I am using ubuntu 9.10 (karmic). I held off upgrading because of some concerns with moving to 10 immediately, including some issues with ldap e.g. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sudo/+bug/423252. I plan to update production servers to 10 over the Christmas holidays after getting a test server fully operational at 10. With school opening next week, I won't have that done till mid-Sept.
I know that when I first tried to get ldap working with 9.10, it didn't ... I had to use purge to completely remove the packages and then load them a second time. I found the following brief discussion of DRI and how to disable it: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ltsp/+bug/558726 Sincerely, Dave Hopkins On Fri, Aug 20, 2010 at 2:22 AM, Mattias Hemmingsson <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi > > Yes i had everthing working fine in ubuntu 8.04 > But when i installed the new ubuntu 10.04 i cant logg in. > The user can loggin with ssh but not throw the gdm. > > I onlyt get the unnown user error id. > And i have tiried almost everything. > > Are you using ubuntu 10.04 ? > > > // Matte > > > ----- Ursprungligt meddelande ----- > Från: "David Hopkins" <[email protected]> > Till: "Mattias Hemmingsson" <[email protected]>, > [email protected], "Edubuntu Users List" > <[email protected]> > Skickat: fredag, 20 aug 2010 1:18:41 > Ämne: Re: lucid unown user id LTSP user cant loggin > > On Thu, Aug 19, 2010 at 9:15 AM, Mattias Hemmingsson <[email protected]> wrote: >> Hi >> >> I have 4 ltsp server running lucid staddning. >> But non of my ldap users can loggin to the servers. >> The servers dump and unown user id and then sends the user back to loggin. >> >> I have done som search and it seams to be cousing by somthing called DRI. >> And I also find a buf saying that its not possible to turn dri off on the >> lts.conf file on lucid. >> And that you have to set upp your own xorg.con file. >> >> >> So i tried all this but still my users can logged in. >> Is there any one using lucid with ltsp ans ldap and that has an working >> solution for this problem? >> > > Matte, > > I also use LDAP (Openldap).
