| Ahmuck-Sr | i'm trying to boot another set of ltsp clients to see how well they work, however they don't have a pxe boot option which means i'll have to create a etherboot cdrom. any hints | 00:53 |

| Ahmuck-Sr | i need to find the chipset of a thin client | 01:10 |

| vmlintu | highvoltage: hi, I wrote about the ldap+kerberos thoughts in edubuntu-devel and also went through the old blueprints.. | 13:09 |
| highvoltage | vmlintu: great! I'll get to my email in just a few moments, I saw yesterday on the debian-edu list that they're discussing kerberos too | 13:39 |
| === ogra_ is now known as ogra | ||
| vmlintu | highvoltage: ok, I'll have a look at debian-edu | 13:58 |
| vmlintu | highvoltage: it seems like in debian-edu the plans are more or less same that we are working on right now | 14:08 |
| vmlintu | There's also talk about laptop authentication with pam-ccreds etc. We tried those, but there were quite a few problems. Now it looks like sssd from fedoraproject is the solution to this | 14:09 |
| vmlintu | There's more information about sssd here: http://www.opinsys.fi/user-management-with-sssd-on-shared-laptops | 14:10 |
| vmlintu | Basically it makes ldap/kerberos work also offline with minimum hassle. We are now testing it in one school and so far everything looks really good. | 14:10 |
| highvoltage | vmlintu: sounds great, I wonder if the debian-edu guys are aware of it | 14:21 |
| vmlintu | highvoltage: I think debian doesn't have sssd packaged, but it's in ubuntu | 14:22 |
| vmlintu | I just subscribed to debian-edu | 14:23 |
| vmlintu | We are now using sssd on lucid against our ldap/kerberos infrastructure running hardy | 14:23 |
| highvoltage | vmlintu: perhaps if debian-edu finds sssd useful they could get it into debian | 14:33 |
| vmlintu | I could only recommend that | 14:34 |
| highvoltage | yep, it's entirely up to them, would just be nice to have the implementations more or less similar if possible | 14:35 |
| vmlintu | sssd is part of the FreeIPA project that many blueprints suggested as a solution for user management in Ubuntu | 14:36 |
| vmlintu | http://www.freeipa.org/ | 14:36 |
| highvoltage | vmlintu: will look at it a bit later, currently in the middle of fixing some release bugs :) | 14:38 |
| vmlintu | good to get those fixed | 14:38 |
| vmlintu | I'll be online most of the evening | 14:39 |
| highvoltage | ok great | 14:49 |
| sbalneav | Morning all | 14:59 |
| vmlintu | evening | 15:00 |
| highvoltage | greetings sbalneav | 15:09 |

