[03:05] Hello guys. I have installed edubuntu and ltsp and ltsp client on ec2 image. now I want to connect to the ltsp or use edubuntu [03:05] can i do that [03:09] is it possible accecing it from my windows xp or browser [03:09] Nagarjuna: I'm going to sleep now, but you could do it with vnc [03:09] I need to install vnc? [03:09] Nagarjuna: if you google for a windows vnc client you could find one, and you should be able to find out quite easily how to start vnc on an ubuntu machine [03:10] I heard vnc is insecure? [03:10] yes [03:10] cant i use browser? [03:11] Nagarjuna: you could set up nx, (you could google nx to find it), it gives you something similar to http://edubuntu.org/weblive [03:11] Nagarjuna: but otherwise no, you can't just use a web browser [03:11] ohh [03:11] Thank you so much [03:11] goodnight :) [03:13] good night .. have nice sleep [03:13] Thanks for the kind help [03:14] One last question..do i still need ltsp [03:17] hi daminos [03:32] any one awake? [03:32] :) [03:36] I have set up nx [03:36] and I want to create users [03:36] plz help [05:39] hello [05:39] I have set up nx and I want to create users [05:47] Freenx? And? [05:51] installed nx client on my windows [05:51] I followed [05:51] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX#Installing_the_FreeNX_server_on_Ubuntu_Karmic_.289.10.29_and_higher [05:52] No I dont know how to connect [05:52] it is asking for user [05:52] and password [05:52] I am not sure how to create [05:52] thanks for the help [05:56] To create users, go in gnome-control-center and click on user accounts [05:57] I have terminal access [05:57] so.. [05:57] man adduser [05:57] I am trying to setup nx server and client to access [05:57] But how is all this related to edubuntu? [05:57] group? [05:58] adduser also adds a group [05:58] I installed edubuntu on ec2 ubuntu and I want my son to access it [05:58] so..its just terminal [05:58] I tried itsp [05:58] seems not able to .. [05:58] then someone told me to go got nx [05:58] so I am trying [05:59] if you know something else please tell me [05:59] I told you already, to add users from a terminal you use the adduser command [05:59] my son should be able to access it [05:59] E.g. adduser son [06:00] yes added [06:00] let ne try now [06:01] I don't know how ec2 operates, but it sounds silly to me if it allows edubuntu installation ..without a GUI [06:01] yes [06:02] sudo apt-get install ubuntu-edu-primary [06:03] thats it [06:03] I have done [06:03] So you get an operating system with only SSH access to it? [06:03] but now i want to know how to connect to edubuntu [06:03] I have installed ssh [06:03] sudo apt-get install openssh-server [06:03] Just wondering... how did you connect to ec2 _before_ installing ssh? [06:04] I have java client [06:04] and private file [06:04] key file [06:04] And it gives you access to what, a UI or a console? [06:04] console [06:04] Got it [06:04] java client [06:04] great [06:04] OK, did adduser work for you? [06:04] connection timedout [06:05] it said [06:05] And can you ssh with that username/password? [06:05] not sure [06:05] let me try [06:06] no [06:06] i cant even ping it [06:07] some security setting [06:08] Do you have ec2 support from somewhere, for security settings etc? [06:08] 0 - 65535 sg-ce3a0c9c (default) Delete 22 (SSH) 0.0.0.0/0 Delete 80 (HTTP) 0.0.0.0/0 [06:08] yes [06:08] this it has [06:08] now [06:08] 0 - 65535 sg-ce3a0c9c (default) 22 (SSH) 0.0.0.0/0 80 (HTTP) 0.0.0.0/0 [06:20] hello [06:20] I am back [06:25] No idea? [06:36] Idea on what? How to disable security on ec2? [06:58] I can ping now [06:58] but it says user authentication failed [07:00] i have added the user as you said [07:00] 'but may be some permissions [07:02] If you installed ssh, created a user, and can't login to that, it's an ec2 problem, so you should be asking there for support [07:03] :) [07:10] nxserver --useradd john --system NX> 100 NXSERVER - Version 3.2.0-74-SVN OS (GPL, using backend: 3.5.0) NX> 500 Error: The passdb function is not activated in node.conf. Most probably your FreeNX setup will work out of the box without this functionality and you've been misleaded by an old tutorial or old documentation to do this step. If however you really need this functionality, just set ENABLE_PASSDB_AUTHENTICATION="1" in n [07:12] I don't know why you're using nxserver --useradd etc, I said "adduser son" in the console, it's nothing nx-related [07:14] ok [07:14] that was done [07:14] The next step would be to try to ssh [07:14] If you can't ssh, nx won't work [07:15] If you can't ssh, the problem is ec2 related [07:26] ssh is woring [07:59] i got it [07:59] but its crashing [08:11] freenx is mostly unmaintained, x2go is better maintained === yofel_ is now known as yofel [23:42] hello everyone.
