So you first log into an admin account on the server and set up every printer on campus. Then you create the /etc/ltsp-printers.conf file based on the names assigned to the printers created. Where does the $LTSP_CLIENT variable come from? I tried simply typing the $LTSP_CLIENT at the command line of a Edubuntu client and received command not found. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by the Cotter Technology Department, and is believed to be clean. -- edubuntu-users mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/edubuntu-users
