Package: debian-edu-config Version: 1.453 Severity: normal Hi,
if a diskless workstation uses tjener as LTSP server krbtgt fails while requesting service tickets (imap/smtp). This is due to a line (added by ltsp client startup configuration) in /etc/hosts (10.0.2.2 server). While setting '<LTSP server IP> server' is o.k. for thin clients (runlevel 4) this isn't correct for runlevel 3. For diskless clients the line containing 'server' should be deleted during startup. This could be done by dropping a configuration code snippet into /opt/ltsp/i386/usr/share/ltsp/ltsp_config.d/. Find this file attached. Wolfgang
# Store this file as /opt/ltsp/$arch/usr/share/ltsp/ltsp_config.d/debian-edu-fix-etc-hosts # This code works around a Kerberos problem for diskless workstations using # tjener as LTSP server. A Kerberos tgt would otherwise request service # tickets from "server", not "tjener.intern" -- other problems may occur, too. # This fix deletes the line that is wrong for runlevel 3 (diskless workstation). # Wait until /etc/hosts is writeable. if [ -w /etc/hosts ] ; then echo "Start fixing /etc/hosts. $0" if [ "$(runlevel | cut -d" " -f2)" = "3" ] ; then sed /server/d /etc/hosts > /tmp/hosts cp /tmp/hosts /etc rm /tmp/hosts fi echo "Fixing /etc/hosts done. $0" fi
