I have a problem with DNS , the client boots up and /etc/resolv.conf on the client gets written as dnserver 127.0.0.1 , even through the original file on the server points to the gateway ip. I tried setting it in lts.conf DNS_SERVER=192.168.4.1 but that doesn't seem to help
second problem is I don't see the network printers setup on the server on the thin clients ?? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Alkis Georgopoulos" <alk...@gmail.com> To: "David Groos" <djgr...@gmail.com> Cc: "Dean Mumby" <d...@mumby.co.za>, edubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com, ltsp-disc...@lists.sourceforge.net Sent: Wednesday, 30 May, 2012 5:52:40 PM Subject: Re: Simpler method for fat/thin client setups Στις 30/05/2012 06:07 μμ, ο/η David Groos έγραψε: > Since the server would need to run in pae mode, how does that affect how > much memory you can have on the server? Hi David, as I write on the ltsp-pnp wiki page, PAE kernels support up to 64 Gb RAM. And since fat clients don't consume almost any server memory anyway, that memory would only be useful for the thin clients in a mixed-mode environment. > Also, what's your experience with a server serving 30 fat clients? Can > you use 3 gigs RAM on the server since the clients are Fat? Sure, 3 Gb server RAM would be enough for 30 fat clients. Do some benchmarks about disk speed and network bandwidth though, you might e.g. see that a second PCI-e NIC on the server (with bonding) proves useful. -- edubuntu-users mailing list edubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/edubuntu-users
