[X2go-dev] x2go thin client session configuration

[Neil W. Hunt]

Phillip,

thanks so much for the help and pointer to the script. A couple questions:

1. I see the /opt/x2gothinclient/etc/init.d/ramdrive script, however I don't see S*ramdrive anywhere in my /opt/x2gothinclient/etc/rc*.d directories - does this mean it isn't running at startup? If it is running at startup, how is it being executed? If not, does that mean my /ramdrive isn't even being created and mounted?

2. I also see in your script these lines: 

chroot /opt/x2gothinclient rm -f /etc/rcS.d/S05bootlogd /etc/rcS.d/S08pcmciautils /etc/rcS.d/S09checkroot.sh /etc/rcS.d/S11checkfs.sh /etc/rcS.d/S12resize_lvm /etc/rcS.d/S16readahead-desktop /etc/rcS.d/S19portmap /etc/rcS.d/S20nfs-common /etc/rcS.d/S26cryptdisks-early /etc/rcS.d/S28cryptdisks /etc/rcS.d/S30checkfs.sh /etc/rcS.d/S45mountnfs.sh /etc/rcS.d/S46mountnfs-bootclean.sh /etc/rcS.d/S99stop-bootlogd-single /etc/rc2.d/S99stop-bootlogd

chroot /opt/x2gothinclient mv /etc/rc2.d/S20x2gothinclient /etc/rc2.d/S90x2gothinclient

It looks like you are doing some shifting of sorts on the process boot order. Can you offer any insight into what you were doing there?

Hi,

it's been a while since I did this, but I saved my work here:
http://blog.debalance.de/?p=125

In my case, the sessions file is stored on the server as
/opt/x2gothinclient/usr/share/x2goclient/sessions where
/opt/x2gothinclient is my chroot.

During startup, there is a
cp /usr/share/x2goclient/sessions /ramdrive/x2goclient/.x2goclient/sessions
in the startup script /opt/x2gothinclient/etc/init.d/ramdrive .

The whole thinclient works on a read only nfs-root, so obviously changes
cannot be saved. However, I can do temporary ones due to the ramdrive.

In my case I set x2goclient up to automatically connect to a server
specified by me.


The details can be found in the script linked in my blogpost mentioned
above.

Hope that helps!

Regards,
