This is the manual for the Debian Edu Buster 10+edu0 release.
The version at http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/Documentation/Buster is a wiki and updated frequently.
Debian Edu 亦称 Skolelinux 是一个基于 Debian 的 Linux 发布版提供一个开箱即用的已完全配置的学校网络环境。
The chapters about hardware and network requirements and about the architecture contain basic environment details.
After installation of a main server all services needed for a school network are set up and the system is ready to be used. Only users and machines need to be added via GOsa², a comfortable Web-UI, or any other LDAP editor. A netbooting environment using PXE has also been prepared, so after initial installation of the main server from CD, Blu-ray disc or USB flash drive all other machines can be installed via the network, this includes "roaming workstations" (ones that can be taken away from the school network, usually laptops or netbooks) as well as PXE booting for diskless machines like traditional thin clients.
Several educational applications like GeoGebra, GCompris, Kalzium, KGeography, GNU Solfege and Scratch are included in the default desktop setup, which can be extended easily and almost endlessly via the Debian universe.
Skolelinux 是由 Debian Edu 项目制作的一个 Linux 发布版。作为 Debian 正式子项目 Debian Pure Blends 发布。
Skolelinux 是提供开箱即用的完全配置学校网络环境的 Debian 版而用于你的学校的方法。
Skolelinux 项目在 2001 年 7 月 2 日启动于挪威而大约在同时 Raphaël Hertzog 在法国开始了 Debian-Edu。直到 2003 年两个项目合为一体,而维持了两者的名称。"Skole" 和 (Debian-)"Education" 在这些范围中正是两个好领会的措辞。
起初在挪威的主要目标群体是学校适合 6-16 岁年龄组。现在这个系统在世界上的一些国家使用,大多数安装在挪威,西班牙,德国和法国。
文档的这部分叙述 Skolelinux 安装所提供的网络架构和服务。
该图是假设网络拓扑草图。缺省设置的 Skolelinux 网络假设一个(并且只一个)主服务器,允许包含常规工作站和 LTSP 服务器(以连接瘦客户端和/或无盘工作站)两者。工作站的数目可大可小如你所需(从一个没有到大量启动的)。这同样适用于 LTSP 服务器,其每个是在分开的网络因而客户端和 LTSP 服务器之间的流量不影响其余的网络服务器。
在每个学校网络中仅能有一个主服务器的原因是主服务器提供 DHCP,因而在每一网络中只能一台机器在工作。能够从主服务器向其他机器迁移服务而该服务在另一机器上就绪,随后更新 DNS 配置,为服务指出 DNS 别名到正确的计算机。
In order to simplify the standard setup of Skolelinux, the Internet connection runs over a separate router, also called gateway. See the Internet router chapter for details how to set up such a gateway if it is not possible to configure an existing one as needed.
DHCP on the main server serves the 10.0.0.0/8 network, providing a PXE boot menu where you can choose whether to install a new server/workstation, boot a thin client or a diskless workstation, run memtest, or boot from the local hard disk.
This is designed to be modified; for details, see the related HowTo chapter.
DHCP on the LTSP servers only serves a dedicated network on the second interface (192.168.0.0/24 and 192.168.1.0/24 are preconfigured options) and should seldom need to be changed.
在 LDAP 中所含有的所有子网配置。
一个 Skolelinux 网络需要一个主服务器(也称作 "tjener" 是挪威语“服务器”的意思)预先缺省 IP 地址为 10.0.2.2 并由选择主服务器配置文件 (profile) 而安装。除了主服务器profile之外还能(但不依赖)选择并安装 LTSP 服务器和工作站配置文件 (profile)。
With the exception of the control of the thin clients, all services are initially set up on one central computer (the main server). For performance reasons, the LTSP server(s) should be separate (though it is possible to install both the Main Server and LTSP Server profiles on the same machine). All services are allocated a dedicated DNS-name and are offered exclusively over IPv4. The allocated DNS name makes it easy to move individual services from the main server to a different machine, by simply stopping the service on the main server, and changing the DNS configuration to point to the new location of the service (which should be set up on that machine first, of course).
通过网络传输的密码是encrypted保证所有连接安全,那样没有密码是作为普通文本通过网络发送。
以下是在 Skolelinux 网络中缺省设置的服务及其每一服务的 DNS 名称的列表。如有可能所有配置文件会以名称(无域名)关联到服务于是易于学校改变或者它们的域(如果它们有自己的 DNS 域)或是它们所使用的 IP 地址。

每个用户的个人文件保存在他们的主目录中,由服务器做得到。主目录可从所有机器进入,给予用户无论他们使用那个机器而可以存取相同文件。不可知操作系统的服务器,通过 NFS 的 Unix 客户端,SMB 的 Windows 和 Macintosh 客户端提供存取通路。
By default email is set up for local delivery (i.e. within the school) only, though email delivery to the wider Internet may be set up if the school has a permanent Internet connection. Clients are set up to deliver mail to the server (using 'smarthost'), and users can access their personal mail through IMAP.
