ychouchanethanls to u12:55
ychouchanecan u have forum to help us please?12:59
ychouchane\join #ltsp13:01
ychouchanesorry13:01
highvoltageychouchane: in the installer you can choose your primary card, you just have to confirm that you actually want to use it13:06
ychouchanehighvoltage, i think i have choose my eth013:06
ychouchanebut i give his adress ip13:06
ychouchaneand we can connect on the network13:07
ychouchanehighvoltage, i have start my edubuntu 12.04 server13:29
ychouchanecan u explain how i can configurer this please ?13:30
highvoltageychouchane: what's the contents of your /etc/network/interfaces file? that's where your network settings are configured.13:33
alkisghighvoltage: btw we have some python code in sch-scripts that creates a static network connection using the dbus interface of network-manager, do you think edubuntu could use something similar?13:35
alkisg(in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections)13:35
ychouchanehighvoltage, -> http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/406/ychatychouchanefreenode.jpg/13:35
highvoltagealkisg: I was actually wondering if we could do something more network-managery13:41
highvoltageychouchane: ok, so with that you should have LTSP, but no other network access right?13:41
highvoltageychouchane: did you usually have eth0 configured with dhcp?13:42
ychouchaneno13:42
ychouchanei have an other dhcp13:42
ychouchaneand i can change it by edubuntu13:42
alkisghighvoltage: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ts.sch.gr/sch-scripts/trunk/view/head:/sch-scripts/ip_dialog.py and http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ts.sch.gr/sch-scripts/trunk/view/head:/sch-scripts/ip_dialog.ui13:42
alkisgAnd a picture of it running, ts.sch.gr/wiki/File:Ip_dialog.png13:42
ychouchanei need the other dhcp13:42
ychouchanebut i want connect other machine to the ltps edubuntu13:42
highvoltageychouchane: ok, when you install ltsp on edubuntu, it also sets up a dhcp server13:43
ychouchaneto do that i need my ltps edubuntu don't be a dhcp server just a ltps13:43
ychouchanewe don't have choice, edubuntu have a dhcp server by default ?13:43
highvoltageychouchane: yes... if you chose ltsp on the installer13:47
highvoltageychouchane: you can disable it by:13:47
highvoltageychouchane: sudo service isc-dhcp-server stop13:47
highvoltageychouchane: sudo mv /etc/init/isc-dhcp-server /etc/init/isc-dhcp-server.disabled13:47
highvoltageychouchane: to get the info that you need to add to your other dhcp server, you could check the /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf file13:48
highvoltageI *think* there's a section in the LTSP manual for using an external dhcp server13:48
ychouchanehighvoltage, i think i dont understand wath exactly is ltps13:49
ychouchanei think i compar it by a windows server tse13:49
ychouchanesystem13:49
ychouchaneso why u need a dhcp to use ltps13:49
ychouchanei want some client with boot with other dcp but connect on my edubutun to use application o it13:50
highvoltageychouchane: so, with ltsp, a machine boot over the network without requiring any hard disk or local media13:50
highvoltageychouchane: so you need to run dhcp in order to provide information like what the machine's IP address is, where to get a kernel/initramfs, which remote filesystem to mount and which application server to connect to13:51
highvoltageychouchane: so you want desktops that already installed to connect to a session on the edubuntu machine?13:51
ychouchanewell in fact i have this on my parc --> o you want desktops that already installed to connect to a session on the edubuntu machine?13:52
ychouchanesorry13:52
ychouchanei have this Pc --> http://www.axel.com/fr2/id_M80F.html13:52
ychouchaneand som windows Xp and 7 pc13:52
ychouchanei know i will make a dia graphique of what i want13:52
highvoltageychouchane: yeah it doesn't seem to mention which cpu and how much ram it has. so I can't say for sure whether it would work for ltsp.13:54
highvoltageychouchane: ok :)13:54
highvoltagetoo bad we don't have a working freerdp server yet. that's probably good for cases like these.13:55
highvoltagestgraber: heh, we have a deployment that claims to run 12.10 already :)14:02
stgraberhighvoltage: that's scary14:02
highvoltagestgraber: I guess they just chose the highest version, perhaps it should have "(development version)" next to 12.10 or perhaps the development versions should just not be shown on the dropdown list yet14:07
highvoltagealkisg: are you up for an edubuntu google+ hangout some time?14:13
highvoltagealkisg: we want to do more of them to cover some topics14:13
highvoltagealkisg: I think we should do one on 25 July to talk about tablets and our short/long-term goals there14:14
alkisgAh, that sounds better, cause today I'm a bit preoccupied with some stuff14:14
