Thread: LTSP Remotely (Ubuntu 9.10)

i understand ltsp in ubuntu 9.10 connects via ssh want make cd can used off site connect internal ltsp server. internally, connect ltsp server via pxe. public facing firewall forwards ssh server already. hoping can build cd students , staff use home connect them ltsp server. got ideas how this?

you won't fast response remote connection, keep in mind. sound interesting test.

there security considerations, many of protocols have weak or non-existent encryption. might want tunnel as possible on ssh.

you'll want first set remote hard drive boot locally connect ltsp. practice:
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/lts...client-install

once way it, use basis live cd.
use cd-rws or flash devices like usb sticks that.
allow correct practice runs. once disks in hands of students there very high attrition rate disks. never got better 6 uses out of of them due accidental , intentional abuse or loss.

consider using busybox build boot image. if need ssh in busybox, consider using dropbear version based on openssh client or server.

if need pretend remote box on same lan terminal server, ssh can used vpn modifications routing table. see manual page -- if it's needed. openvpn option, procrastinate either solution long can.
