!3e01e013@ubuntu/member/alkisg) | |
| 18:48 | <Helenah_> alkisg: Welcome back!
| |
| 18:48 | <alkisg> Hi Helenah_
| |
| 18:49 | <Helenah_> How does LTSP manage sshfs?
| |
| 18:49 | <alkisg> How big is life? :)
| |
| 18:49 | <Helenah_> I can't find where the home dirs are set
| |
| 18:49 | <alkisg> That's a very general question
| |
| 18:49 | <Helenah_> How is large, massive like the universe
| |
| 18:49 | <alkisg> What are you trying to do and what problems are you having?
| |
| 18:50 | The home dirs in unix are set in /etc/passwd
| |
| 18:50 | <Helenah_> With LTSP using sshfs for the home directories, I wanted to adopt the same method for mounting other dirs.
| |
| 18:50 | <alkisg> !lts.conf
| |
| 18:50 | <ltsp> lts.conf: (#1) http://manpages.ubuntu.com/lts.conf, or (#2) lts.conf manpage is available in the ltsp-docs package
| |
| 18:50 | <alkisg> See LOCAL_APPS_EXTRAMOUNTS there
| |
| 18:51 | <Helenah_> Aaaah
| |
| 18:51 | <alkisg> See, if the question is to the point, the answer is to the point too :)
| |
| 18:51 | <Helenah_> Is there no REMOTE_APPS_EXTRAMOUNTS?
| |
| 18:52 | Or have I missed it?
| |
| 18:52 | <alkisg> What would that mean? To mount a thin client local disk remotely to the server?
| |
| 18:52 | <Helenah_> To mount a disk on the server, on a fat client via sshfs. I can adopt EXTRAMOUNTS for my thin clients.
| |
| 18:53 | <alkisg> The client has a local internal disk?
| |
| 18:53 | <Helenah_> The fat client? No.
| |
| 18:54 | <alkisg> This is LOCAL_APPS_EXTRAMOUNT then
| |
| 18:54 | It mounts dirs from the server to the clients
| |
| 18:54 | <Helenah_> Nice, and that will definately work for fat clients too?
| |
| 18:54 | <alkisg> Yes
| |
| 18:54 | <Helenah_> Thanks
| |
| 19:17 | I'm not sure I'm understanding EXTRAMOUNTS, I set LOCAL_APPS_EXTRAMOUNTS="/srv/common/", and I assumed it would mount /srv/common/ on the server to /srv/common/ on the thin or fat client...
| |
| 19:19 | In the man page it says "thin client", but I wasn't sure if the man page was more correct, or you.
| |
| 19:27 | I tried removing the quotes too.

| 20:16 | <Helenah_> Sorry if I'm coming across as an idiot.
| |
| 20:31 | <alkisg> Helenah_: does that dir exist on the client?
| |
| 20:32 | Helenah_: try this in lts.conf: INIT_COMMAND_MKDIRS="mkdir -p /srv/common"