所有服务使用同一个用户名和密码可以进入,得益于中央用户数据库的验证和授权。
使用 web 代理在本地 (Squid) 贮存文件在经常访问的位置提升性能。还能在单独的机器上一同做路由上限制的 web 流量与互联网访问的控制。
Network configuration on the clients is done automatically using DHCP. All types of clients can be connected to the private 10.0.0.0/8 subnet and will get according IP addresses; LTSP clients should be connected to the corresponding LTSP server via the separate subnet 192.168.0.0/24 (this is to ensure that the network traffic of the LTSP clients doesn't interfere with the rest of the network services).
中央日志为所有机器发送日志信息到服务器而设置。日志服务设置仅为接收从本地网络到来的信息。
缺省的 DNS 服务器仅用内部域 (*.intern) 设置,直到实在的(“外部的”)DNS 域可以被设置。该 DNS 服务器为其网络上的所有机器可以用其作为主 DNS 服务器而设置作为缓存 DNS 服务器。
学生和教师有能力发布网站。该 web 服务器提供认证用户的程序,并对某用户和组群限制访问个人页面。作为 web 服务器能在服务器一侧安排,而用户将有能力创作有力的网页。
有关用户和机器的信息可以在一处中央位置被转换,让在其网络上的所有计算机可以自动使用。做到中央目录服务器的设置。该目录将有用户,用户组,机器,以及机器组的信息。不想在文件组,邮件列表之间有任何不同而避免用户混淆。机器组必然形成将使用与用户组和邮件列表名称空间相同的网络组。
服务和用户的管理将主要通过 web,并按照确定的标准,在 Skolelinux 的组件 web 浏览器中良好运作。代表委派个别用户或用户组使具有管理系统的能力。
为了避免 NFS 的某个难题,而使之较简单地排除问题,彼此分别的机器需要同步时钟。Skolelinux 服务器设置为本地网络时间协议 (NTP) 服务器的实现,所有工作站和客户端设置与服务器同步。服务器自己将通过互联网的 NTP 上游机器同步它的时钟,以此保证整个网络有准确时间。
打印机便于连接,或是直接连到主网,或者连接到服务器,工作站抑或 LTSP 服务器。打印机的使用可由单独的用户按照他们所属组来控制;这将由打印机的使用限额和使用控制做到。
A Skolelinux network can have many LTSP servers (which we called "thin client servers" in releases before Stretch), which are installed by selecting the LTSP Server profile.
LTSP 服务器设置接收来自瘦客户端和工作站的日志,并转递这些信息到中央日志接受者。
Please note:
Thin clients are using the programs installed on the server.
Diskless workstations are using the programs installed in the server's LTSP chroot.
For LTSP clients a more lightweight desktop environment should be used; this can be set at installation time, see the Installation chapter for details.
The client root filesystem is provided using NBD (Network Block
Device). After each modification to the LTSP chroot the related NBD image
has to be re-generated; run
ltsp-update-image
on the LTSP server.
A thin client setup enables ordinary PCs to function as (X-)terminals. This means that the machine boots directly from the server using PXE without using the local client hard drive. The thin client setup used is that of the Linux Terminal Server Project (LTSP).
Thin clients are a good way to make use of older, weaker machines as they effectively run all programs on the LTSP server. This works as follows: the service uses DHCP and TFTP to connect to the network and boot from the network. Next, the file system is mounted from the LTSP server using NBD, and finally the X Window System is started. The display manager (LDM) connects to the LTSP server via SSH with X-forwarding. This way all data is encrypted on the network.
对于无盘工作站还使用的说法是 "stateless workstations", "lowfat clients" 或者 "half-thick clients"。为了清晰起见本手册定名为 "diskless workstations"。
无盘工作站在个人计算机上运行所有软件而没有在本地安装操作系统。这意味客户端机器直接从服务器的硬盘驱动器引导而运行的软件没有安装在本地硬盘驱动器上。
无盘工作站是以与瘦客户端一样的低维护成本再利用较旧(但有能力)的硬件的极佳方法。在服务器上管理和维护软件而不需要在客户端本地安装软件。主目录和系统设置也保存在服务器上。
All the Linux machines that are installed with the Skolelinux installer will be administrable from a central computer, most likely the server. It will be possible to log in to all machines via SSH (by default, root is not allowed to log in with password), and thereby have full access to the machines.
