IRC chat logs for #ltsp on irc.libera.chat (webchat)
Channel log from 12 April 2021 (all times are UTC)
| 00:18 | <alkisg> Helenah: which network file system is the server using, e.g. cifs, nfs, sshfs?
| |
| 00:24 | And what about authentication, do users have accounts/passwords there, or is it just one password for the administrator?
| |
| 00:25 | In general you should be able to replace pamltsp with pammount, and authenticate directly to the home server. Or just install ssh to the home server :)
| |
| 00:25 | And tell pamltsp to connect there instead of to the ltsp server...

| 11:30 | <Helenah> alkisg, It would be CIFS, I'm just thinking what the best solution is out of the ones that you've mentioned, oh and sorry for my delayed response by the way. I know this is IRC but I still like to ensure people get a response plus it helps with support if it's all done within the same day.
| |
| 11:30 | So erm...
| |
| 11:31 | having pamltsp connect to the storage server sounds nice seems as the storage server has SSH and the LTSP server is already using pamltsp
| |
| 11:32 | Okay just looking into panltsp :3
| |
| 11:32 | alkisg, I'm assuming it's used for things like credentials and home directories.
| |
| 11:33 | I know that's the purpose of PAM itself, but pamltsp, if the name of it is self explanatory is doing the same thing in a way suitable for LTSP.
| |

| 12:56 | <alkisg> Helenah: do these users have usernames and passwords on the cifs server?
| |
| 12:57 | If so, you can just set SSH_SERVER=that-ip in ltsp.conf
| |
| 12:57 | Then the images will boot from ltsp-server, but home will come from SSH_SERVER
| |
| 12:57 | *the ltsp clients will get the image from the ltsp-server, but home will come from SSH_SERVER
| |
| 12:59 | <Helenah> Thing is...
| |
| 13:00 | There is also... /home/user/Common
| |
| 13:00 | Where shared stuff is put
| |
| 13:00 | But maybe I can link the common directories together
| |
| 13:00 | o.o
| |
| 13:00 | <alkisg> That's not a problem. pamltsp mounts user@server:
| |
| 13:00 | That : means "the default user directory"
| |
| 13:00 | It doesn't set a path; so it can be defined on the server without changing anything in ltsp.conf
| |
| 13:01 | So if you ssh user@server, and run pwd, and you're in /home/user/Common, all is fine
