Ubuntu Servers :: 9.10 To 10.4 Upgrade And LTSP?

Apr 30, 2010

Version 9.10 had been installed via the alternate CD as the LTSP Server Edition. In place upgrade to 10.4 completed normally via Update Manager. However, LTSP terminal boot now fails with error "Forbidden directory" and "Access Violation". The following was found . Ubuntu 10.4 uses tftp-hpa. Either this is a change from Ubuntu 9.10 or the default behaviour of tftp-hpa has changed. So now, the filename argument given in /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf must include the full pathname. The previous requirement was to exclude the chroot path. If this is documented somewhere, I missed it. And after modifying /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf, do not forget to restart the dhcp daemon $ sudo /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server restart

Ubuntu Servers :: LTSP And Booting HPt5000?

Dec 4, 2010

I got myself a HP t5000 series Thin client to use on my LTSP 10.04. I changed the Bios to boot PxE. When i restart the thin client it asks for a DHCP and finds the LTSP-DHCP server all is good. Its got a IP address ok, the boot process starts. ok I get the Splash screen for Ubuntu. and all is going well. ok I no get a login screen. All is going very well. (As normal with Ubuntu). I can login all is good the login starts and i get the start up sound.But then where normally one would expect to get a desktop, one gets a login screen. Not knowing the full boot procses im not sure where to start to look. Knowing linux there would be a log file somewhere, that stores the LTSP Terminal Bootup/login process and would tell me where its stopping/failing.

The good news is that when i boot a fat client in all works ok and i an able to get in with a desktop.

Ubuntu Servers :: Cannot Connect To NBD Server - LTSP

Feb 17, 2011

I setup Ubuntu 10.10 (edubuntu) along with ltsp. I have an environment with a windows network (192.168.1.0) and a subnet (192.168.0.0) that the new terminal server is on. Everything seemed to be connecting properly, but when I attempted to boot the first client, I get the error message: "Cannot connect to NBD server".

Ubuntu Servers :: Ltsp Fails In Tftp Under U9.10 / Sort It?

Feb 17, 2010

In Jaunty (9.04) I've setup a small (eleven-terminal) ltsp network at the local school. It handled around 6600 working hours with ease.
Now I've upgrade the server to Karmic Koala (9.10) and it just stopped working.
1) The clients have PXE NICs
2) They get the proper IPs from the DHCP server and respond appropriately to changes in the DHCP configuration files.
3) DHCP server also points the clients to
filename=/ltsp/i386/pxelinux.0
4) When the clients try to download the pxelinux.0 over tftp they just timeout
5) /etc/inetd.conf has an entry like
tftp dgram udp wait root /usr/sbin/in.tftpd /usr/sbin/in.tftpd -s /var/lib/tftpboot
6) The file /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/pxelinux.0 exists on the server

I'm lost at all these configuration files and protocols.

Ubuntu Servers :: 10.04 LTSP Locks Up After 23rd Login?

Sep 3, 2010

I am currently running LTSP on Ubuntu 10.04. It is a dual gig nic setup with 16GB of ram and dual AMD quad core 2.4s. I installed all the latest updates as well as likewise-open so we can use AD authentication. When testing the configuration in the lab, I boot 32 clients that successfully reach the login screen. Here comes the interesting part, I can log in, using all unique AD accounts, up to 22 clients. When I attempt to log in to the 23rd client LTSP hangs. If I restart a client it will retrieve an IP address, but TFTP will eventually time out. All of the clients are connected to a Gigabit switch along with the server so network speeds are not an issue. When I run system monitor it only shows 3.6GB of memory in use and the processors are all under 10% utilization. I have beating my head against this issue for 2 days .

Ubuntu Servers :: Running Localapps In 10.04 LTSP Clients?