所有用户信息保留在 LDAP 目录中。用户帐号的更新对照这个数据库,用于客户端的用户验证。
现在有两个类型的安装媒体镜像:网络安装 (CD) 和多架构 USB 闪存。两者的镜像还可以从 USB 棒被引导。
力求一旦能从任何类型的媒体安装服务器,而由网络引导在网络上安装其他客户端。
仅是网络安装镜像在安装的时候需要访问互联网。
除了想要的语言(如挪威布克莫尔语,Nynorsk, Sami)和机器配置文件(主服务器,工作站,LTSP 服务器,……)之外,安装不会问到任何问题。所有其他配置以合理值自动设置,随后系统管理员从中心位置更改来安装。
每个 Skolelinux 用户帐号在文件服务器上分配使用文件系统的一部分。这部分(主目录)包含用户的配置文件,电子文件和网页。一些文件会被设置为系统上其他用户读取,一些会是互联网上每个人可读,而一些除该用户之外不会为任何人读取。
保证用户目录或共享目录使用的所有磁盘在安装中可以跨越所有计算机被唯一命名,它们可以被作为
/skole/host/directory/
被挂载。最初,在文件服务器上创建的是一个目录,
/skole/tjener/home0/
,所有的用户帐号在那里创建。在需要提供特别的用户组或特别的用途模式时更多的目录能在那时被创建。
在标准 UNIX 许可系统下能够共享存取文件,用户需要附加到共享组(如 "students")而他们缺省是在个人基本组。如果用户有适当的umask来新建组权限项(002 或 007),而如果工作在setgid目录保证文件继承正确的组所有者,效果是组成员之间共享管理文件。
对新建文件的初始存取设置是一个方针问题。Debian 缺省umask是 022 (那会不允许组权限为described above),而 Debian
Edu 使用缺省 022 - 导致创建的文件对于所有的人有读权限,那可以稍迟由明确用户行为消除。这可以选择改变(编辑
/etc/pam.d/common-session
)为 007 的umask -
导致首先阻止读权限,制定他们的权限是必要的用户行为。这第一个接近促进知识的共享,并使系统更透明,而第二个方法降低不想要敏感信息散布的风险。第一个方案的问题是用户不清楚他们建立的资料会对所有其他用户有访问权限。他们可能仅由查看其他用户的目录发现看到能辨认为他们的文件。第二个方法具有的问题是少数人适合制定他们的文件权限,即使如果他们不包含敏感信息而其内容会帮助到想要得知其他解答个人问题的好打听用户(典型的配置争议)。
这是设置 Skolelinux 方案的不同方法。它可以被安装在一台单独应用的个人计算机上,或作为许多学校操作中心的整体方案。这个灵活性制定了网络部件,服务器和客户端机器的极为不同的配置。
不同profile的目的在 network architecture 章中解释。
如果计划使用 LTSP,需要看 LTSP 硬件需求
wiki 页面。
运行 Debian Edu / Skolelinux 的计算机必须有或是 32 位(Debian 架构 'i386',最陈旧被支持的处理器是 686 级)或者 64 位(Debian 架构 'amd64')x86 处理器。
At least 12 GiB RAM for 30 thin clients and 20 GiB RAM for 50-60 thin clients are recommended for the main and LTSP server profiles.
瘦客户端能够仅有 256 MiB RAM 而且是 400 MHz 的处理器,但推荐用更多的 RAM 和更快的处理器。
为 LTSP 客户端网络上的交换能是自动的;交换区大小是 512 MiB,而如果你需要更大可以通过编辑 tiener 服务器上的
/etc/ltsp/nbdswapd.conf
设置 SIZE 变化量来调整。
如果你的无盘工作站有硬盘驱动器,建议使用它们作为比网络交换快不少的交换区。
For workstations, diskless workstations and standalone systems, 1500 MHz and 1024 MiB RAM are the absolute minimum requirements. For running modern webbrowsers and LibreOffice at least 2048 MiB RAM is recommended.
有小内存的工作站如果交换空间也太小也许因 LibreOffice 的拼写检查而挂起。如果这经常发生可以由系统管理员禁用拼写检查。
最低限度的磁盘空间需求取决于所安装的profile:
combined main server + LTSP server: 70 GiB (plus additional space for user accounts).
LTSP 服务器:50 GiB。
工作站或独立系统:30 GiB。
LTSP 服务器在使用缺省网络架构时需要两个网卡:
eth0 连接到主网(10.0.0.0/8),
eth1 用于 LTSP 客户端的服务(192.168.0.0/24 作为缺省),但 others are possible.
笔记本电脑是可移动的工作站,因此它们有同工作站一样的需求。
在 http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/Hardware/
提供一个硬件测试列表。这个列表远不完整
http://wiki.debian.org/InstallingDebianOn 是一个写作如何在一些具体硬件上安装,配置和使用 Debian 文档的一个结果,让可能的购买者知道所支持的硬件和存在所有者知道如果从硬件中获得最合适的。
一个优秀的 Debian 所支持的硬件数据库在线于 http://kmuto.jp/debian/hcl/。
当使用缺省的网络架构时,这些规则适用:
你需要的正是主服务器,tjener。
你在主网上可以有上百工作站。
在主网上可以有许多 LTSP 服务器;两个分开的子网是在 LDAP 中预先配置的(DNS,DHCP),还能添加更多。
在每一个 LTSP 服务器网络上可以有上百的瘦客户端和/或无盘工作站。
可以有上百的其他机器会有充裕的 IP 地址来分配。
为了访问互联网你需要一个路由/网关(参看下面)。
路由/网关,在外部接口连接到互联网并在网络掩码 255.0.0.0 的 IP 地址 10.0.0.1 的内部接口运行,需要连接到互联网。
路由将不运行 DHCP 服务器,它可以运行 DNS 服务器,但这是不需要的而且也不会被使用。
已经有路由器但无法根据需要进行配置(由于技术原因不允许)的情况下,如果安装的是 Debian Edu ‘最小’配置,则具有两个网络接口的系统可能会变成网关。
安装之后:
调整 /etc/network/interfaces 文件。
将主机名永久修改为“gateway”。
为 10.0.0.0/8 网络启用 IP 转发和 NAT。
作为可选项,还可以安装防火墙和/或流量控制工具。
#!/bin/sh # Turn a system with profile 'Minimal' into a gateway/firewall. # sed -i 's/auto eth0/auto eth0 eth1/' /etc/network/interfaces sed -i '/eth1/ s/dhcp/static/' /etc/network/interfaces echo 'address 10.0.0.1' >> /etc/network/interfaces echo 'netmask 255.0.0.0' >> /etc/network/interfaces hostname -b gateway hostname > /etc/hostname service networking stop service networking start sed -i 's#NAT=#NAT="10.0.0.0/8"#' /etc/default/enable-nat service enable-nat restart # You might want a firewall (shorewall or ufw) and traffic shaping. #apt update #apt install shorewall # or #apt install ufw #apt install wondershaper
In case you are looking for a complete router firewall solution capable of running on an old PC, we recommend IPCop or floppyfw.
