Greetings everyone -- I have searched for documentation regarding these issues, but have, thus far, been unable to find anything related to what I need to know. If anyone could help or point me in the right direction, it would be much appreciated.
I am in the process of setting up a small LTSP network, consisting of 10-12 clients. The server is running RedHat 8.0. The clients are Jammin-125's. The LTSP packages are the latest available. 1) Is it possible to connect USB drives (i.e., floppy and Zip)? I saw Paul Whittaker's solution for USB Zip drives, but I was wondering if there were other methods that made for a more seemless integration at the workstation. I haven't seen any solutions for USB floppy. 2) I'm having a strange issue with OpenOffice.org -- I can log into one terminal and load up and use OpenOffice.org with no problem. I can log into a separate workstation with a different account and OpenOffice.org works fine. However, when I am logged into two different workstations at the same time with the same account, OpenOffice.org doesn't work correctly anymore -- I can launch the program successfully on the first workstation, but if it is still running on the first workstation and I try to launch it on the second workstation, the new windows will appear on the first. As far as I know, this does not happen with other applications. Is this a configuration issue? I've seen posts saying that it was necessary to run OpenOffice.org setup for each "client," but that doesn't make sense to me -- I'm sure they meant "user" instead of "client." Or am I way off on this? Has anyone else seen this or is this a question for the OpenOffice.org community? 3) I'm slightly confused about the need for /etc/hosts. I confess, I haven't set it up at all and LTSP using NFS and gdm *appear* to be working just fine, however I don't want things to go awry down the road (could this even be related to issue #2 above?). Am I missing something? Or should I just leave well enough alone? Besides the above issues, everything else is working great so far. Compliments to Jim for a great software package and a great thinclient, too!
