I tried something new yesterday when problem happened again. This is what I did:
-- With Epoptes tool I shut down all of the computers that were showing in the 'detected clients' window. -- Computer "9A" wouldn't shut down, remaining in the detected clients window. -- I went over to the client to check it out and saw that the small green power light on the computer was on, however, even though the display should therefore have been on, it was dark. -- I checked the logs for previous few days and nothing unusual about that client, just 3 very ordinary entries. -- I had tail command on the epoptes log as I powered down the client (client is 192.168.67.175)... :~$ tail -f /var/log/epoptes.log 2016-06-03 17:36:24-0500 [DelimitedBashReceiver (TLSMemoryBIOProtocol),359,192.168.67.231] Connection lost: 192.168.67.231:33679 2016-06-03 17:36:24-0500 [DelimitedBashReceiver (TLSMemoryBIOProtocol),360,192.168.67.153] Connection lost: 192.168.67.153:53229 2016-06-03 17:36:24-0500 [DelimitedBashReceiver (TLSMemoryBIOProtocol),361,192.168.67.239] Connection lost: 192.168.67.239:41613 2016-06-03 17:36:24-0500 [DelimitedBashReceiver (TLSMemoryBIOProtocol),362,192.168.67.106] Connection lost: 192.168.67.106:42457 2016-06-03 17:36:24-0500 [twisted.protocols.tls.TLSMemoryBIOFactory] Connected: 192.168.67.195:42284 2016-06-03 17:36:24-0500 [DelimitedBashReceiver (TLSMemoryBIOProtocol),363,192.168.67.195] Connection lost: 192.168.67.195:42284 2016-06-03 17:36:24-0500 [twisted.protocols.tls.TLSMemoryBIOFactory] Connected: 192.168.67.115:44655 2016-06-03 17:36:25-0500 [twisted.protocols.tls.TLSMemoryBIOFactory] Connected: 192.168.67.102:55488 2016-06-03 17:36:25-0500 [DelimitedBashReceiver (TLSMemoryBIOProtocol),365,192.168.67.102] Connection lost: 192.168.67.102:55488 2016-06-03 17:36:25-0500 [DelimitedBashReceiver (TLSMemoryBIOProtocol),364,192.168.67.115] Connection lost: 192.168.67.115:44655 2016-06-03 17:44:04-0500 [-] Ping timeout: 192.168.67.175:56049 ... as the client disappeared from the detected clients window. This is the first time I've seen anything out of the ordinary in the epoptes logs. Not sure if this is relevant. Anywhere else I should check? I do have other epoptes log results from a week ago but as I mentioned, it doesn't look like there's anything out of the ordinary. It probably won't happen again as school's almost over for the year. Let me know any other place to check, I've got times to check in other logs.

It would be nice in this situation of a re-boot message were somehow sent, or at least this client not be shown in the epoptes window as a connected client (with which no interaction seems possible) Here's some log data for an example client that I gathered: untitled text:260: 2016-05-12 10:43:18-0500 [twisted.protocols.tls.TLSMemoryBIOFactory] Connected: 192.168.67.77:44231 untitled text:267: 2016-05-12 10:44:10-0500 [twisted.protocols.tls.TLSMemoryBIOFactory] Connected: 192.168.67.77:39113 untitled text:270: 2016-05-12 10:44:40-0500 [twisted.protocols.tls.TLSMemoryBIOFactory] Connected: 192.168.67.77:39172 untitled text:287: 2016-05-12 10:57:17-0500 [DelimitedBashReceiver (TLSMemoryBIOProtocol),136,192.168.67.77] Connection lost: 192.168.67.77:39172 untitled text:287: 2016-05-12 10:57:17-0500 [DelimitedBashReceiver (TLSMemoryBIOProtocol),136,192.168.67.77] Connection lost: 192.168.67.77:39172 untitled text:367: 2016-05-12 13:19:14-0500 [twisted.protocols.tls.TLSMemoryBIOFactory] Connected: 192.168.67.77:39232 untitled text:510: 2016-05-13 10:24:24-0500 [-] Ping timeout: 192.168.67.77:39232 untitled text:511: 2016-05-13 10:24:29-0500 [-] Ping timeout: 192.168.67.77:39113 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/epoptes/+bug/1581581/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~epoptes Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~epoptes More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