If you need something for an embedded router or accesspoint we recommend using OpenWRT, though of course you can also use the original firmware. Using the original firmware is easier; using OpenWRT gives you more choices and control. Check the OpenWRT webpages for a list of supported hardware.
能够使用不同的网络设置(是 documented procedure 所做),但如果你不以一个存在的网络基础结构勉强去做,我们建议预防那么做并建议你维持缺省状态的 网络结构。
We recommend that you read or at least take a look at the release notes for Debian Buster before you start installing a system for production use. There is more information about the Debian Buster release available in its installation manual.
Please give Debian Edu/Skolelinux a try, it should just work.
It is recommended, though, to read the chapters about hardware and network requirements and about the architecture before starting to install a main server.
Be sure to also read the getting
started chapter of this manual, as it explains how to log in for the
first time.
网络安装 CD,也可以用于从 USB 闪存安装,适合安装 i386 和 amd64 的机器。作为这个名称含有的意思,安装需要互联网访问。它可以获得自
rsync -v --progress
ftp.skolelinux.org::skolelinux-cd/debian-edu-10+edu0-CD.iso
./debian-edu-10+edu0-CD.iso
The multi-architecture ISO image is 5.5 GiB large and can be used for installation of amd64 and i386 machines, also without access to the Internet. Like the netinstall image it can be installed on USB flash drives or disk media of sufficient size. Like the others it can be downloaded over HTTP or rsync via:
rsync -v --progress
ftp.skolelinux.org::skolelinux-cd/debian-edu-10+edu0-USB.iso
./debian-edu-10+edu0-USB.iso
For those without a fast Internet connection, we can offer a CD or DVD sent
for the cost of the CD or DVD and shipping. Just send an email to cd@skolelinux.no and we will discuss
the payment details (for shipping and media). 记着在发送你需要 CD 或 DVD 的电子邮件中包含地址。
When you do a Debian Edu installation, you have a few options to choose from. Don't be afraid; there aren't many. We have done a good job of hiding the complexity of Debian during the installation and beyond. However, Debian Edu is Debian, and if you want there are more than 52,000 packages to choose from and a billion configuration options. For the majority of our users, our defaults should be fine. Please note: if LTSP is intended to be used, choose a lightweight desktop environment.
Typical school or home network with Internet access through a router providing DHCP:
Installation of a main server is possible, but after reboot there will be no internet access (due to primary network interface IP 10.0.2.2/8).
See the Internet router chapter for details how to set up a gateway if it is not possible to configure an existing one as needed.
Connect all components like shown in the architecture chapter.
The main server should have Internet connection once bootet the first time in the correct environment.
Typical school or institution network, similar to the one above, but with proxy use required.
Add 'debian-edu-expert' to the kernel command line; see further below for details how this is done.
Some additional questions must be answered, the proxy server related one included.
Network with router/gateway IP 10.0.0.1/8 (which does not provide a DHCP server) and Internet access:
As soon as the automatic network configuration fails (due to missing DHCP), choose manual network configuration.
Enter 10.0.2.2/8 as host IP
Enter 10.0.0.1 as gateway IP
Enter 8.8.8.8 as nameserver IP unless you know better
The main server should just work after the first boot.
Offline (no Internet connection):
Use the USB ISO image.
Make sure all (real/virtual) network cables are unplugged.
Choose 'Do not configure the network at this time' (after DHCP failed to configure the network and you pressed 'Continue').
Update the system once bootet the first time in the correct environment with Internet access.
KDE and GNOME both have good language support, but too big a footprint for both older computers and for LTSP clients.
MATE is lighter than the two above, but is missing good language support for several countries.
LXDE has the smallest footprint and supports 35 languages.
Xfce has a slightly bigger footprint than LXDE but a very good language support (106 languages).
Debian Edu as an international project has chosen to use Xfce as the default desktop; see below how to set a different one.
When installing a system with profile Workstation included, a lot of education related programs are installed. To install only the basic profile, remove the desktop=xxxx kernel command line param before starting the installation; see further below for details how this is done. This allows one to install a site specific system and could be used to speed up test installations.
Please note: If you want to install a desktop afterwards, don't use the Debian Edu meta-packages like e.g. education-desktop-mate because these would pull in all education related programs; rather install e.g. mate-desktop-environment instead.
For details about Debian Edu meta-packages, see the Debian Edu packages overview page.

In both cases, boot options can be edited by pressing the TAB key in the boot menu; the screenshot shows the command line for Graphical install.
