OK Guys. When I ask for help I have to assume the readers are Intelligent enough to realise that by subscribing and putting up this message , I have spent hours reading all the references that I can find. Yes I culd have put a lot more info , but I wanted to see if anyone was out there who was intrested in helping. A group of us in Capetown are trying to setup a standard LTSP server for the local schools. The first try at University of the Western Cape, was a bog standard install using the LTSP option for 8.04 The client was a pc set to a network boot. Everything worked fine except the login. 'not authorized ...." Cannot remember the exact wording. Next ... At Camps Bay High they have Sun thin clients which had been working undet 7.01 (don't know how they were installed) Under 8.04 they give a bios problem which was solved but then they crask\h with a kernel panic. So I installed 7.10 alternate cd at home got it running on my wireless connection to the adsl modem (unable to download the edubuntu version from the Tuxlab distribution site.) Manged to figure out how to build a client and update keys and build an image. (in that order) The terminal boots fine, with 2 problems. 1. no graphics 2. unable to login. module-detect (argument: "") initialization failed E: main.c module load failed main.c failed to initialize daemon The above appears on the client screen after which I can get a command line login prompt but 'login incorrect' There are no logs in the /opt/ltsp/i386 directories and the syslog shows successful connect from the ckient. I can find no other errors in the system. (ps I started working with Edubuntu about a month ago, until then I used Solaris) Today I go to the launch of 8.10, so maybe all this will go in the trash can anyway. So Guys Tell me What log files to look at ???? Peter
