i have a lot of questions, maybe you've got some answers. I've got the following setup : 1 central server ( linux ) , 17 servers ( LTSP ) on different locations, where each server has a number of thinclients connected to it ( max 6 ) The central server / 17 LTSP servers are on the internet and share 1 VPN ( freeswan ). It would be nice if the 17 LTSP servers could use asterix on one way or another ( the central server is on a distant location , serves as a VPN gateway ). - asterix on the LTSP s...

Hi all, I've been fighting with joining my samba server (debian) to my active directory domain for 4 days now. The problem here is that users in my active directory domain on windows machines are not able to browse my samba shares without being prompted for authentication. I can: - Join the domain from samba server using net ads - View list of tickets when brownsing window shares with

Is anyone doing this or has anyone tried? The thin clients are running WindowsCE, a browser, and 300mhz. They are Wyse units. I wonder if anyone has any practical advise or can recommend the best phone or method to load a stable softphone on one of these boxes? Thanks, Steve Totaro

Has there been any Blogs or other discussions about Java Applets vs JavaScript? If appears (and I stress "appears") that JavaScript is getting the attention due to Googles use of AJAX and Java Applets do not have the same popularity. The reason I ask is that I have contemplated trying my hand at some Applets for my client as well as using some inline Java in Web pages. Any

Hello all, Please send a Cc: to me in addition to the list. I am not subscribed and this will make it easier for me to follow the thread and reply. Thanks. My scenary is as follows: I have a Linux server with OpenSSH 3.7.1p2 installed and this server acting as an LTSP. Some PCs (all Pentium+ classes) acting as X-Terminals connects to this server via PXE boot --> DHCP --> booting

...r authorization purposes. I am not sure if I understand completely or if I described the requirements accordingly. The department uses Thin Clients to access (a) the company networks/servers and (b) its own protected LAN (behind a firewall run by me) with some specific servers and VMs. So the thinclients are primarily domain members in the domain "BigFatCompany" and would have to be members in the domain "ProtectedServers" as well. I think that second ADS complicates everything, at least in relation to the rather small benefits. We don't want to set up any trust betwee...

Hello, Not sure if and how this works... question is: I would like to have a dual-boot scenario where pxelinux boots a linux based thinclient per default and the possibility to optional boot a ms-dos pxe image. The faq says it's possible to boot dos from pxelinux but there is no clear how-to (it least I cold not find it). Any help is appreciated. kind regards, Dirk __________________________________________________________________...

Hello All, I set up ltsp regulary, on Centos6 machines. This morning I have a Selinux problem that usualy does not occur: after setting everything up, the thinclients boot, but nobody can login. It only works after the command : # echo 0 > /selinux/enforce I tried this semanage command: # semanage fcontext -a -t bin_t /usr/bin/xauth but it makes no difference.

...t I was told that since they use a FPU, they can not run DarkIce. It also won't power up after a power failure unless you hack the hardware. Does anyone know of anything equivalent to the NSLU2 that will work for a "dumb" pc like that? Would I be ok going with older and cheaper ThinClients? I'm looking at deploying a fair number of these boxes, so I can't spend $300 each. I was really hoping to keep it on the cheap and around $50 a box.

If you search the net, someone supposedly did this through wine on Redhat. When i tried to install i would instantly get a please reboot message. I tried wineboot, wineserver -k. I must have done a rm -rf ~/.wine a bunch when winetricks was getting checksum errors on the files. Also i checked the registry to make sure certain keys were not there. Looking in the installation log, there might

Hello Everyone, I'm running a dhcp server on CentOS 4.4. It's providing IPs and remote booting for a number of thin clients. I've recently had problems rebooting a few thin clients.

Hi, I've been using pxe-enabled nic's with an lzpxe-etherboot image generated by rom-o-matic.net to boot a ltsp.org kernel, with dhcp 3 to use if statements to determine which filename option he gives to the pxe/etherboot dhcp client.Explained at http://www.ltsp.org/documentation/pxe.howto.html This works perfectly, except for the fact that you can't use 1 etherboot pxe image for
