Did you upgrade just the server, but not the LTSP environment? Log in of what fails? Shouldn't be any need to change ssh algorithms... ssh should be able to negotiate whatever common keys they both use. Unless you've made extensive modifications, an upgrade *should* go quite smoothly... there are no major changes to LTSP and related software between wheezy and jessie that would be backwards incompatible that I can think of... though it's admittedly been a while since I've done such an upgrade. One prolem you might see is true of any modern distro, incompatibilties with old video drivers, or requiring more ram. > From reading the Debian LTSP wiki, it seems that rebuilding client > images under Jessie won't help because they'll be 64 bit. Not sure what you mean here, the images will be whatever architecture you build the images from. If you build the image using the server as a base, it will be whatever architecture the server is. If you build an image using a chroot as a base, it will be whatever architecture the chroot is. If you export a chroot over NFS, it will be whatever architecture the chroot is, there's no need to build an image at all in that case. Good luck! live well, vagrant
