Felix765Hi pips101:05
pips1hi01:05
Felix765Do you happen to know anything about ltsp?01:05
pips1_a little :)01:06
willvdleeek! a clone!01:07
pips1_hehe01:07
Felix765I'm new to it. Running edubuntu server and trying to connect from edubuntu desktop, but get 'connection refused'01:07
willvdlFelix765, how are you trying to connect?01:08
Felix765I'm using the Terminal Server Client in ed. desktop01:08
Felix765Should I use RDP setting or VLC etc?01:08
Felix765How can I tell if ltsp is even running on the server? Is there a process I can grep for?01:09
Felix765I don't want to use thin client, just client app running on thick client.01:09
pips1Felix765: I would like to help you, but I'm busy preparing some text for the release tomorrow.01:10
pips1can you come back at another time?01:10
Felix765Sure01:10
pips1sorry :)01:10
cliebowFelix765, ltsp is all about  thin client..but  there are numeroous ways to get a  desktop on  a linux server01:10
bimberiFelix765: Just install a vncserver on the server and connect to that.01:11
cliebownx  is way  cool...vnc is..well.challenged01:11
cliebowan sshvnc-applet works01:11
Burgworkcliebow: nx has serious licensing issues01:11
bimberiwell, vnc is ok on a LAN ;)01:11
cliebowohh??freenx?01:11
Felix765Doesn't vnc take over an existing running desktop, whereas terminal server method logs in to new session?01:12
Burgworkcliebow: well, freenx is nice but the nx people are not playing nice with the X people01:12
bimberiFelix765: no, that's vino01:12
Felix765bimberi: vino?01:12
bimberiFelix765: you can set up separate sessions using vnc01:12
cliebowltsp  is about thin-client..d/l a kernel..mount aan nfs chroot01:12
bimberi!vino-server01:12
ubotuSorry, I don't know anything about vino-server - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi01:12
bimberiurgh01:12
cliebowBurgwork, i am sorry to hear thatr..01:13
bimberi!info vino01:13
ubotuvino: VNC server for GNOME. In component main, is optional. Version 2.16.0-0ubuntu2.4 (edgy), package size 173 kB, installed size 1956 kB01:13
bimberi!vnc01:13
ubotuVNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX01:13
ajmitchBurgwork: you mean being a GPL-only fork of an old xfree86?01:13
cliebowheh01:14
Burgworkbasically, yes01:14
ajmitchit blocks including any of the tens of thousands of lines of changes in x.org01:14
Felix765cliebow: I know that ltsp does the network boot stuff for setting up the clients, doesn't it also server-side stuff to allow connections?01:15
cliebownot really..01:16
Felix765What I want is for multiple clients, running on windows, to be able to connect to individual sessions on the server and run firefox01:16
cliebowyou can take a kernel and a filesystem and plunk  it on any system that provides 4 essential services01:16
Felix765but I'm testing at the moment with Edubuntu desktop01:17
cliebowcant just use windows  firefox..i dont see the point01:17
Felix765cliebow: There is a point believe me01:17
cliebowhmmm..maybe you better explain..better  yet..explain on 3ltsp01:18
Felix765cliebow: I want users to have access to a web based document management system without the ability to retain any temporary copies which may get downloaded to their pc's01:19
cliebowerr. how about running cygwin on windows?01:19
Felix765Haven't looked in to that01:19
Felix765cygwin is not free is it01:20
Felix765?01:20
cliebowfar as   iknow it is..always used to was01:20
Felix765OK. but it will require installation on 50 pc's whereas RDP for example is alreadythere and lightweight01:21
cliebowyep..01:21
cliebowjust pay the Man..01:21
cliebowwindows 200 server..oor 200301:22
Felix765SO I don't need to worry about ltsp then. I just need ...?01:22
bimberiFelix765: There is this - http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/VNC_GDM .  It uses XDMCP which doesn't have a great security reputation though.01:22
Felix765Thank, I'll have a look01:22
Felix765cliebow: VNC can set up new seesions for users can it? I didn't know that01:23
cliebowyou cant take over an ols session on a linux box running on  :0 x11vnc is the glue for that..but it will set up a new session01:24
cliebowrunning  vnc via xientd is way cool cause you get a login screen from gdm..thtat is what rmy  windows compadres do here01:25
Felix765that sounds interesting, can you provide any (more) pointers?01:26
cliebowbimberi's url is the heart of it01:27
bimberithere's also this: http://www.movingtofreedom.org/2007/02/16/howto-remote-desktop-with-vnc-in-ubuntu-edgy-gnu-linux/01:27
Felix765Ok, I'll go and read that.01:27
cliebowyou can if you get really ored look at wiki.ltsp.org under experimentala01:27
bimberi(which looks good but very long winded I must say)01:27
cliebowfor sshvnc-applet01:28
Felix765Thank guys.01:28
cliebowgood luck01:28

