Blog of spblinux

Installation notes:

DebianEdu wheezy uses 10.0.0.0/8 with gateway 10.0.0.1
(e.g. spblinux with ifconfig eth1 10.0.0.1; cfg_nat start;
in vbox eth0 bridged, eth1 internal connected to tjener)

Installation of ltsp-server:

• only non automatic partitioning (using guided partitioning) works (21.8.13)

phpldapadmin (https://10.0.2.2/phpldapadmin/)

• apt-get install phpldapadmin
• changes in /etc/phpldapadmin/config.php
  Uses tls which starts with default port 389 (not ssl, 636, ldaps):
  – $servers->setValue(‘server’,’host’,’ldap‘)
  – //$servers->SetValue(‘server’,’port’,’636′)
  Login with ou=ldap-access (with password of unix system user root)
  – $servers->setValue(‘login’,’bind_id’,’cn=admin,ou=ldap-access,dc=skole,dc=skolelinux,dc=no’)

Add ltspserver in gosa (https://10.0.2.2/gosa/
(login as user which has been created during installation of tjener)

• Systems: Action Add
  Generic:
  – Server name: ltspserver00
  – Mode activated
  – Base /
  – IP-address 10.0.2.10
  – MAC_address: 12:34:ab…
  (might be looked up by first booting ltspserver:
  and dhcp gives name auto-mac-12-34-ab…)
  – Enable DHCP true and parent node (tjener) dhcp
  – Enable DNS true and Zone TJENER/intern
  Apply.
  Services:
  – add Terminal service
  Apply and start the service.
  NIS Netgroup:
  Add group ltsp-server-hosts
  – seems to get set in ldap directory, but does not display in gosa
  (netgroup/ltsp-server-hosts/nisNetgroupTriple)
  netgroup gets used as nfs4 authentication.

Nagios (https://10.0.2.2/nagios3/):

• Add ltspserver00 to nagios by running sitesummery-update-nagios
• Set password for user nagiosadmin with
  htpasswd /etc/nagios3/htpasswd.users nagiosadmin
  (and apache2ctl graceful)

Thin clients:

• when used with vbox: needs vbox extension pack

JavaFX: java-jdk + SceneBuilder + eclipse + e(fx)clipse

• download current java 7 jdk from oracle
  (java.com / Developers / JDK download / 64 bit)
