Re: Ok...I'm back...Autologin and shutting down/rebooting thin-clients remotely

I would setup ssh-server in the thin client chroot and then copy the ssh pub key from your ltsp server to the chroot and add it to .ssh/authorized_keys in the chroot rebuild the image and then you should be able to ssh in from server without issue and run any command --- Regards Dean

I must say that the move from 7.04 to 8.04 has been very disappointing. I have 8 HP t5125 which are 400MHz 128MB ram machines. They ran perfectly under 7.04 avoiding heavy websites. Under 8.04 they are useless if the user starts multitasking , i.e. having an open office document open , email

I am currently running ubuntu ltsp 7.04 I was wondering what the best approach might be to get to ubuntu 8.04 1. Should I upgrade to 7.10 using the upgrade manager and then upgrade to 8.04 using the same or 2. Should I somehow upgrade to 8.04 using the alternate cd etc or 3.??? Any suggestions