{{attachment:BD_command_line.png}}
You can use an existing HTTP proxy service on the network to speed up the
installation of the main server profile from CD. Add
e.g.
mirror/http/proxy=http://10.0.2.2:3128/
as
an additional boot parameter.
如果你在一台机器上已经有安装好的主服务器profile,后续的安装会通过 PXE 完成,而这将自动使用主服务器代理。
To install the GNOME desktop instead of
the default Xfce desktop, replace
xfce
with
gnome
in the
desktop=xfce
parameter.
To install the LXDE desktop instead, use
desktop=lxde
.
To install the KDE Plasma desktop
instead, use desktop=kde
.
而改为安装 MATE 桌面,使用
desktop=mate
。
Remember the system requirements and make sure you have at least two network cards (NICs) if you plan on setting up an LTSP server.
选择一种语言(对于本安装及安装后的系统)。
选择一个区域那通常是你生活的地方。
选择键盘布局(缺省的地区通常很好)。
从以下列表中选择profile:
主服务器
This is the main server (tjener) for your school providing all services pre-configured to work out of the box. You must install only one main server per school! This profile does not include a graphical user interface. If you want a graphical user interface, then select Workstation or LTSP Server in addition to this one.
工作站
一台计算机从它的本地硬盘驱动器引导,并且如一台普通的计算机本地驱动运行全部软件,只是由主服务器认证用户登录,那里储存着用户的文件和桌面profile。
漫游工作站
同于工作站但能够使用贮藏资格认证,意味这可以在学校外的网络中使用。用户的文件和profile保存在本地硬盘上。对于单一的用户notebook和laptop在较早的发布版中建议不选择“工作站”或“独立安装”。
LTSP 服务器
A thin client (and diskless workstation) server, is called an LTSP server. Clients without hard drives boot and run software from this server. This computer needs two network interfaces, a lot of memory, and ideally more than one processor or core. See the chapter about networked clients for more information on this subject. Choosing this profile also enables the workstation profile (even if it is not selected) - an LTSP server can always be used as a workstation, too.
独立安装
普通的计算机可以不以主服务器运转(那是,它不需要在网络中)。包括笔记本。
最小安装
这个profile安装基本软件包并配置该机器融入 Debian Edu 网络,但没有任何服务和应用。它用作从主服务器手工移出单一服务的平台。
The Main Server, Workstation and LTSP Server profiles are preselected. These profiles can be installed on one machine together if you want to install a so called combined main server. This means the main server will be an LTSP server and also be used as a workstation. This is the default choice, since we assume most people will install via PXE afterwards. Please note that you must have 2 network cards installed in a machine which is going to be installed as a combined main server or as an LTSP server to become useful after the installation.
对自动分区说“是”或者“不”。要意识到说“是”将摧毁硬盘驱动器上的全部数据!而说“不”会依赖更多工作 - 你要保证需要的分区已经建立并且足够大。
请对 http://popcon.skolelinux.org/
说“是”来允许我们得知软件包的流行度并将被保留到将来的发布版中。尽管你不这样做,这却是你所做帮助的简单方法。
Wait. If the selected profiles include LTSP Server then the installer will spend quite some time at the end, "Finishing the installation - Running debian-edu-profile-udeb..."
给出 root 密码之后,你会被询问创建“非管理任务”的常规用户帐号。这是 Debian Edu 非常重要的帐号:你要使用这个帐号管理 Skolelinux 网络。
该用户的这个密码必须要有至少 5
个字符的长度 - 否则登录不会被认可(即使较短的密码为安装程序所接受)。
祝愉快
最合适你要使用的“漫游工作站”prolile(参看上面)。要知道所有数据保存在本地(那在备份上要用一些额外的任务)并储存登录证书(那么密码变更之后,如果你没有连接你的笔记本到网络并以新密码登录过可能依赖你的旧密码登录)。
在你从多架构 USB 闪存盘 /
蓝光光盘镜像安装之后,/etc/apt/sources.list
只会包含来自镜像的源。如果你有互联网连接,我们强烈建议为了获得可以被安装的安全更新而在其中添加如下数行:
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ buster main deb http://security.debian.org/ buster/updates main
网络安装(那是我们的 CD 所提供的安装类型)会从 CD 中取出一些软件包而其余的从网上取得。从网上取得的软件包数量从profile到profile而变化但维持在低于gigabyte(除非你选择安装所有可用的桌面)。一旦你安装了主服务器(无论单纯的主服务器或组合服务器不成问题),其后的安装会使用它自己的代理来避免从网上多次下载相同的软件包。
Providing the kernel boot parameter
edu-skip-ltsp-make-client
makes it possible
to skip one step which converts the LTSP chroot from a thin-client chroot
into a combined thin-client/diskless workstation chroot.
