| Andy Antares | * Did I understand everything right about 2 nic LTSP? | 07:08:41 |
 alkisg | No | 07:09:16 |
| alkisg | The new LTSP NIC1 goes to Mikrotik, either directly or via any switch | 07:09:43 |
| alkisg | The new LTSP NIC2 goes to an isolated switch that is not connected to Mikrotik at all. In that switch, any test clients can boot from the new LTSP. | 07:10:13 |
| alkisg | So it's Mikrotik <=> LTSP NIC1 <=> LTSP NIC2 <=> switch <=> new LTSP users | 07:10:33 |
| alkisg | * The new LTSP NIC1 goes to Mikrotik, either directly or via any switch, to give Internet to the new LTSP server | 07:11:45 |
| Andy Antares | Thank you, got it | 07:25:37 |

| deonlot | Hi everyone,
My name is Deon,
We have deployed a LTSP server on Ubuntu 22.
We opted for sharing NFS home over NFS.
We are now looking to switch back to the sshfs method for the home directories.|
I am unfortunately not able to do this easily.
Can you please point me in the right direction? | 10:37:54 |
| alkisg | Hi, just remove the fstab line from your ltsp.conf and run ltsp initrd | 10:41:34 |
| deonlot | When I do that, no home directory gets mounted.

Is there a way to install ltsp without changing anything on current Router/DHSP and everything related?
That works!
However, idk why but hte host boots very slowly, like minute or two. systemd-analyze shows that system booted in 36 seconds, I think the problem is in iPXE, it is not using the full speed of network (Epoptes network benchmark showed ~900 mb/s).
How can I speed up the booting time?

| alkisg | You can use http instead of tftp; check the ltsp discussions and issues, I think a small how-to is mentioned there somewhere | 05:54:04 |

| Andy Antares | This only looks like a solution, but idk if it works in my case when proxydhcp=0 | 06:59:34 |
| Andy Antares |
while for real dhcp a small change would be needed.
Could you please specify what change did you mean?
| 07:43:05 |
| Andy Antares | Is there a way to customize Slick Greater in Mint? The changes I make on the server doesn't apply to clients even after "ltsp image /" | 09:43:15 |
| Andy Antares | Is it correct usage of multiple parameters in ltsp.conf?
LIGHTDM_CONF="greeter-hide-users=true"
LIGHTDM_CONF="greeter-setup-script=/usr/bin/numlockx on" | 09:47:18 |
| alkisg | Andy Antares: no, you need something like:
LIGHTDM_CONF="line1
line2" | 15:44:27 |
| Andy Antares | Thank you!
Also there are kernel parameters, I want to append them with quiet splash. If I write it in ltsp.conf, will it override current kernel parameters? If so, how to check the current parameters to just append them? | 16:45:13 |
| alkisg | https://ltsp.org/man/ltsp.conf/#KERNEL_PARAMETERS | 17:22:59 |
| alkisg | It will append to the necessary/default kernel parameters, it won't delete them | 17:23:18 |
