Hello Mike, would you mind sending me those scripts as well (if you still have them around) ?
We are about to set up a new server to migrate some users which are on very old LTSP and your idea sounds very interesting. Thanks! ---- Santiago Mera DroguerÃa Uruguay S.A.

Even though we are no longer using RHEL (we're now using Ubuntu) we have some performance issues. And your scripts may have ideas useful to our installation as well. /Lars Madsen Institut for Matematik / Department of Mathematics Aarhus Universitet / Aarhus University Mere info: http://au.dk/daleif@imf / More information: http://au.dk/en/daleif@imf From: Mike Cammilleri [mi...@stat.wisc.edu] Sent: 11 February 2015 00:27 To: ltsp-discuss@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Ltsp-discuss] LTSP on RHEL6 We install LTSP on Ubuntu as normal but replace the ldm login screen with our own bash login script. The user selects a RHEL6 server to sign into and then the X session launches on a separate rhel 6 box and the Ubuntu LTSP server no longer serves a purpose. I can provide the details of how we do this off list if it sounds helpful. There are a few hacks involved but nothing major.

Anything in any repository is old . It's caused consterrnation among many of us who've been using EL/Fedora for a long time. Probably not what you want to hear. If you must be on EL, the server bits still install and you can use a client image built on a different distro, e.g. Debian. The latest,er, last, server rpms are here (afaik): http://repo.inode0.com/repo/ltsp/rpm2/el6/ Good luck, William > Message: 2 > Date: Tue, 10 Feb 2015 02:48:45 +0000 > From: "Short, Kermit" <k_sh...@lanl.gov> > Subject: [Ltsp-discuss] LTSP on RHEL6 > To: "ltsp-discuss@lists.sourceforge.net" > <ltsp-discuss@lists.sourceforge.net> > Message-ID: > <6b6377ee93327f459669902a516ad6da95510...@ecs-exg-p-mb05.win.lanl.gov> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" > > Greetings! > I've got a fairly straightforward RHEL environment except for two things: > > > 1) We get all packages (including stuff from the EPEL) from an internal > satellite server > > 2) We are behind an http proxy. > > I believe number 2 is causing me problems when I try to run > ltsp-build-client, and I cannot find any switch or option for specifying a > proxy host for this command.
