Improve ltsp-manager #2

Open dashohoxha opened 6 years ago

dashohoxha commented 6 years ago

Experiment with ltsp-manager.

Do we need to build a Debian package for ltsp-manager? What features can be added to ltsp-manager to make it more flexible and more easy to use?

vagrantc commented 6 years ago

There is already a package in Debian experimental: https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/ltsp-manager

@vagrantc thanks for your comment. Actually @d78ui98 has noticed that there is already such a package for Debian, and we have agreed that this is Ok (no need to build a new package).

About improving ltsp-manager, I am thinking about automating some tasks that usually need some manual changes to configuration files. For example enabling guest login on ltsp clients, enabling auto-login on ltsp clients, etc.

Another improvement is configuring automatically the server to support RaspberryPi clients. Most probably this will require a thin client configuration of the LTSP server.

The code of ltsp-manager: https://git.launchpad.net/ltsp-manager/tree/share/ltsp-manager

@d78ui98 I think that you don't have much experience with Python programming (and neither do I), so it can be difficult for you to change and improve ltsp-manager in the remaining time of the project (about one month). So, maybe we should leave out this task, and it can possibly be a topic for another GSoC project. What do you think?

d78ui98 commented 6 years ago

Yes, It will probably be the best.