| jongbergs | !hi | 16:06 |
| ubottu | Hi! Welcome to #edubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! | 16:06 |
| jongbergs | hi, i forgot to install italc during edubuntu installation, how do i install it from directly from dvd? | 16:08 |
| alkisg | jongbergs: you can just install it from synaptic like any other package... | 16:09 |
| sbalneav | Assuming you've got the dvd lines in your apt's sources.list, just installing it from synaptic should work | 16:10 |
| sbalneav | doh | 16:10 |
| sbalneav | alkisg: beat me to it :) | 16:10 |
| alkisg | :) | 16:10 |
| jongbergs | alkisg, sbalneav : thanks for the tip guys, i should verify first whether the dvd is in the list.. | 16:16 |
| alkisg | jongbergs: if you have internet access you don't need to bother with the dvd - just double click it on synaptic... | 16:16 |
| jongbergs | alkisg: this computer do not have internet access..will this work? | 16:17 |
| alkisg | It should - give it a try... | 16:18 |
| jongbergs | alkisg: ok i'll give it a try..tell u back how it works out..thanks again | 16:19 |
| bencrisford | highvoltage: did you get my ping yesterday about the teams blueprint? should I add it to the meeting agenda | 18:38 |
| vmlintu | highvoltage: should I do something else about the wishlist stuff besides posting to the list? | 19:02 |
| sbalneav | How the heck do we turn off all the super-duper chatty help dialogs that keep popping up in the lower right?! | 19:04 |
| sbalneav | On my fresh testing install here, it's noisy as heck, but on my home box, nada :) | 19:04 |
| bencrisford | sbalneav: chatty help dialogs? | 19:07 |
| vmlintu | I've yet to see those too.. | 19:08 |
| bencrisford | highvoltage: did you get my ping about getting my ping :P? | 19:14 |
| bencrisford | you disconnected 3 seconds after i sent | 19:14 |
| bencrisford | so i assumed not | 19:14 |
| bencrisford | "did you get my ping yesterday about the teams blueprint? should I add it to the meeting agenda" - that one | 19:15 |
| vmlintu | sbalneav: as you've been doing ldap related things before, do you have plans for 10.10 in that front? | 19:18 |
| sbalneav | vmlintu: Yes, hopefully | 19:22 |
| vmlintu | sbalneav: I remember there was a spec for user management tool, but I couldn't find it anymore | 19:26 |
| vmlintu | If there are plans on this front, I'd be really interested in seeing if I can help somewhere. | 19:29 |
| vmlintu | I wrote about our needs on edubuntu-devel and I understand that not everyone is facing the problems, but I hope that different use cases don't end up using incompatible solutions | 19:30 |
| highvoltage | vmlintu: posting to the list is fine, it's early days so it's more of a brainstorming phase atm. thanks! | 19:34 |
| highvoltage | bencrisford: no I plugged in a USB disk into my mac mini and it just froze up | 19:34 |
| stgraber | meeting in 15min | 19:46 |
| highvoltage | meeting in 2min | 19:58 |
| bencrisford | highvoltage: okey doke, mind if i say something about that blueprint | 19:59 |
| bencrisford | in the meeting i mean ;) | 20:00 |
| bencrisford | isforinsects: hi | 20:32 |
| highvoltage | isforinsects: specialization is? | 20:45 |
| bencrisford | highvoltage: i forgot to mention in the meeting, a suggestion on the wiki for edubuntu-advocacy to become a member of ubuntu-marketing | 20:46 |
| bencrisford | sounds like a good idea to me, what do you think? | 20:47 |
| highvoltage | bencrisford: I remember at some point there was a decision to just merge edubuntu-advocacy to into ubuntu-marketing... | 20:50 |
| highvoltage | bencrisford: but I don't think it ever happened, I think your suggestion is good it's probably not a bad idea to show the relationship to ubuntu-marketing in LP | 20:50 |
| bencrisford | highvoltage: shall i add edubuntu-advocacy to ubuntu-marketing then? | 21:01 |
| highvoltage | bencrisford: I can't think of a reason not to, my brain doesn't want to brain atm. Yes I think you can go ahead and do that | 21:04 |
| highvoltage | if there's any reason not to someone will probably speak up :) | 21:04 |
| bencrisford | highvoltage: haha, i know what you mean, ive been off school for 2 weeks barely sleeping, and now i'm back at school i seem to have forgotten how to :( | 21:05 |
| bencrisford | ill add the team, and if theres anything wrong with it, like you say, I imagine someone will say something :) | 21:06 |
| highvoltage | yup | 21:08 |
| bencrisford | highvoltage: what was your NerdScore again? | 21:38 |
| highvoltage | bencrisford: 80. | 21:39 |
| highvoltage | bencrisford: I'm surprised it wasn't lower | 21:39 |
| bencrisford | highvoltage: 95 :( | 21:39 |
| highvoltage | hehe :) | 21:39 |
| bencrisford | im too young to be *that* much of a nerd D=, I prefer the word 'geek' personally | 21:40 |
| vmlintu | highvoltage: I'm gonna bug you with one more thing - do you know what would be the best way of contacting the server team about the ldap stuff to know if they have some plans? | 21:41 |
| bencrisford | vmlintu: the ubuntu-server team? | 21:43 |
| bencrisford | i think they're on the #ubuntu-server channel :) | 21:43 |
| * bencrisford finds mailing list | 21:43 | |
| vmlintu | thanks, I'll try there.. the discussion there usually more about lamp than anything else, so it confused me.. | 21:44 |
| bencrisford | ubuntu-server(AT)lists.ubuntu.com - thats the development mailing list i think | 21:45 |
| highvoltage | vmlintu: the ubuntu-server channel is ok, but the best way is really to use the mailing list | 21:45 |
| vmlintu | ok | 21:46 |
| bencrisford | im off for the night | 22:14 |
| bencrisford | see y'all tommorrow | 22:14 |
