Some of us on the k12ltsp list are using the TeacherTool python script. Not a cron job, but there's some usefull stuff you can take from there as well.

here's my  modified version of Robert Melton's script:

and a screenshot of the main window running

Here is a hack that will work. I am working on a better way to do this. This is in bash. ###ON Server
Create directory: Mkdir /var/log/tracking

###Run this from bash. ipAddress=$(ifconfig eth0 | awk '/inet/ { print $2 }' | awk -F ":" '{ print $2 }')
echo "$ipAddress" > /var/log/tracking/ip.log

###Export /var/log/tracking rw in /etc/exports

Cd /opt/ltsp/i386/bin
vi trackip
###Add the following lines:
#Insert IP
ipAddress=$(ifconfig eth0 | awk '/inet/ { print $2 }' | awk -F ":" '{ print $2 }')
while read line do
if [ "$line" != "$ipAddress" ]
then
echo "$ipAddress" >> /var/log/tracking/ip.log
fi
done < /var/log/tracking/ip.log

###Save
Chmod 0777 trackip
Cd /opt/ltsp/i386/etc
Edit rc.local /opt/ltsp/i386/bin/touchip

###Put this next file wherever you feel safe putting it
###Shutdown script
#read shutdown and re-create
ipAddress=$(ifconfig eth0 | awk '/inet/ { print $2 }' | awk -F ":" '{ print $2 }')
while read line
do
if ["$line" != "$ipAddress"]
then
ping -c 2 -W 2 -q "$line" if [ $? -eq 0 ]
      then     ltspinfo --host="$line" --shutdown
      fi
fi
done < /var/log/tracking/ip.log
echo "$ipAddress" > /var/log/tracking/ip.log

Hi Richard and list,

- and when you do, please be kind enough and share with the rest of us what you did.

- being able to do such a thing, say at midnight, is a pearl.

Best regards,

Both excellent suggestions, thanks! I'll try each one out.

Chris, Do you have a list of the clients if so then edit your lts.conf and set ALLOW_SHUTDOWN = Y. Then you can make a script that loops thru the list and executes "ltspinfo -h $HOST --shutdown"

Subject: [Ltsp-discuss] Thin Client auto Shutdown?

Hello all,
I was wondering if there was a way to power down the clients on a system on a schedule (ala Cron). I realize there is no Cron running on the client, but I was hoping there was a way to apply a Cron job on the host, to all of the clients.
Thanks,
Chris