这适用于某状况,例如如果你需要一个单纯的瘦客户端 chroot 抑或如果在另一服务器上已有的无盘 chroot,那可以被同步。对这些状况略过这步会减少相当的安装时间。
在重复创建组合 chroot 中除了较长的安装时间外没有损害,那就是为什么由缺省完成。
自从 Squeeze 发布以来能够直接复制 CD/DVD/蓝光光盘.iso
镜像到
USB 闪存驱动器(也称作“USB 棒”)并从它们引导。简单地执行像这样的一个命令,仅修改为你所需要的文件和驱动器名称:
sudo dd if=debian-edu-amd64-i386-XXX.iso of=/dev/sdX
bs=1024
取决于你选择了哪个镜像,USB 闪存驱动器会表现得就像 CD 或者蓝光光盘。
对于这个安装方法依赖于你要运行主服务器。当客户端通过主网引导时,显示一个有安装程序和引导选项的新 PXE 菜单。如果有一个错误信息要求 XXX.bin
文件未见而 PXE 安装失败,那最可能的是客户端网卡依赖非自由固件。在这种情况中 Debian 安装程序的 initrd
必需被修改。这可以在服务器上执行命令:
/usr/share/debian-edu-config/tools/pxe-addfirmware
来完成。
这是仅有主服务器 profile PXE 菜单看到的样子:
{{attachment:pxe-tjener.png}}
This is how the PXE menu looks with the Main Server and LTSP Server profiles:
{{attachment:28-Diskless-WS-GRUB_Boot_menu-PXE.png}}
若要安装你所选择的桌面环境而不是默认的,按 tab 键并编辑内核引导选项 (像上文)。
这个设置也允许无盘工作站和瘦客户端在主网上被引导。不像工作站,无盘工作站没有用 GOsa² 被添加到 LDAP,但可以,为示例如果你想要强行主机名。
更多关于网络客户端的信息可以在 Network clients HowTo 章中被找到。
PXE 安装使用 debian 安装程序 preseed 文件,那可以被修改来询问安装更多的软件包。
类似随后的一行需要添加到
tjener:/etc/debian-edu/www/debian-edu-install.dat
d-i pkgsel/include string my-extra-package(s)
PXE 安装使用
/var/lib/tftpboot/debian-edu/install.cfg
和在
/etc/debian-edu/www/debian-edu-install.dat
中的 presseeding 文件。这些文件可以被改变来安排用在安装时的 presseding,来避免在通过网络安装时更多的提问。另一个方法是在
/etc/debian-edu/pxeinstall.conf
和
/etc/debian-edu/www/debian-edu-install.dat.local
提供附加设置并运行 /usr/sbin/debian-edu-pxeinstall
来更新已生成的文件。
Further information can be found in the manual of the Debian Installer.
要禁止或变更通过 PXE 安装时代理的使用,在
tjener:/etc/debian-edu/www/debian-edu-install.dat
中包含
mirror/http/proxy
,mirror/ftp/proxy
和 preseed/early_command
的数行需要被改变。要禁止安装时代理的使用,在最初两行的前面放置 '#',并从其末尾移除 "export
http_proxy="http://webcache:3128";
" 部分。
由于 preseeding 文件被下载之前已需要一些设置可以不被preseeded。这些被配置的 PXElinux 基本中的引导主题可从
/var/lib/tftproot/debian-edu/install.cfg
得到。语言,键盘布局和桌面是上述设置的实例。
创建定制 CD,DVD 或蓝光光盘因我们使用 Debian 安装器而相当容易,有模块化设计及其他宜人特性。Preseeding 允许你定义回答正常提问的问题。
那样你所有需要做的是以你的回答(这个在 Debian 安装程序手册的附录里叙述)和 remaster the CD/DVD 创建一个 preseeding 文件。
文本方式和图形安装有相同的功能 - 仅是外观不同。图形方式提供使用鼠标的机会,自然看着最宜人并且更新颖。除非用图形方式硬件有困难,那没有理由不使用它。
So here is a screenshot tour through a graphical 64-bit Main Server + Workstation + LTSP Server installation and how it looks at the first boot of the main server, a PXE boot on the workstation network and on the LTSP client network:

主服务器安装时已创建了第一个用户的帐号。在后续文字中这个帐号会作为“首用户”被提到。这个帐户是特殊的,因为没有 Samba 帐号(可以通过 GOsa²
来添加),其主目录允许设置为 700(那样需要 chmod o+x ~
来让个人网页可以被访问),而首用户可以使用 sudo
成为 root。
See the information about Debian Edu specific file system access configuration before adding users; adjust to your site's policy if needed.
安装之后,作为首用户的你需要做的第一件事是:
Log into the server.
Add users with GOsa².
以 GOsa² 添加工作站 - 瘦客户端和无盘工作站可以直接使用而不用这个步骤。
在下面详细讲述添加用户和工作站,请完整阅读这章。包括如何正确进行这些最少步骤以及,每个人大概会需要做的其他材料。
There is additional information available elsewhere in this manual: the New features in Buster chapter should be read by everyone who is familiar with previous releases. And for those upgrading from a previous release, make sure to read the Upgrades chapter.
