| 15:12 | <Tomahock> Hello, I am trying to enable an LTSP server on Ubuntu 18, which is the most appropriate to install Ubuntu Server 18 or Ubuntu Desktop 18?
| |
| 15:13 | <alkisg> Tomahock: the easiest way is with ubuntu-desktop-18, and chrootless installation
| |
| 15:13 | Why 18.04 instead of 22.04?
| |
| 15:15 | <Tomahock> If what happens, I am going to install it on an HP host that, due to hypervisor compatibility issues, only allows me to install the version of the hypervisor xenserver 7.2, which only allows the creation of virtual machines only up to version 18 of ubuntu
| |
| 15:20 | <alkisg> Strange, but OK, any ubuntu version after 16 will work fine
| |
| 15:21 | <Tomahock> Alkisg, is opting for the ubuntu desktop 18 version only for ease of installation or is the performance of the clients better? Does not just using a network card on the server cause a major problem?
| |
| 15:22 | <alkisg> It's ease of installation AND maintenance, because that way you don't have to use "chroot" to maintain the client image.
| |
| 15:23 | The performance is the same. I didn't get what you mean about a network card; of course the server will require a network card
| |
| 15:24 | <Tomahock> Yes, I was referring to only using one network card on the server, because in the installation guides almost all contemplate the scenario of using two network cards, one for the WAN and the other for the clients on the LAN.
| |
| 15:25 | <alkisg> I think you're reading how-tos from the old ltsp
| |
| 15:25 | Use this one instead: https://ltsp.org/docs/installation/

| 17:48 | <Tomahock> Hello, how can I update the image that I create with the command
| |
| 17:48 | ltsp image /
| |
| 17:49 | <alkisg> Tomahock: you e.g. install more stuff on the server, then you re-run `ltsp image /`, then you reboot the clients
| |
| 17:50 | <Tomahock> ok, thank you very much
| |
| 17:58 | I think I'm on the right track in the installation of LTSP on ubuntu 18.04, when the client loads, there is a way to avoid showing all the user accounts at the start of the session, if I have 100 accounts, the 100 will be listed at the start of session or only the first 5 are shown, how to make it simply ask for the username and password and not
| |
| 17:58 | list the users

| 19:30 | <Tomahock> hello, in my initial test of LTSP on ubuntu 18 following the official guide https://ltsp.org/docs/installation/ if I already loaded a client, after the initial creation of the image I created several user accounts to test with these accounts on multiple client stations and then run :
| |
| 19:30 | ltsp image /
| |
| 19:30 | But when loading the clients, it does not recognize the new user accounts, as I must update the image so that it has the new accounts created, it is not enough with:
| |
| 19:30 | ltsp image /
| |
| 19:32 | <alkisg> ltsp initrd, then reboot clients
| |
| 19:32 | vagrantc has joined IRC (vagrantc!~vagrant@2600:3c01:e000:21:7:77:0:50) | |
| 19:41 | <Tomahock> Thanks, the new accounts created in the clients are already listed, so every time I make a change in the server, these two commands would be necessary to reflect the changes in the clients:
| |
| 19:41 | ltsp image /
| |
| 19:41 | ltsp initrd
| |
| 19:42 | <vagrantc> should only need "ltsp initrd" ... unless you are doing something unusual
| |
| 19:43 | well, with new accounts ... with new packages, yeah, you need to run the whole thing
| |
| 19:43 | run both, that is
