At school we've just upgraded two thin client servers from the CentOS-powered K12ltsp (incorporating LTSP 4) to the Karmic Koala's LTSP 5. The result is generally well received, although there is some work to remove what appear to be spurious error messages during thin client boot up
However, the IGEL 2110-LX Smart thin client doesn't login any more. It worked perfectly under K12ltsp, and boots up the Koala's LTSP login screen, but on entering username + password the monitor goes blank for about 30 seconds before returning to the login screen. Another thin client connected to the same server works fine. Also, if I select an "xterm" session on the IGEL before logging in, the device goes ahead and presents a usable Xterm. A possibly related question: Clients on both servers are assigned the same names "ltsp100", "ltsp101", etc. even though our DNS servers assign different name ranges. Where are these names coming from? I've Googled and searched the Forums to no avail. Can anyone here shed light?