如果普通的 DNS 流量阻塞你的外部网络而你需要使用某个特定的 DNS 服务器来查找互联网主机,你需要告知这个 DNS
服务器作为它的“转发器”来使用这一服务器。
这里的 HowTo 一章涵盖了更多的提示和技巧以及一些经常被问及的问题。
{{attachment:27-Tjener-KDE_Desktop.png}}
GOsa² 是一个可以帮助管理你的 Debian Edu 设置的一些重要部分的基于 web 的管理工具。使用 GOsa² 你可以管理(添加,修改,或者删除)这些主要的组:
用户管理
组管理
NIS 网络组管理员
计算机管理
DNS 管理
DHCP 管理
为了访问 GOsa² 你需要 Skolelinux 主服务器和一个有 web 浏览器的(客户端)系统,而如果是作为称作组合服务器(主服务器 + LTSP 服务器 + 工作站配置)来安装就可以是主服务器自身。如果上面提到的全都没有,请参阅:在主服务器上安装图形环境来使用 GOsa²。
从一个 web 浏览器中使用这个 URL https://www/gosa 来访问 GOsa²,并作为首用户登录。
If you are using a new Debian Edu Buster machine, the site certificate will be known by the browser.
否则,你将收到有关 SSL 证书有误的错误消息。如果你知道是独自在你的网络上,就告诉浏览器接受它并忽略那个。
对于总体上的 GOsa² 信息请参看:https://oss.gonicus.de/labs/gosa/wiki/documentation。
在 GOsa² 登录之后你会看到 GOsa² 的概览页面。
接下来,你可以在菜单里选择一个任务或者在综览页面中点击任何任务图标。为了导航,我们建议使用屏幕左侧的菜单,它将保持显示在所有 GOsa² 所提供的管理页面中。
在 Debian Edu 中,账户,组,和系统信息保存在一个 LDAP 目录里。这个数据不仅用于主服务器,而且也用于网络中的(无盘)工作站,LTSP 服务器和 Windows 机器,关于学生,教师,等的账户信息仅需要输入一次。之后由 LDAP 提供信息,在整个 Skolelinux 网络中的所有系统获得该信息。
GOsa² 是一种使用 LDAP 来存储其信息并提供分层的部门结构的管理工具。你可以为每个“部门”添加使用者账户,组,系统,网络组,等等。取决于你所设计的结构,你可以用 GOsa²/LDAP 中的部门结构迁移你的组织结构进入 Debian Edu 主服务器的 LDAP 数据树中。
A default Debian Edu main server installation currently provides two "departments": Teachers and Students, plus the base level of the LDAP tree. Student accounts are intended to be added to the "Students" department, teachers to the "Teachers" department; systems (servers, Skolelinux workstations, Windows machines, printers etc.) are currently added to the base level. Find your own scheme for customising this structure. (You can find an example how to create users in year groups, with common home directories for each group in the HowTo/AdvancedAdministration chapter of this manual.)
根据你要处理的任务(管理用户,管理组,管理系统等),GOsa² 会在所选部门(或基础层)上呈现不同的视图。
首先,点击左边导航菜单中的“用户”。屏幕右侧会转为显示一个有“学生”和“教师”以及 GOsa² 超级管理员(那第一个被创建的用户)账户。上面这个表中你可以看到一个称作 Base 的字段而允许你引导通过你的树状结构(在那个区域移动你的鼠标会呈现一个下拉菜单)并为你想要的操作(例如添加一个新用户)选择一个基本折叠。
接下来你可以在树状导航项目中看到“操作”菜单。在这一项上面移动你的鼠标一个子菜单呈现在屏幕上;选择其中的“创建”,而后是“用户”。你将由用户创建向导来指导。
最重要的是添加模板(新学生或新教师)和你的用户的全名(见图)。
当你跟随向导时,你将看到 GOsa² 根据真实姓名自动生成用户名。它自动选择一个尚不存在的用户名,那么有相同全名的多类用户不是问题。注意如果全名中包含非 ASCII 字节 GOsa² 可能生成无效的用户名。
如果你不喜欢生成的用户名,你可以在下拉框中选择其他用户名,但你在向导中没有自由选择。(如果你想要能够编辑提议的用户名,用一个编辑器打开
/etc/gosa/gosa.conf
并添加
allowUIDProposalModification="true"
作为附加选项到
"location definition"。)
在向导完成后,你将看到新用户对象的 GOsa² 屏幕。使用上端的标签检查全部字段。
创建用户后(无需自定义字段,向导现在已经为空),点击右下角的“确定”按钮。
作为最后一步,GOsa² 会询问新用户的密码。键入两次之后点击右下角的“设置密码”。 某些字符可能不被允许作为密码的一部分。
如果一切顺利,你现在可以在用户列表中看到新用户。你现在能以那个新用户名登录你的网络中的任何 Skolelinux 机器。
要修改或删除用户,使用 GOsa² 浏览在你的系统中的用户列表。在屏幕中部你能够打开“过滤”框,一个由 GOsa² 提供的搜索工具。如果你不知道你的用户账户在树状结构中的确切位置,转变 GOsa²/LDAP 树的基本层并以“在子树中搜索”选项标记搜索。
When using the "Filter" box, results will immediately appear in the middle of the text in the table list view. Every line represents a user account and the items farthest to the right on each line are little icons that provide actions for you: edit user, lock account, set password and remove user.
