Hi list,
I am new to LTSP but I have spent sometime reading and scouring the web for
details, readme's and info on how to setup LTSP on my SuSE Linux Standard
Server 8 box. I have loaded the following rpms in my installation:
ltsp_core-3.0.9-0.i386.rpm
ltsp_kernel-3.0.15-0.i386.rpm
ltsp_x_core-3.0.4-0.i386.rpm
ltsp_x_fonts-3.0.0-0.i386.rpm
I have three questions:
(1) Is it possible to load the client software onto an HP t5500 thin client
(diskless) NC. The web states HP is giving LTSP its full support and that
the t5500 can be used as a client. How do I load the Linux boot image onto
the NC - I cannot seem to find any documentation on how this is done. I
normally flash these devices with CE.NET using either a parallel cable or
FTP update. I have no idea however on flashing the RAM disks in these NC's
with LTSP boot images.
(2) How do I properley uninstall the LTSP on my server once I have
installed it. I want to re-install it but when I run its configuration
script it will not 're-add' the config files etc. I have uninstalled the
RPMS but I dont think this has deleted the config files and folders that
LTSP installed.
(3) Has anyone got any advice for me on setting up the network addresses,
DHCP entries and my network address rage etc. in the LTSP config files.
Also how does DHCP work with LTSP - my Linux box (on which LTSP is loaded)
is not a DHCP server. Is this a problem? Our DHCP servers on our local
network are Windows NT machines. I could setup the Linux box as a DHCP
server if required but I dont reallyyyyyyy want to.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. If I can get this system working it
could mean a big step towards our company utilising Linux solutions to meet
our terminal server needs in the future.
Thank you in advance.
