Got the ltspcfg fix from a June 22nd mail and add the
'$ENV{LANGUAGE}="en_EN:en";' line and now ltspcfg is running succesfully
without any parsing error.
I was using the search tool of the mailing list and missed this one.
It would be nice to have it integrated in a ltspcfg_0.6 lets say.
Still waiting for someone to help me in the /dev/sound/dsp ownership.
Thanks in advance anyone.

Subject: [Ltsp-discuss] Is it normal, that i need to restart the server every 3 days??
I've got only a small LTSP (4 Clients), but i do have to restart the server
every 2-5 days!!
Why? After this period of time, i get "Too many retransmissions", and the
clients can't connect.
I read the FAQ, where this problem is "solved" via a cronjob, but i am not
really satisfied with this:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
#kill old leftover processes - all of them
users=$(awk -F":" '{if ( $3 >= 500 ) print $1}' /etc/passwd | grep -v -e smb
-e ^nfs )
for user in $users do#kill old leftover processes - all of them
users=$(awk -F":" '{if ( $3 >= 500 ) print $1}' /etc/passwd | grep -v -e smb
-e ^nfs )
for user in $users do
processes=$(ps -ef | grep ^"$user " | grep -e Jan[0-9] -e Feb[0-9]
-e Mar[0-9] -e Apr[0-9] -e May[0-9] -e Jun[0-9] -e Jul[0-9] -e Aug[0-9] -e
Sep[0-9] -e Oct[0-9] -e Nov[0-9] -e Dec[0-9] |awk '{print $2}')
for process in $processes
do
kill -9 $process
done
done
processes=$(ps -ef | grep ^"$user " | grep -e Jan[0-9] -e Feb[0-9]
-e Mar[0-9] -e Apr[0-9] -e May[0-9] -e Jun[0-9] -e Jul[0-9] -e Aug[0-9] -e
Sep[0-9] -e Oct[0-9] -e Nov[0-9] -e Dec[0-9] |awk '{print $2}')
for process in $processes
do
kill -9 $process
done
done
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
WHY are theese processes leftover? And which processes are killed exactly with
this script? EVERY process? Am i right?
And if yes, what can i do, if i want a terminalserver that runs 24 hours?
Because then, i can't kill all processes in between, i would kill active
users in that moment...
So, how can i solve this professionally for a 24h/7d-Server?

qeldroma,
where are you seeing that error message ?
I've got servers that run for many months between reboots, and i'm NOT
running that cron job.
What version of Linux are you running on the server ?
How much Ram ?
Also, it looks like you double-pasted that script below. It doesn't
make sense the way you have it.

I have enabled deleting of the /tmp-partition on startup and am pretty sure,
that this solves my problem while restarting.
So there must be a dependency between /tmp and the different servers (KDM,
XFS).

Subject: [Ltsp-discuss] sound again
Hi,
Sorry to be a PITA, but after a day and a half of RTFMing I still don't
understand why sound is coming out of the server instead of the client.
So far, only esdplay produces sound on the client. Totem and others
produce sound on the server only.
This is LTSP-4 and Mandrake-10. What's even more annoying is that it was
working OK on Mdk-9.2 before I upgraded.
TIA,
Andrew

You might want to take a look at xf4vnc.sourceforge.net as well.

Subject: [Ltsp-discuss] sis_drv.o problems on LTSP 4
Hi all,
I am in the process of upgrading from a LTSP 3 system to LTSP 4 and Im
seeing some problems with 2 of my clients.
Under LTSP3 the clients boot fine, no problems at all, but with LTSP4 im
seeing problems very similar to Adrian Kuepkers
(http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=ltsp-discuss&m=108852868618909&w=2) IE
sis_drv.o is unresolved.
Is there a problem with X and the SIS530 video cards?
Any insights or hints, very much appreciated.
Thanks
Jonathan

Seemingly yes. If you make the client give you a text console,
you can type ssh -X [EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/bin/gnome-session
What would be an easy option to create an X11 dialog for the
user so that he could type in his user id and the system could
then launch ssh -X [EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/bin/gnome-session
for him?

Just download the source code from rdesktop.org and compile it. Put the
executable in the /opt/... LTSP bin directory. There might be one
library that you need to copy to the LTSP lib directory.

Why dont you run "df" to see if /tmp runs out of space. If it does then you need to
see the files thatare generated to make it full and solve the problem. I have server
running 90+ days too
