ltsp
We installed a terminalserver for my
school. As the other server, this one runs also with
skolelinux.
First hurdle was the hardware raid controller: It didn't work. Bernies solution was to disassemble the part and install a software-raid which worked finally.
The second hurdle was a broken setup-routine: It stopped at a point and Gregoa discovered in the syslog an unanswerable question, because the the apt-key was expired. Gregoas solution was to install the new key direktly in the "target"-system, that is the new, but not yet installed system. Then all was ok.
The third hurdle occured after the first reboot without CD. It found nothing to boot from. My question was, wether the first disc was set as "bootable"? No it wasn't. After setting the boot-flag, the system booted as expected.
The fourth hurdle were different IP-addresses from different net-ranges for the clients. My solution was to use a switch for the thin clients to be in a different net.
Well after solving all problems the terminal-server works fine, the clients have access to their /home on the dhcp/ldap server and we can reuse old computers further more. I am looking forward to the praktice during school-duty.

Kaiser Max
Was at the Kaiser Maximilian ceremony
in Innsbruck and met some nice guys. And even old guys. Even from
ancient times. Took 400 pictures and was at the afterparty in the
Stiftskeller. Well, I just transfered the pics to my hdd and edited
them. Now: heavy-bed-load.

translation
I am amused about a flickr
translation. Opening a picture it shows me were it was taken. As my
programs appears in german, the picture said it was taken in "Süd
Karolina".

Ambras
Was at the Ambras Castle party with
the "Barock"-Theme. The special exhibitions were very interesting,
but also swordfighting and barock-dancing and music. Even the Bosna
was good! Met Tanja for the third time for random (or fortuity) in
two weeks. Funny!
