Hello Frank,

 

perhaps try to set nothing in thin client options. 

 

I also use w2k8 Server R2 64bit as otc Server but also use w2k3 as dhcp and
domain controller. I do not set something in options. No nfs or something. 

So I would try to set a default desktop application to the client and
nothing more. Then boot and have a look if the clients boot the linux
environment. If that works then you can try with your nfs share. If not you
should first try find that problem.

 

Best regards / Mit freundlichem Gruß

Betreff: [openthinclient-user] OpenThinClient OS Loading Error

 

I am new to openthinclient and this user list. I am in need of assistance
with properly configuring the client OS loading process. The information I
need does not appear included in the support wiki:

 

Background……..

 

+ I installed the server on Windows Server 2008 R2 (64 bit), and I was
finally able to get the server manager application running after removing
java v. 7.25 64 & 32bit with the last v. 6.45 32 bit

 

+ I changed the manager application shortcut target to the 32 bit javaws.exe
path as described in the support wiki for installing on Windows 7 & Windows
Server 2008 R2

 

+ I have opened inbound TCP & UDP ports in the Windows firewall on the
server as identified in the openthinclientadvisor application

 

+ Manager is working nicely and I can add ThinClients from the PXE Client
list

 

+ ThinClient gets DHCP reserved IP address just fine; nothing special for
PXE booting set on the Windows DHCP server

 

+ Appears the openthinclient environment handles everything with PXE booting
and no special settings need be configured in DHCP server according to
support documentation and threads on this user list

 

Problem…….

 

+ Client boots via PXE fine to start the openthinclient OS shell… but
ultimately fails

 

+ The client OS loading stalls after completing the /scrpits/nfs-premount

 

+ Next lines report:

 

+ “mount: RPC: timed out”

+ “mount: nfsmount failed: bad file descriptor”

+ “mount: mounting 192.168.99.99:/openthinclient on /root failed: Invalid
argument

 

The 192.168.99.99 IP address is not my real server address but just an
example

 

Such an RPC time out error strikes me as a file path or sharing error of
some sort

 

I am guessing the default path to the boot file is incorrect as
“192.168.99.99:/openthinclient” reflecting what I think is the Boot Options
- NFS share setting “\openthinclient”

 

Since I am using Windows 2008 R2 64bit , should the NFS share be set to
“Program Files/openthinclient” instead?

 

If so, where do I change this?

 

What are the correct Boot Options settings anyway?

 

Thank you,

 

Frank
