I've just got K12 LTSP 5.0 loaded on a PC at our school -- install went
smooth - I did a custom install adding server packages etc. I'm on the
schools network (obviously I'm in DHCP mode) and have connectivity to the
net.
I have 2 immediate next steps:
1 - Run updates to get everything updated ---- running the Package Updater
give an error message - Unable to retrieve update info
unable to retrieve software info ---- Network Issue ?
As mentioned I have network connectivity via the browser ---- not sure if
there may be firewall issues upsteam ?
Suggestions ?
2. Start to configure the system into a basic file server:
-Goal #1 is to get another PC running XP to login and have access to a
folder / file share
-Goal #2 do the same thing with a Mac running OSX
A lot of the files on http://k12linux.org/network.html seem
to lead to the dreaded 404 page. Any suggestions on were to start or where
to find documentation germane to this distribution -- Help
Lastly ----- Can any of you recommend some Linux books or generic
reference books on networking (from newbs to intermediate levels) --- I
used to do this stuff 16yrs ago but man have I forgot a bunch of stuff
THANKS !!!
