I've been surfing the web and searching the archives but still have some questions as to whether ltsp is what I should be using or attempting something from scratch. I'm interested in setting up diskless nodes in a library setting for searching the libary catalog web server. The existing implementation is based on locked down Windows 95 boxes but these will be upgraded to something else soon. The current thinking is either a commercial thin client solution or Windows 2000, both of which may be overkill technically and/or financially. Here's what I am looking for. I've seen many of the relevant howto's and postings but nothing that quite fits (or I understand to fit). Autologin: either single user mode or based on nodename Browser Autolaunch: Netscape or /Mozilla Reasonably secure/stable locked down environment that just requires a reboot to get back to. No current requirement for saving session. As much as possible running locally on the diskless node: After the network boot, Browser running locally, window manager, etc. A light window manager: FVWM? IceWM? ??? that supports autologin.I've just implemented jsyuta bout all of this, the exception is that it is a true LTSP thin client with nothing running locally. This is by design, I don't want anything to run locally. I've used kdm's features, using the ability to autologin named workstations and starting nothing but a browser using the Startup parameter in kdmrc. The browser I've used is Opera 6.11 which supports a number of kiosk features including filtering of URLs which you want in order to stop people form browsing your file system. This setup starts no wm at all, just X and the browser is running. I toyed with disabling Alt_ctrl_backspace, but found some annoying side effects and used the Restart parameter in kdmrc instead to loop back to Opera if someone uses that key combination. You can fine tune both the command switches for Opera using whatever script you specify in the Startup parameter and the other features using the opera6.ini file for each user (which means terminal). It is easy to implement e.g. a side bar to make announcements etc. This works well for my use, but has no timing features.------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com _____________________________________________________________________ Ltsp-discuss mailing list.
