RE: RE: Trouble booting clients

HI
Thanks to al you good people there have taken time to help me setting up
the LTSP server. Jake Schroeder send me a mail saying that I had to
disable my firewall on the server. After that it just worked :-)

/Tue
A happy man with a LTSP server there are working, can you ask for more?

RE: RE: Trouble booting clients

well, I haven't seen the entire thread, as I believe some messages must've
been off-list, but you say that you had to disable the firewall on the
server.  Assuming you mean on the same server as the ltsp box (probably) you
might want to rethink that.

Obviously the wizard type settings for the firewall are very obtuse, and
that some custimization is needed, but 'off' (in my opinion) is not the
right solution.  It appears that you need to open the tFTP port.  Off the
top of my head I don't know what the port number is, but doing that would
probably fix the solution as well.  I don't have RH8 installed, (only 7.1)
but I will look on my linux box tonight and try to bring the correct
filenames back to the list and which areas to modify.

then again, assuming this is your home network, and internal security is not
a real concern, having the firewall of an internal server turned 'off' might
not be a problem.  but something to definately think about. my internal
server at home is setup with a firewall, and only allows certain types of
traffic through.  Specifically port 22, port 21, port 80. for ssh, ftp and
http, respectively.

if this is a work network, put some more thought into 'how' you are
configuring your network, and don't just accept the default settings.  Linux
is meant to be customized.

my 2 cents, i'll add more later when I get to my home linux box.

RE: RE: Trouble booting clients

Hi Joey
My ltsp box is on my home network, and there are another firewall
(Linux) facing the Internet. But I will love to get the file names and
then setteing the firewall up right. After all, I might learn some thing
:-)

How to disable screensaver

I am trying to disable my screensaver. Any changes I make to 
/home/ws253/.xscreensaver  (mode off) does not seem to take effect. My 
terminals all seem to blank after x amount of time. I am trying to 
understand when xscreensaver is loaded. I would like to prevent it 
loading all together. Does anyone have any ideas what causes my 
terminals to blank out. I have checked the obvious things like bios 
settings. My terminals are Via EPIA Mini-ITX based units.

Thanks.

OK, so you undid everything you had done and reinstalled the ltsp_rmedia package?  You should be OK, then, as
long as you add the right lts.conf entries afterward.

On rereading your earlier message below, I think that the problem might be that you are trying to use
/dev/cdrom, which normally doesn't exist when using devfs.  Use /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 instead, eg:

RAMDISK_SIZE       = 2048
RCFILE_01          = "rmedia"
RMEDIA_DEV01_NAME  = "floppy"
RMEDIA_DEV01_NAME  = "/dev/floppy/0"
RMEDIA_DEV02_NAME  = "cdrom"
RMEDIA_DEV02_NAME  = "/dev/cdroms/cdrom0"

Then reboot and try "ls /var/ftp/rmedia/cdrom".

RE: How to disable screensaver

I deleted all of the screensaver files ;D

is there a system side solution to "xset s off"
instead of per user?
