Jim,

Conceptually, this helps a lot. One of the questions I ran into yesterday, though, is which set of configuration files should I be working with -- the /etc files, or the /opt/ltsp/i386/etc files ... or both?

And will they conflict with one another?


I've never been clear on this -- how the /opt/ltsp/i386/etc files work as compared to the /etc files. I've always guessed that the /opt/ltsp/i386/etc files are what the workstation uses as its environment. But if you are in X, then you're on the server -- should I be working with those files instead?

Dormition,

First thing to keep in mind is that if you set SCREEN_01 = shell, then you are running a shell session on the thin client. each command you type is being executed by the thin client.

If you set SCREEN_01 = startx, then you are running a session on the server. If you pop up an xterm, you will get a shell prompt ON THE SERVER. So, the commands you run will be running on the server.

If you want to see what scanners are available on the thin client, from the server, you need to edit your /etc/sane.d/net.conf file on your server, and add the IP address of your thin client.

If you don't want to edit that file, you can set SANE_NET_HOSTS to a colon-separated list of ip addresses of machines on the net.
