[Ltsp-discuss] Reference for lts.conf and dhcpd.conf
Hello, I once have a short encounter with LTSP 4.0 2-3 years ago. Very impressive. Now comes opportunity to me to implement LTSP 5. I use ubuntu Feisty 7.04 and the level of integration is fascinating. Bravo to LTSP and Ubuntu team. However, I notice that the default lts.conf is now without any comment/example? Also the dhcpd.conf. Where can I get any reference/url for lts.conf and dhcpd.conf for LTSP 5? All I've found so far from google is for LTSP 4.x.

People have reported getting NX to work on LTSP clients. It does seem to take about 35 more seconds to resume a connection with NX. VNCServer can be rigged to offer the same sort of session persistence. There are lots of tools out there for different jobs. -Joe - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

[Ltsp-discuss] LTSP5 and Dynamic DNS
Hello guys, I have a running LTSP5 on Feisty. Yesterday, I experimented on setting up Dynamic DNS update by the DHCP. It works! :) I tested by booting up my non-LTSP client, and the DNS record got updated by DHCP. However, not so successful with LTSP client. The LTSP client got bootup, searching for DHCP, got IP, running TFTP, and got time out finding the TFTP server. I think I've got an obvious mistake, but I cannot figure it out yet. Googling hasn't yield any solution. Has anyone got Dynamic DNS with LTSP? Any clue/url will be great. This is my dhcpd.conf (I use the standard one from LTSP5 and then adding some lines at the top): authoritative; server-identifier acerubuntu; ddns-updateson; ddns-update-style interim; ddns-domainname pluto.com.; ddns-rev-domainname in-addr.arpa.; ignore client-updates; include /etc/bind/rndc-remote.key; zone pluto.com. { primary 10.0.0.17; key rndc-remote; } subnet 10.0.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 { range 10.0.0.50 10.0.0.60; option domain-name pluto.com; option domain-name-servers 10.0.0.17; option broadcast-address 10.0.0.255; option routers 10.0.0.254; option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0; if substring( option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 9 ) = PXEClient { filename /ltsp/i386/pxelinux.0; } else{ filename /ltsp/i386/nbi.img; } option root-path /opt/ltsp/i386; } And my named.conf: acl rndc-users { 10.0.0.29/32; }; key rndc-remote { algorithm hmac-md5; secret FCB7+bECYF2Gs//nFPxhBA==; }; key rndc-key { algorithm hmac-md5; secret qAmZciCbn3CrGIMN2IeDxg==; }; controls { inet 127.0.0.1 port 953 allow { 127.0.0.1; } keys { rndc-key; }; inet 10.0.0.17 allow { rndc-users; } keys { rndc-remote; }; }; zone pluto.com { type master; file /etc/bind/zones/pluto.com.db; allow-update { key rndc-remote; }; }; zone 17.0.0.10.in-addr.arpa { type master; file /etc/bind/zones/17.0.0.10.in-addr.arpa; allow-update { key rndc-remote; }; }; Thank you very much. -- Fajar Priyanto | Reg'd Linux User #327841 | Linux tutorial http://linux2.arinet.org 9:14am up 1:02, 2.6.18.2-34-default GNU/Linux Let's use OpenOffice. http://www.openoffice.org pgpRQ7jSEG8P1.pgp Description: PGP signature - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

Hello Sudev, Sorry for confusing you with the term. What I mean by Dynamic DNS is that we can set DHCP server to update the DNS record dynamically. So, when I boot a client, it will get an IP address from DHCP server, and then DHCP server will contact the DNS server in our network to update the A and PTR record in DNS server for the just booted client.

On the contrary, by using dynamically updated DNS server from DHCP, we don't need to maintain the ip - hostname, and hostname - ip tables anymore. The DNS and DHCP will work together to provide hostname and ip resolution. It's still interesting though, to know whether the scenario is possible for LTSP setup. -- Fajar Priyanto | Reg'd Linux User #327841 | Linux tutorial http://linux2.arinet.org 12:53pm up 4:41, 2.6.18.2-34-default GNU/Linux Let's use OpenOffice. http://www.openoffice.org pgpt3bDJSt4hc.pgp Description: PGP signature - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

Re: [Ltsp-discuss] How to prevent user from shutting down the server?
Hi Fajar, If you do use KDE, you can enter KControl, option System Administration, then Login Manager, Admin Mode. Open Shutdown tab, and in field Allow Shutdown/Local, choose Only root. [The option names may be different, as my KDE isn't in english] There must be a similar setting on gnome, also. 2007/7/21, Fajar Priyanto [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi all, When a user click on the Log off button, then click Shutdown, the LTSP5 server got shutdown!
