Hello, I wasn't at the school so I had someone run the commands and email me back the results. I've ssh'd in to the server now and I'll do what I can from here for the first part -- I don't think there's a way to do the thin client part remotely is there? I can ping the thin client from the server of course, but I can't ssh to its IP address.
I've put my results in-line also: On Tue, Feb 25, 2014 at 1:44 AM, Alkis Georgopoulos <alk...@gmail.com> wrote: >> So I found that getltscfg was not installed on the server so I had to >> install.

Not sure so I'm re-running it: > Get the lts.conf md5sum: > $ md5sum /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/lts.conf @ltsp:~$ md5sum /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/lts.conf md5sum: /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/lts.conf: No such file or directory That was just to confirm there's no i386 folder. Trying now with amd64: @ltsp:~$ md5sum /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/amd64/lts.conf dbd0e12514a3cd400b042f31b6825c88 /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/amd64/lts.conf >> root@ltsp191:~# getltscfg -a >> #SOUND="true" >> SCREEN_01="shell" >> export SOUND >> export SCREEN_01 > There's no # in front of the SOUND="true" line, is there? I will confirm this command on the thin client as soon as possible. On the server my current lts.conf file looks like this: @ltsp:~$ cat /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/amd64/lts.conf [default] SOUND=true SCREEN_01=shell #[00:22:64:BB:60:A8] #SCREEN_01=shell > Also, don't use SCREEN_01=shell because vt1 is reserved for the boot > messages and the getty service. > Use SCREEN_02=shell instead. Would setting SCREEN_02=shell cause the thin client to boot to a shell without switching consoles? The whole purpose I set that variable was to have something obvious happen to show me that the thin client is responding to lts.conf (I hope that makes sense!) >> With regards to tftp: >> $ tftp -V >> tftp-hpa 5.2, without readline > That's the tftp client, but which server? > dpkg -l tftpd-hpa @ltsp:~$ sudo dpkg -l tftpd-hpa Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend |/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name Version Description +++-=====================================================-================= ii tftpd-hpa 5.2-1ubuntu1 HPA's tftp server > If the above issues ^ are just copy/paste typos etc, then I don't know > what's wrong with your setup, so another visit to the IRC channel would be > required... :) I understand. I'll get the last piece of information and post it here. Is there a recommended time to go on IRC? Thank you for all your help so far!
