Hello, I have a need to run ltsp on a redhat 7.2 server. I downloaded the
latest ltsp release (2.0.9 pre3) and tried to port it to redhat 7.2.
I started this process with the assumption (perhaps an ignorant assumption)
that 7.2 is basically the same as 7.1. So I created a new symlink in the
lts_core directory to link 7.2 to the redhat.sh script ( redhat-7.2.sh ->
redhat.sh).
Then I modified the redhat.sh script to treat 7.2 the same as 7.1. Mostly I
changed lines like:
if [ "${VERSION}" = "7.1" ]; then
to:
if [ "${VERSION}" = "7.1" -o "${VERSION}" = "7.2" ]; then
i think I did all this correctly as everything installed without error.
Currently I can not get a client machine to get an IP from dhcp, and get a
kernel from the tftp server. The problem I am having is that it will not
load X correctly. If I have the system boot into init level 3 I will get a
shell. If I then manually run /tmp/start_ws X will load but without a xdm /
gdm / kdm login screen. Just the barebones grey background with a big X for
the mouse cursor.
Obviously the problem is somewhere with the XDMCP request to the server. I
can't tell if the client is making the request and the server is ignoring it,
or if the client is failing to make the request, and I don't know where to
look, or how to tell the server PC to log these requests somewhere.
Any help would be appreciated. I can even allow a login to my server PC if
that would be helpful.
FYI here is the start_ws script (10.1.1.6 is the corrects erver IP):
/usr/X11R6/bin/XFree86 -ac -query 10.1.1.6 > /dev/tty3 2>&1