alkisgGetting some paperwork done, getting ready for vacations etc14:14
alkisgDo google+ hangouts involve headsets?14:15
highvoltagecool14:15
highvoltageyou can use headsets or just your built-in speaker/microphone if you have one14:15
highvoltagebut yes, it involves video/audio14:15
alkisgCool, got both14:15
highvoltagealkisg, stgraber, mgariepy: Is July 25 17:00 UTC good for you?14:16
stgraberhighvoltage: yep, that should work for me14:16
* alkisg can't say for sure, as he hasn't programmed his vacations fullly yet, but it sounds ok14:17
alkisgMaybe I'll be talking to you from some hotel near a beach... no harm there :D14:18
highvoltagealkisg: ok, I'll schedule it so long and hopes that it gives you enough time to plan around :)14:18
highvoltagealkisg: yeah that would be cool!14:18
ychouchaneso one this pictuse u can see my TSE system with microsoft --> http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/688/linuxtse.jpg/ And i want add a LTPS on my network14:19
ychouchaneso i want people connect on the ltsp to make internet java application, and internet14:19
ychouchanehighvoltage, sorry i do it fast14:20
ychouchaneit's not perfect14:20
ychouchaneon the first picture is a network with a windows server tse14:20
ychouchaneand on the picture is what i want do14:20
ychouchaneadd a ltsp on my network14:20
ychouchanewith one ethernet card and i want connect my client on it14:21
ychouchanelike rdp do it14:21
ychouchanewhat do u think please14:21
alkisgychouchane: do you want to boot your clients to LTSP, or just to connect to it while the clients are booted to windows?14:25
ychouchanei want ùy client connect to it while the client are booted to windows14:25
ychouchaneor other os14:25
alkisgWhat other OS?14:26
ychouchanebecause my axel x80f have is OS14:26
alkisgIf you don't want to boot the clients with Linux, they you don't want LTSP14:26
ychouchanealkisg, the other os is the os my the Axel x80f14:26
ychouchane:/14:26
alkisgTo connect to a Linux desktop from a Windows client, a good option is x2go14:26
ychouchaneso ltps not for my need14:26
alkisgLTSP is for booting linux over the local network14:26
alkisgFrom there, you can connect to windows with rdesktop or to the linux ltsp server14:27
ychouchaneok alkisg thanks14:27
alkisgSo LTSP is fine for you if you want to boot your clients with a small linux OS and *then* use rdesktop for windows and LDM for linux14:27
ychouchaneso and of the story fot ltsp for me14:27
alkisgBut if you want your clients to boot to windows e.g. locally, then LTSP isn't for you14:28
ychouchanethe probleme i have many of th axelx80f14:28
alkisgychouchane: do your clients have hard disks?14:28
alkisg...I mean, local OS?14:28
ychouchanei don't  think he can boot on the network14:28
ychouchaneno14:29
alkisgHow are they booted then?14:29
ychouchanehe boot herself14:29
ychouchanealkisg, i have this --> http://www.axel.com/fr2/id_M80F.html14:30
mgariepyhighvoltage, july 25 isn't good for me. i'll be on vacation.14:30
alkisgAll your clients are like that one?14:30
ychouchanei have some wize14:31
ychouchanebut many of this axelx80f14:31
highvoltagemgariepy: ok, I'll make sure to plan the following topic where we talk about servers on a time that you can be there14:31
alkisgychouchane: it looks like it can boot from the network14:32
alkisgSo yeah, it looks fine for LTSP14:33
ychouchanealkisg, good things14:36
ychouchaneso now i need to found how configure a ltps server iwth dhcp from windows14:36
alkisgThat's documented in the wiki14:37
alkisghttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/LTSPWindowsDHCP14:37
alkisgEither that, or https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/ProxyDHCP14:37
alkisgBoth will work, if you can change the windows DHCP configuration go with the first one, if you cannot, then the second one14:38
highvoltageooh, in drupal 7 you can finally approve comments without having to go to some awkward admin page for that14:38
stgraberalkisg: can we convince you to add the greek schools to http://www.edubuntu.org/deployments ? :)15:59
alkisgstgraber: I thought we're going to have a global map in ltsp.org, aren't we?15:59
alkisgOnce we do, I'll inform the schools (we don't add them ourselves in case they don't want to)16:00
highvoltageI guess that would be for ltsp deployments specifically (not all the edubuntu ones are ltsp)16:00
highvoltageand that would probably only go up once the ltsp website is up16:00
highvoltagethat could still be years16:00
highvoltage(sorry bad joke)16:00
alkisgMakes sense... but all deployments here are LTSP ones, not sure what percentage uses edubuntu16:00
alkisgHehe Hyperbyte heard that? ^ :DS16:00
highvoltagealkisg: could the people at the schools add it perhaps? perhaps you could link it from the forums?16:03
alkisgI can put a link in the forum, sure16:03
highvoltagecool :)17:33