bettspHi, is there any documentation on setting up a login server for [e,x,k] Ubuntu?03:21
Burgworklogin server?03:22
Burgworkie: centralized accounts?03:22
bettspBurgwork: Yeah, separate computers, separate installations, but they talk to one PC for /etc/passwd et al03:23
Burgworkfor that you need ldap03:23
bettspNot a full thin-client implementation03:23
Burgworkldap, not ltsp03:23
Burgworkand why not use ltsp fat clients?03:24
bettspBurgwork: Fat clients?03:24
Burgworkthen you only need to setup one computer03:24
bettspBurgwork: Well, none of the machines in the lab have any real power, the best we've got is like 1.4 GHz with maybe 30GB or so disk03:25
Burgworkhowever, for setting up ldap, you need to see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LDAPClientAuthentication and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenLDAPServer03:25
Burgworkthat is fine03:25
Burgworkfat clients do all the computing locally03:25
bettspOk, that sounds like exactly what I want actually03:26
bettspWhen is this spec implemented as-of?03:27
Burgwork5.10, although it takes a bit of setup todo03:27
bettspBurgwork: Ok, so it's not brand-new by any means03:28
bettspBurgwork: This is awesome, thanks very much for your help03:29
Burgworkno worries03:31

LaserJocksize for one I think08:13
BhaskarLaserJock, so need to add package after installation08:13
LaserJockhmm?08:13
LaserJockyou said the LiveCD08:13
BhaskarLaserJock, i mean i have install edubuntu from live CD, then LTSP installation process?08:15
LaserJockyou could do that08:15
LaserJockbut you are better off installing from the server disk08:15
BhaskarLaserJock, i want to know LTSP package is not included on that CD, then i need to download LTSP package then install ya?08:16
LaserJockyeah08:16
BhaskarLaserJock, so LTSP package for Ubuntu , ya08:17
LaserJockyes, you can do that08:18
BhaskarLaserJock, so i need to dl from Tarball image, ya08:19
LaserJockno no08:19
BhaskarLaserJock, how ?08:20
LaserJockyou need to install the ltsp packages from the Ubuntu repositry08:20
BhaskarLaserJock, sudo apt-get install ltsp-server-standalone openssh-server08:20
LaserJocksounds about right08:20
=== LaserJock is now known as Laser_away
BhaskarLaser_away,  it takes a lots time coz low bandwidth, i suggest LTSP package should be integrated on CD/DVD as K12ltsp integrated in Fedora core08:22
BhaskarLaser_away, for edubuntu, ya08:23
bimberiBhaskar: it's on the Edubuntu Server CD08:24

Bhaskarbimberi, so for Server CD image?08:32
bimberiBhaskar: edubuntu-6.06.1-install-i386.iso has a text mode installer that will install the ltsp server08:32

juliuxpips1, hehe11:30
SiCkhey , juliux, about that nfs jobbie... i have /etc/exports set to rw , etc and nfs is restarted, yet on my client i'm getting ' read-only filesystem '11:30
SiCkwhen i try and run anything really11:30
SiCkllike it wont mount to the server for some reason :|11:31
juliuxdid you restarted nfs-common or nfs-kernel-server via init.d?11:31
SiCkyep, both!11:31
juliuxand you have write permissions on the path on the server?11:32
SiCkand ltsp-client-setup rw_dirs has been commented out11:32
SiCkum, should do!11:32
SiCki think :s11:32
SiCker, copy_dirs even, not rw_dirs11:32
SiCkthe other copydirs that is in the file is copy_dirs="$copy_dirs /etc/X11 /var/lib/x11"11:33
SiCkso those should be accessible by the client you're saying?11:33
ograSiCk, you only want to write to /home/kiosk ... so make sure to get that writeable ;)11:34
SiCkright, there's that sorted11:35
SiCki think...11:35
SiCki was just wondering ogra, in ltsp-client-setup, i have 3 instances of copy_dirs , should they all be commented? or should it be okay?11:36
ograonly the one that refers to /home11:37
SiCkgood good11:37
ogramake sure /home/kiosk is really owned by kiosk and that its rw for the user11:37
SiCkthere's no way of doing that from the server no? do that on the client?11:38
SiCksince kiosk is only a user on the client chroot11:38
=== highvoltage [n=highvolt@196.1.61.16] has joined #edubuntu
ograyou can do it with the chroot command as well as directly on the client if your nfs export is readwrite...11:40

SiCkis it a bad idea to have copy_dirs as just /04:32
ograif you have the time to wait until your whole system got copied into memory ...04:32
