Hello,

according to Mr. Stecher from openthinclient the drivers for the virtual
network adapters are missing right now. They will be integrated in pales in
4 to 6 weeks.

To test in vmware Workstation use consus.

Hi,

 

I am trying out pales by installing the virtual appliance as a VM and also
trying to boot a test thin client VM on Vmware.

 

The thin client VM starts up finds the server and start booting but stops
with a blank black screen with a cursor top right corner.

 

I have switched on startup messages and it seems to be stopping when it
comes to displaying the desktop. I think the last word it shows it "lightdm"
but it goes by too fast to read the entire line.

 

Any ideas ?

you can modify the behavior of the RemoteControl (this is  VNC) in the

Hi folks. My use case for the Openthinclient is for a situation where a
pool of machines are used by people who are not on the whole
knowledgeable about computers but where there may be the odd hacker
pretending to be something else.

Openthinclient is attractive because I can PXE boot the user's machines
from a server that they can't get near and I can make sure there is
nothing deployed to the machines which allows them to attack the server.
However, I have noticed that, in my current temporary configuration, the
command history for the terminal is being remembered between sessions.
This implies that the profile is being kept between sessions, which I
don't want (as the next session may be a different user).

I will be most grateful if someone would please advise how to get a
"clean" profile at the start of every session.

[openthinclient-user] OTC network requirements

Hi,

Could anybody point me in the right direction to find the network requirements

Specifically I am having a problem in a new installation where the client hangs

probably a networking problem but I don't know what areas of my network to 
check.

Hi,

I have successfully installed, booted and tested OTC (Windows) in my office

The problems I am having are when I installed it in the production environment.

I can't seem to get one client past the "Mounting root file system " prompt.

Hi Jan,

Thank you for your follow up support.

Both the OTC Server(2008 R2) and the thin client are Vmware VMs on the same 
Vmware server.

They were both on a test Vmware host in a test isolated network environment 
where they worked nicely and I have now transferred them to the production 
network on a production Vmware host but this boot problem cropped up.

I understand it is probably a network issue but I need help tracking down the

Hi Pippo,

And you state that the SAME clients and OTC server worked in your office 
segment ?

How close to the OTC server can you physically get in your production network ? 
Can you connect a client directly to the same switch as the server is connected 
to and there try it out ?

If it works in the office environment but not in the production environment 
with the same clients and server it just has to be in the network.

Hi Jan,

Thank you for your prompt reply.

I meant that I cannot boot even one client so ALL clients are having the same 
problems even a test client I have set up in Vmware.

The clients and the server are on the same network and same segment so there 
should be no router or firewall between them.

The windows OTC server has it's firewall completely turned off for the time 
being.

I to feel it must be a network issue but I don't know where to start looking 
for the problem.

Any ideas ?

Both the OTC Server(2008 R2) and the thin client are Vmware VMs on the same 
Vmware server.

They were both on a test Vmware host in a test isolated network environment 
where they worked nicely and I have now transferred them to the production 
network on a production Vmware host but this boot problem cropped up.

I understand it is probably a network issue but I need help tracking down the 
problem.

Best Regards
Pippo

Hi Pippo,

And you state that the SAME clients and OTC server worked in your office 
segment ?

How close to the OTC server can you physically get in your production network ? 
Can you connect a client directly to the same switch as the server is connected 
to and there try it out ?

If it works in the office environment but not in the production environment 
with the same clients and server it just has to be in the network.

b.r.

Hi Jan,

Thank you for your prompt reply.

I meant that I cannot boot even one client so ALL clients are having the same 
problems even a test client I have set up in Vmware.

The clients and the server are on the same network and same segment so there 
should be no router or firewall between them.

The windows OTC server has it's firewall completely turned off for the time 
being.

I to feel it must be a network issue but I don't know where to start looking 
for the problem.

Any ideas ?

Hi Pippo,

"I can't seem to get one client past the "Mounting root file system " prompt."

Do you mean that there is ONE client that causes this problem or ANY/ALL 
clients ?

If one client, then just forget that client, if all clients then check your 
network for any routers / firewwalls in between segments of clients and the OTC 
boot server. If the SAME clents and server work in your office environment but 
not production then it's a network issue.

Hi,

I have successfully installed, booted and tested OTC (Windows) in my office 
environment without major problems and it works beautifully.

The problems I am having are when I installed it in the production environment.

I can't seem to get one client past the "Mounting root file system " prompt.

Any ideas of what may be wrong would be highly appreciated.
