The wiki is open for editing, feel invited to get things going in the French language department. If you need assistance, we'd be happy to give you assistance (just drop me a line, and I will get you connected, if you wish so). Regarding the content itself, I'm afraid you'd be rather on you own atm, as there are no French speaking people within our documentation team. > - Documentation: i can't find any documentation nor on the website, nor > in the wiki/sourceforge : is it normal? The wiki is supposted to be the documentation, and I had the impression you already discovered it on you own...So can you explain a little bit more verbose, what do you mean by "no documentation" and what your expectations are? > > *How-to* > I'm looking at booting a personnalized linux on a restricted network (no > internet access) with diskless thinstation or diskless standard pc. > I wish i could make : > - Add files / apps / services: Unfortunately most of our documentation for developer is indeed in German, but as the most basically is code or shell specific, you may still benefit http://wiki.openthinclient.org/confluence/display/DOO/Pakete+entwickeln http://wiki.openthinclient.org/confluence/display/DOO/Freerdp+-+git http://wiki.openthinclient.org/confluence/display/DOO/Rdesktop+Paket+bauen > > Example: Personnalized wallpaper on one/most/all thinstation .. > And no, it's not a detail. > Lock screen with password (there is an item in > the gui for user management ... is the link possible?) > Add other application (with or without service) > (any) .. Sure it's possible, there is a basic image, called os-core, just have a look at our github.com/openthinclient repos, There is a huge Makefile which will orchestrate scripts to create a Debian based, thinclient oriented base image (squashfs). The apps you have seen are basically self-contained squashfs images, which will be mounted in the course of the booting procedure and contain payload, metadata and information about how and whent stuff will get started (rcS.d, rc2345.d, tcos/launcher). I'd give you the hint to start with os-core and then install the development-environment for packages (tcos-dev in openthinclient/deploy) > Is it possible to integrate [so modify] with a > directory (nis, ad [samba/winbind] ) for user management on the guest? > (previous line) http://wiki.openthinclient.org/confluence/display/OMD/Active+Directory+Integration > add/modify any file to the rootfs ( > picture/icon/configuration) [ example: icon for desktop links, special > configuration for ssh , remove vnc client ...........] > > - Create personnalized rootfs: > Is it possible to create a root fs with existing tools ? > (buildroot for example) There are two ways, the one would be to modify the os-core (base.sfs) image, like I mentioned it above. The faster and simpler approach is to create so-called custom packages, which mimic the rootfs directory structure (files, dirs, permissions) and will be applied while the client is booting. http://wiki.openthinclient.org/confluence/display/OMD/Custom-Ordner > > in the GUI: > - What is the purpose of user item : can i had an user which be > propragated on thin client? IF you have a Directory of some kind (internal LDAP, ActiveDirectory, OpenLDAP and what not), you may import them and assign ressources like application configurations on the bases of individual users. > - Do i need a debian repository to work with the project ? (no internet > connection) depends on what you what to do, but yeah it's simpler to start with Debian as a baseline for porting applications. > - How to build/add an application distributed to guests? > just as I told above.
