With NFS I still get the same blue screen and with NBD something times out.
Can't tell exactly what though?
The nbd image fati386.img has grown to 1 Gig+. Could that be an issue?
Any clue where to look ? Or may be I should do a complete re-hash of the
system as if it works for even one it
Its normal for a highfat nbd image to be gigs+
I think your issue is really to do with it not finding the correct ips
to implement for nfs, pulse, and cups. Can u take a look at the logs
and see waht could be timing out the nbd setup. Also.. take out quiet

Hi Ernesto,
I am trying to set-up a mixed thin-client and fat-client LTSP server on
Ubuntu 8.10.
The thin-client part is working absolutely fine.
The fat-client part just doesn't boot beyond dhcp and successfully
getting an IP.
I have set-up the 'fat' part following
Hi there... u should really be using the ltsp fatclient plugin,
downloadable from my site (www.nubae.com.) As u will have read from
other users, the plugin works great and I've been using it on
multimedia systems for over 6 months without issues. Email me if u get
stuck...
Kind regards,
David
Hey David,
From all the reviews and by your word, I'm convinced about the fatclient
plugin but am held up due to ldap authentication.
Can I authenticate against ldap using the fatclient plugin? I mean, does
the usual ldap-client config work with this as well.
Thanks Regards,

Hi Ernesto,
I don't have access to the test environment right now. However, I do
remember following this sequence all the time. Was not mounting sys
religiously though.
Once more thing - It is booting fine for me using nfs instead of nbd.
With nbd it just doesn't boot. Since you are using
David,
the fatclient script also assumes that there are 2 NICs in the system.
Isn't it?
Shouldn't its presence be ascertained before attempting the nfs mount
and the cups printer entry.
What if we have only one interface on the server?
Regards,
SB

No, not really. It is definitely more hecker firendly than KIWI, but

Ok, I think I found it on Ubuntu. Once you have created ext3 NBD

actually I cannot have read/write with NBD LTSP images because those are
made with mksquashfs and squashfs is read-only by design. I could have
read/write access to a ext3 image over NBD perfectly. The question is
how to config that, maybe in the /etc/default/ltsp-client-setup
Hi Ernesto,
Ltsp exports squashfs image over NBD so you can't mount it readonly.
What you have to do is ext3 NBD image and then tweak initrd scripts to
mount ext3 instead of squashfs. Unfortunally I don't know the details
for ubuntu, but from my experience, initrd scripts are not very easy

Hi all, I am from Cuba. My country is recently deploying thousands of
thin clients in institutions and government. A great idea but poorly
executed. The clients have a Celeron processor, 256Mb RAM and 15 flat
displays. The servers come pre-installed with Windows Server 2000 and
some network booted
