14:19	ltspnewbie has joined IRC (ltspnewbie!d4d39af8@212.211.154.248)
14:21	<ltspnewbie> Hi. I am using LTSP with NFS $HOME instead of SSHFS. Is there a way to disable the 'pamltsp' module checking for every auth and throwing an error that sshfs could not mount $HOME?
14:24	lucascastro has joined IRC (lucascastro!~lucascast@189.90.44.253.jupiter.com.br)
14:26	<alkisg> ltspnewbie: when using NFS home, pamltsp then doesn't try to mount home over sshfs
14:26	Can you pastebin your ltsp.conf?
14:26	ltspnewbie has left IRC (ltspnewbie!d4d39af8@212.211.154.248, Quit: Ping timeout (120 seconds))
14:27	ltspnewbie has joined IRC (ltspnewbie!d4d39af8@212.211.154.248)
14:28	<ltspnewbie> sorry... that was stupid: https://pastebin.com/VDeyrFLm
14:29	It actually mounts the homes successfully but for some reason pamltsp still thinks the client uses sshfs
14:30	lucascastro has left IRC (lucascastro!~lucascast@189.90.44.253.jupiter.com.br, Ping timeout: 264 seconds)
14:37	<alkisg> ltspnewbie: mind if I see over vnc?
14:38	!vnc-dide
14:38	<ltspbot> vnc-dide: To share your screen with me, run this: sudo apt-get --yes install x11vnc; x11vnc -connect srv1-dide.ioa.sch.gr - this is a reverse connection, it doesn't need port forwarding etc.
14:38	<alkisg> Note that your IMAGE_TO_RAM=1 is under [crt_monitor], so it's not applied
14:40	This is the autodetection check: if [ "$SSHFS" = 0 ] \|\| ! command -v sshfs >/dev/null \|\| mountpoint -q /home \|\| mountpoint -q "$pw_dir"
14:40	<ltspnewbie> vnc is not easily doable i am afraid i am behind a proxy
14:40	<alkisg> So, I want to run `mountpoint -q /home` right before login on a client, and see why it's not true, if you're actually mounting home over nfs
14:41	OK, do that ^ then
14:41	Reboot a client, don't login, and run `mountpoint /home` via epoptes
14:44	<ltspnewbie> I am on a headless server setup and did not use epoptes until now. I am going to have a look at that autodetection check
14:45	<alkisg> !root
14:45	<ltspbot> I do not know about 'root', but I do know about these similar topics: 'ROOT_PASSWORD_HASH', 'chroot'
14:46	<ltspnewbie> I was wondering if I could disable this check via OMIT_FUNCTIONS in ltsp.conf
14:46	but this could be something else, no?
14:46	<alkisg> ltspnewbie: you have something wrong, and you want to add another wrong instead of fixing it?
14:46	E.g. maybe this will reveal that you're not actually using nfs
14:46	And that you're using tmpfs, and things get lost on reboot
14:46	lucascastro has joined IRC (lucascastro!~lucascast@177-185-131-162.corp.isotelco.net.br)
14:47	<alkisg> You can enable a root hash to be able to login as root on the clients
14:47	And run the check from there
14:47	<ltspnewbie> I saw that
14:47	<alkisg> See `man ltsp.conf`, last paragraph
14:47	<ltspnewbie> That maybe the best...
14:48	<alkisg> But remember to not login as a user before. To have a freshly rebooted client when you run `mountpoint /home`.
14:55	<ltspnewbie> It doesnt apply that root password hash. I ran `ltsp initrd` after changing ltsp.conf - do I have to do something else to let it take effect?
14:56	nvm i probably took the wrong one...
15:05	ok i can login as root
15:16	I am sshing on the client. What exactly do you want me to check now?
15:16	<alkisg> (04:40:51 PM) alkisg: So, I want to run `mountpoint /home` right before login on a client, and see why it's not true, if you're actually mounting home over nfs
15:16	<ltspnewbie> root@pc7010-48:~# mountpoint /home
15:16	<alkisg> No output?
15:17	<ltspnewbie> `/home is a mountpoint`
15:17	the other user is actually from ldap
15:18	`skombrink@pc7010-48.zkrd-h10.de's password:
15:18	.Pamltsp failed to mount home via SSHFS: .
15:18	Welcome to Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (GNU/Linux 5.4.0-26-generic x86_64)
15:18	`
15:18	<alkisg> What command did you run to see these messages?