Dec 8, 2010

I've successfully built my server, and any fat or thin client that I connect to it boots wonderfully, with great response. I've gone through this exercise because we need a more efficient way of testing computers before delivery to our customers. So, I'm trying to run Passmark's BurnInTest. I've run it before with previous versions (9.something, I think) and it worked well, but I needed to build a new server so we can test more computers concurrently, so I figured I'd get the latest release.

My problem occurs when I try to run BurnInTest - it must have root access to test the local USB, parallel, and serial ports, and the optical drive. For the previous iteration I used a script that dropped into a local xterm session, su'd to a root session, and called the BiT GUI. In this attempt, the same scripts, even when I single-step them manually, results in 'authentication failure' when the su is attempted.

I have enabled the root account and created a password for it in the chroot /opt/ltsp/i386, and rebuilt the image, multiple times, no joy. Using ctrl-alt-F1 I can log in as root, and using dmesg I can see the USB device register when I connect it, so as far as I can tell the root account is alive and well, just not available in a local xterm session for some reason.

Ubuntu Servers :: Install Ltsp On 10.04 Without Hard Brainfucking?

Apr 1, 2011

In internets there are lot of successless stories installing ltsp on ubuntu 10.04. Most problems are in ndb, init scripts and somewhere else, which are hardly debuggable. It seems like ubuntu 10.04 has ltsp packages completely broken and abandoned. Have someone succeeded to install ltsp on 10.04 without hard brainfucking? Maybe it's better to install ltsp from scratch, or choose another distribution?

Ubuntu Servers :: Installing LTSP When Using A Separate DHCP And TFTP?

Mar 17, 2010

I want to install Ubuntu LTSP on top of an already existing system. However, I want to use a different DHCP and TFTP server. Do I simply just install 'ltsp-server-standalone' with apt and run 'sudo ltsp-build-client', stop the DHCP and TFTP server and stop them from starting automatically? Would I then just copy over the pxelinux.cfg/default file from /var/lib/tftpboot along with the initrd.img and vmlinuz images to the TFTP server?

Edit: Do I need to actually copy the whole /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp directory over to the TFTP server?

Ubuntu Servers :: LTSP Mounting Windows Shares At Login

Apr 21, 2010

I've been asked to investigate the possibility of using LTSP in our school to provide a more "real world" programming environment to our students. We have a Windows 2003 Server domain and no plans to change it.I've set up the LTSP server, joined the domain and everything seems to be working fine, I can login to the LTSP server with a student account.

The next thing I want to achieve is give the students access to their "My Documents" folder on the Windows 2003 server. Is it possible to have a student log on to the terminal server (who has never logged in before) and have it automatically mount their share on the windows server?

Ubuntu Servers :: Install And Configure LTSP On A Server For A HP Thin Client To Boot Off?

Jul 22, 2011

I am trying to install and configure LTSP on a server for a HP thin client to boot off. The version of Ubuntu that I am using is 11.04 x86 and it is a fresh install on a dual core system with 2GB RAM. I followed a guide which comprised of these commands.

sudo apt-get install ltsp-server-standalone openssh-server sudo ltsp-build-client or if your on a 64-bit system with 32-bit machines do sudo ltsp-build-client arch i386 for editing the servers IP values use /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf after that you need to restart DHCP server sudo /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server restart
and update sshkeys -sudo ltsp-update-sshkeys and if you updated dhcpd.conf then you need to update you image also by typing in terminal ltsp-update-image

Everything seemed to install as it should but when I try to boot from the thin client it just times out and says no DHCP or proxy invites received. I turned DHCP off on the router and even tried another router, but I still get nothing. I am at a bit of a loose end and I hope someone on here can point me in the right direction of where I am going wrong.

Ubuntu Installation :: Can't Load Ltsp In 10.04?

May 6, 2010

Does anyone know how ltsp is supposed to load in a 10.04 Edubuntu install? The live CD worked beautifully, providing me with a gui under "applications/other" with which I could successfully test my thin clients. But once I actually installed Edubuntu (through the live CD), there was no ltsp configuration at all, the gui was gone and there was no visible way to install ltsp. There wasn't even an option in the DVD install routine the way there was in previous versions.

