How to manage fatclient with epoptes from standalone

Asked by kriaton

Hi,

I've got a ltsp server (Ubuntu 12.04 32b) and 24 fatclients with automatic login and epoptes-client configured. I can access and manage client on server with gui, but I'd like to manage them in the lab from teacher's workstation. I've installed epoptes on it and modified "/etc/default/epoptes-client" on chroot for this new "server", but workstation cannot see fatclient on epoptes gui because users on fatclient are members of ltsp server's epoptes group and not of workstation's group.
Any idea to solve?

Thanx a lot

On the LTSP server:
sudo chroot /opt/ltsp/i386
epoptes-client -c <ip-of-teacher-workstation>
# You already modified /etc/default/epoptes-client in the chroot so you don't need to do that step
exit
sudo ltsp-update-image

Reboot clients and see if it works.

I've tried but workstation doesn't see epoptes client. On the client I've tried "/usr/sbin/epoptes-client" but I have no answer:
* Epoptes-client connecting to 192.168.1.101:789...

I've solved reinstalling epoptes-client on chroot.
Thank you very much
