[ubuntu-uk] Edubuntu thin client subnet and Windows Domain
Hi All
[cid:image002.png@01CBE890.D188A8C0][cid:image003.png@01CBE890.D188A8C0][cid:image002.png@01CBE890.D188A8C0][cid:image001.png@01CBE890.6DDBB100][cid:image001.png@01CBE890.6DDBB100]I'm
new to the group and would like to ask your help.
I'm an IT tech at a school and I want to demo Edubuntu with thin clients to the
senior management and help them see the light.
I have an Edubuntu server with two nics joined to the primary windows domain
and I can log on with domain credentials and everything is AOK. I used
LikewiseOpen 6 to join the server to the primary domain.
So, on my Edubuntu server eth1 is connected to the primary domain and has a
static IP. eth2 also has a static IP and is the DHCP for the thin client
subnet, connected to a switch. IP forwarding is enabled.
DOMAIN eth1 Edubuntu Server eth2 (SUBNET)
switch clients
So far, so good: I can log on the thin clients with one of the local accounts
specified on the Edubuntu server and with that account I can surf the net and,
if I supply domain credentials, browse the primary domain.
Problem I have is:
I can't work out how to log on to the primary domain with a Active Directory
account directly from a thin client. If I try DOMAIN\user to log on, after
giving the password, the password screen refreshes and 'domainuser@11.*.21.*'s
password' appears under the blank password box. The IP in that message is the
IP for the subnet and not the primary domain.
I feel like I'm miss-understanding some basic simple step but I just can't
figure it out.
Here's some of the config files:

auto eth1

It rather sounds as if you inadvertently chose a non english language!
I have installed a number of edubuntu. They install just like
ubuntu/kubuntu and use gnome just as straight ubuntu does.
They are aimed at children so the artwork is a bit more fancy. They
also are geared for a client ('workstation') and server arrangement -
for a class full of children if needed. I have only needed to use them
as a stand alone PC - that is 'workstation'.

My son installed Edubuntu in a school library where he was working- no
problems, he was very enthusiastichowever the school was in the grip of
North Yorkshire and their fascination for Windows and throwing away public
money on it...and after he left I am sure they relapsed...sorry am off
the point .he had no problems.

Re: [ubuntu-uk] EdUbuntu
On the subject of edubuntu i have just introduced it to a early learning centre/nursery that my cousins wife works in and they are over the moon with the useability and more importantly the cost i.e nothing. Anyway they have branches nationwide and have asked me to write some more copies of edubuntu to send to the other centres. One thing they did ask was would there be more variations of the learning apps? or maybe upgradeable questions/skillsets.