15:19	<ltspnewbie> `ssh skombrink@pc7010-48`
15:19	remote login with ldap user
15:19	<alkisg> By remote login, do you mean ssh TO the client or FROM the client ?
15:19	<ltspnewbie> it works but it hangs a while and dumps this error msg from pamltsp
15:19	i am sshing into the booted ltsp client
15:20	from my local machine
15:20	<alkisg> OK please dont do that
15:20	<ltspnewbie> ltspserver is a vm
15:20	<alkisg> We want to test if normal things work
15:20	<ltspnewbie> it is the same if i login at the pc client
15:21	the graphical login fails it just logs me in when i use the terminal
15:24	<alkisg> OK, if you want to test properly, log in as root on the client using the hash ltsp.conf method, then run `mountpoint /home`, with no users logged in
15:24	The rest are too complex to troubleshoot over IRC, e.g. it took an hour to realize you're ssh'ing into the client...
15:27	eu^host-091-097- has joined IRC (eu^host-091-097-!5b6170ef@host-091-097-112-239.ewe-ip-backbone.de)
15:29	<ltspnewbie> I wasn't sshing in the beginning. I just did because I had to walk to the client all the time and the behavior seemed identical no matter if I connect remotely or locally
15:30	going to reboot and login locally
15:32	eu^host-091-097- is now known as jorigel
15:32	<alkisg> jorigel: nice
15:33	Now please run this: x11vnc -connect alkisg.ltsp.org
15:35	<jorigel> thats what I did got:
15:35	aborting LTSP, while booting client on debian server
15:36	<alkisg> jorigel: ok, I know the issue, now I want you to share your screen with me so that we troubleshoot this faster,
15:36	<jorigel> caught X11 error:
15:36	28/01/2021 16:33:59 deleted 1 tile_row polling images.
15:36	X Error of failed request: BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)
15:36	Major opcode of failed request: 130 (MIT-SHM)
15:36	Minor opcode of failed request: 1 (X_ShmAttach)
15:36	Serial number of failed request: 52
15:36	Current serial number in output stream: 55
15:36	<alkisg> is your server headless?
15:36	<jorigel> yes
15:36	<alkisg> Do not paste more than 2-3 lines in IRC as then freenode will kick/ban you
15:36	<jorigel> ok
15:37	<alkisg> jorigel: run this: /usr/share/epoptes-client/share-terminal 81.186.20.0
15:37	On the server
15:37	<ltspnewbie> alkisg: output is again `/home is a mountpoint`
15:37	<alkisg> ltspnewbie: then LTSP wouldn't use SSHFS, as you see from the code
15:42	<ltspnewbie> if I grep for that line it doesnt find it. where did you paste it from?
15:44	ok I found it.
15:50	i've got an idea why it might happen... ldap might return a different home dir
15:55	<alkisg> ltspnewbie: yeah that would take ages to guess over IRC that's why I gave up
15:55	jorigel: the problem is that ltsp ipxe is incompatible with bash,
15:55	while usually /bin/sh points to /bin/dash, not /bin/bash
15:55	So you need two things: (1) please file a bug report that `ltsp ipxe` doesn't work properly with bash,
15:56	and (2) symlink /bin/sh to /bin/dash as it normally is; why did you select bash there?
15:56	As a workaround, I put #!/bin/dash at the top of /usr/sbin/ltsp, so it works now
15:57	<jorigel> ok, I have to analyse this
15:57	<alkisg> Why did you put bash in /bin/sh?
15:58	<jorigel> I dont see that I did that . . .
15:58	I will have a look
15:58	<alkisg> ls -l /bin/sh
15:58	lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Nov 14 2019 /bin/sh -> dash
15:58	Normally it points to dash
15:58	But you modified it to point to bash
15:58	This isn't normal for debian-based systems
16:00	<jorigel> maybe a program installation did that?
16:01	<alkisg> It would have to be a program outside of debian
16:01	<jorigel> I don't remember ever changing a symlink in there . . .
16:01	<alkisg> I believe it would violate debian policy if a debian package did that
16:01	OK, do you want me to put it back?
16:01	It might cause more problems for you, unrelated to ltsp
16:01	<jorigel> yes, pls.
16:02	<alkisg> jorigel: all OK now
16:03	<jorigel> thanks a lot. I will try to have a look, what was going on there. . .
16:04	<alkisg> I reported the ltsp bug there: https://github.com/ltsp/ltsp/issues/389
16:05	<ltspnewbie> alkisg: thanks... ldap is a different issue... unfortunately not all users have the same home dir. I'll have to see what to do there.
16:05	<alkisg> OK