Ubuntu :: Kernel Panic With LTSP And 10.4?

Sep 1, 2010

I'm trying to set up a thin client to connect to an Ubuntu 10.4 64bit. The client itself is 32 bit.When booting the thin client, I get the following:

Code:

Begin: Running /scripts/init-premount...
No interfaces found! Aborting...
Done.

[code]....

My main worry is, obviously, the kernel panic.When booting 64bit machines (a laptop and a desktop), everything works fine, but when booting a 32 bit netbook or thin client, I get the above panic.

Ubuntu Networking :: LTSP 10.04 Stalls On Boot?

I've got a fresh install from the alternate CD. The thin client gets to the point where the screen fills with dots .........done, then it just sits there and does nothing else. No error messages or anything. I have a two nic setup that worked great on karmic and haven't changed any of the hardware around or anything. I'm at a loss as to what to do, I've reinstalled several different times fiddled with every setting I could think of and searched and read till my eyeballs are ready to fall out. It has become a matter of principle to me now and I refuse to go back to an earlier version.

Ubuntu :: LTSP Kernel Panic - Nothing Seems To Load ?

I've installed LTSP on 10.04. I can get a couple of (fairly new) laptops to boot from this so all appears to be fine.

But my key goal is to get ASUS K8S-MX motherboard with sis 190 lan to boot so that I can set up a computer lab.

All seems to go well on boot but

When loading essential drivers, nothing seems to load and I get a done.

Then running /scripts/init-premount I get no interfaces found.

Then mounting root file system It starts Running /scripts/nfs-top and drops into kernel panic.

Ubuntu Networking :: LTSP Server Install On 10.10?

Nov 17, 2010

I installed in Virtualbox many times and the clients would not connect. The config of the dhcpd.conf was the problem.Now, Everywhere I kept reading it said I had to turn off my hardware routers dhcp. Thats wrong, I have it working with it on and with one network card. Heres the nuts and bolts. Dlink 4100 hardware router assigning address block 192.168.2.200-250 to pcs on the lan. Router is set to reserve and IP for the ltps server nic so it gets the same IP assigned every time from the hardware router. No need to force linux to an ip when it can be set in the router. Then installed LTSP from alt-cd. Once done, dhcp wont run because it conflicts with the hardware dhcp. Found out by trying to restart it and it said stop - Fail when it tried to stop it.

sudo /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server restart
So edit /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf.
sudo gedit /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf

Mine attached below: The subnet, as long as the 1st three numbers match the rest of lan setup it will work.(192.168.2.0), rest of my lan is 192.168.2.x. Now notice the range is a different block than the hardware dhcp server uses. So all thin clients that connect will be assigned something 192.168.2.100-150 and all hardware connected pcs will be assigned 192.168.2.200-250 from the hardware router. So no conflicts. Then for the domain name server, set it to the hardware router ip. My hardware router is 192.168.2.2. Set option router to the same as hardware router of 192.168.2.2 Nothing in my dhcpd.conf file is pointing to the ltsp dhcp server. Nothing else had to be edited in the dhcpd.conf Next hurdle I had, after any change of the dhcpd.conf, ip's might have changed and you have to reconfig the ssh and the image. run these 2 commands.

sudo ltsp-update-sshkeys
then
sudo ltsp-upadte-image
then
sudo /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server restart

Then thin clients/lan boot pcs all can connect after that.

I have since installed again at work in virtual box, booted from another vbox client and booted from a separate lan pc. Then installed again at home on AMD 3200 Athlon, 1 gig mem. Booted from my main pc PhenomX4, no problems. Pc's must have lan boot available in the bios or net boot available on the network card(most consumer add on cards do not). But most motherboard lan connection do.

# Default LTSP dhcpd.conf config file.
