[18:52] <TheProf> Hello - I hope everyone is doing well.  I'm setting up a new edubuntu server now.  I have two network cards and I'd like to know which of them is faster/better so I can assign it to be the LTSP NIC.
[18:52] <TheProf> Both are gigabit cards.  One is an on-board, the other is a PCI card.
[18:52] <TheProf> Just getting the specifics now.
[18:55] <TheProf> The PCI card is: Intel 82541G gigabit controller
[18:56] <TheProf> The onboard is: RTL8111/8168B PCI express gigabit controller
[19:09] <stgraber> use the intel one for the thin clients
[19:09] <TheProf> stgraber, Thanks for your response -- is that the case even if it is a regular PCI card as opposed to the PCI express RTL?
[19:11] <stgraber> TheProf: the PCI bus speed is over a gigabit so it shouldn't matter
[19:11] <TheProf> stgraber, awesome.  Thanks very much!
[19:12] <stgraber> np
[20:13] <TheProf> stgraber, One more question please.  Right now eth0 is Internet and eth1 is LTSP.  How do I switch the NICs so that they are the other way?
[20:14] <stgraber> you can change /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and reboot
[20:16] <TheProf> OK I will try that now.
[21:08] <TheProf> stgraber, Great the NIC swap worked  - thank you!
[22:37] <TheProf> So I'm back with one more question -- got the Edubuntu 11.04 installed and configured on the server and tweaked all nicely.  Plugged it into a switch with a thin client, but the PXE boot on the thin client fails!
[22:38] <TheProf> It just searches for a DHCP and never connects.  This is a stock installation of edubuntu and previously with version 10 it worked wonderfully so I'm wondering what I am missing?
[22:45] <TheProf> OK I think I've narrowed it down a bit.  I had to switch the network cards and I did so as stgraber recommended earlier.  I think that the dhcpd service is still listening on the wrong NIC
[22:46] <TheProf> I'm getting a syslog error when I try to run isc-dhcp-server that it is suppose to ignore requests on this interface
[22:49] <TheProf> But I do not know where to change this?
