Hi guys!!! It finally works!!! Wohooooooo!!! Following Harry's suggestion to use kdm/kde/konqueror, the problems still persisted. I began to be very very frustrated. I ferociously refreshed the konqueror screen on the /misc/ and then.... it showed! The ws001cd icon! But I couldnt see the content. I looked into the /var/log/messages, the problems still the same though: automount[10344]: mount(generic): failed to mount //ws001/cdrom (type smbfs) on /misc/ws001cd automount[10344]: failed to mount /misc/ws001cd automount[10347]: >> Error connecting to 192.168.1.27 (Connection refused) automount[10347]: >> 10349: Connection to ws001 failed automount[10347]: >> SMB connection failed (I even change the host name to ws001 in order to match the tutorial) Out of frustration, I looked into my lts.conf, and decided to change these lines: from: LOCAL_DEVICE_01 = /dev/fd0:floppy (notice the spaces after 01) LOCAL_DEVICE_02 = /dev/hdc:cdrom (notice the spaces after 02) to: LOCAL_DEVICE_01=/dev/fd0:floppy (no spaces) LOCAL_DEVICE_02=/dev/hdc:cdrom (no spaces) I rebooted the workstation, and I widened my eyes when on the fast scrolling screen, I saw that the floppy module was loaded! And.. anxiously logon to kde and opened konqueror, I saw the drives folder in my Home! Yippiiii! Then I browse into it, and saw the icon was a file. So, I know there's a workaround for this, so I opened the shell session and did ls -l /tmp/drives/cdrom, and it mounted!! Yes!! So did the floppy. In /var/log/messages: fc4 mount.smbfs[4000]: mount.smbfs: entering daemon mode for service \\ws001.test.kom\drives, pid=4000 Out of curiousity, I rebooted my server into gdm/gnome (it is required by my office), and it still works!! I tested it by copying a file into the floppy and it's copied. Yes! Yes! Yes! (pls pardon me for my happiness). I'm not sure whether the spaces in my lts.conf caused that, though. Above all, I want to thank you Jim and the LTSP team for developing this wonderful solution. I had working with LTSP3 before (but short of stop because of local device problems) and I must say that it's getting better and awesome in this latest release. Rock on LTSP! I'm going to write an article about this in http://linux2.arinet.org Thank you very much. -- Fajar Priyanto | Reg'd Linux User #327841 | http://linux2.arinet.org 14:40:09 up 3 min, Mandrakelinux release 10.2 (Limited Edition 2005) for i586 public key: https://www.arinet.org/fajar-pub.key ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf _____________________________________________________________________ Ltsp-discuss mailing list.