将会显示一个新页面,你可以在哪里直接修改有关用户的信息,更改用户的密码和修改用户所属的组列表。
学生可以使用自己的用户名登录 GOsa² 来更改自己的密码。在桌面系统(或系统设置)菜单提供的易于访问的 GOsa² 入口,称为 Gosa。一个已登录的学生会被显示在一个很小版本的 GOsa² 中,仅允许访问这个学生自己的账户数据表单以及设置密码对话框。
以自己的用户名登录的教师在 GOsa² 中有特殊的权限。显示更多的 GOsa² 特权视图,并可以更改所有学生账户的密码。这应该非常适合年级期间。
以管理方式为用户设置新密码
搜索要修改的用户,如上所述
点击用户名所在行尾的钥匙符号
在随后提供的页面上,你可以设置自己选择的新密码
谨防蕴含易于猜测密码的安全!
可以通过使用 CSV 文件用 GOsa² 大量创建用户,可以使用任何好的电子表格软件(例如, localc
)。至少,为随后的字段输入提供:uid,姓,名字和密码。确定在 uid 字段中没有重复的记录。请注意应该检查重复的
LDAP 中已经存在的 uid 记录(由在命令行中执行 getent passwd | grep tjener/home
| cut -d":" -f1
而得到)。
上述 CSV 文件格式指标(GOsa² 对之相当不容):
使用“,”作为字段分隔符
不要使用引号
CSV 文件不必包含一个标题行(通常包含分类的列名)
这些字段的顺序是不相关的,可以在 GOsa² 批量导入期间被定义
批量导入的步骤是:
点击左侧导航菜单中的“LDAP 管理器”链接
点击屏幕右侧的“导入”标签
浏览本地磁盘,并选择要导入的有用户列表的 CSV 文件
选择在批量导入期间应用的可用用户模板(如NewTeacher或NewStudent)
点击右下角的“导入”按钮
首先做一些测试是一个好主意,最好使用带有几个虚构用户的 CSV 文件,稍后可以删除。
Same applies to the password management module, which allows to reset a lot of passwords using a CSV file or to re-generate new passwords for users belonging to a special LDAP subtree.
组管理与用户管理非常相似。
你可以输入每个组的名称和描述。确定在创建新组时选择 LADP 树中右侧水平位置。
默认下,不能创建合适的 Samba 组。如果你在组创建时忽略了检查 Samba 组选项,可以在之后修改该组。
添加用户到新创建的组会带你返回用户列表,你最有可能使用过滤器框来查找用户。也会检查 LDAP 树层。
组管理中输入的组也是常规的 unix 组,因此也可以将它们用于文件权限。
机器管理基本上允许你管理 Debian Edu 网络中的所有联网设备。使用 GOsa² 添加到 LDAP 目录的每台机器有一个主机名,一个 IP 地址,一个 MAC 地址和一个域名(通常是“内部”)。完整的 Debian Edu 结构的描述参阅本手册的结构一章。
当连接到主网络时,无盘工作站和瘦客户端开箱即可工作。仅是有磁盘的工作站需要用 GOsa² 添加,但所有的都可以。
要添加机器,请使用 GOsa² 主菜单,系统,添加。你可以从预配置地址空间 10.0.0.0/8 中使用一个 IP 地址/主机名。目前只有两个预定义固定地址:10.0.2.2 (tjener) 和 10.0.0.1(网关)。从 10.0.16.20 到 10.0.31.254(粗略的 10.0.16.0/20 即 4000 主机)地址为 DHCP 和动态分配保留。
要在 GOsa² 中分配具有 MAC 地址为 52:54:00:12:34:10 的一个静态 IP 地址你需要输入这个 MAC 地址,主机名和其
IP;抑或可以点击建议 ip
按钮将在 10.0.0.0/8
中显示第一个自由的固定地址,如果以这种方式添加第一台机器,最有可能的是 10.0.0.2。应最好考虑有关你的网络:例如你将为服务器而使用 x>10
和 x<50 的 10.0.0.x,而对于工作站 x>100。不要忽略激活已正确添加的系统。除主服务器之外所有系统将在那时有一个相关的图标。
If the machines have booted as thin clients/diskless workstations or have
been installed using any of the networked profiles, the
sitesummary2ldapdhcp
script can be used to
automatically add machines to GOsa². For simple machines it will work out of
the box, for machines with more than one mac address the actually used one
has to be chosen, sitesummary2ldapdhcp -h
shows usage information. Please note, that the IP addresses shown after
usage of sitesummary2ldapdhcp
belong to the
dynamic IP range. These systems can then be modified to suit your network:
rename each new system, activate DHCP and DNS, add it to netgroups (see
screenshot below for recommended netgroups), reboot the system
afterwards. The following screenshots show how this looks in practice:
root@tjener:~# sitesummary2ldapdhcp -a -i ether-00:04:76:d3:28:b7 -t workstations info: Create GOsa machine for auto-mac-00-04-76-d3-28-b7.intern [10.0.16.21] id ether-00:04:76:d3:28:b7. Enter password if you want to activate these changes, and ^c to abort. Connecting to LDAP as cn=admin,ou=ldap-access,dc=skole,dc=skolelinux,dc=no enter password:
cronjob 更新 DNS 每小时运行一次; su -c ldap2bind
可用以手动触发更新。
使用 GOsa² 添加一台机器到 LDAP 树中之后,你可以修改其属性使用搜索功能并在计算机名称上点击 (与用户那样)。
这些系统的条目格式类似于一个你已经从修改用户条目所知道的,但在上下文间字段意味不同的事情。
例如,将机器添加到 NetGroup
不修改该机器或登录到该机器的用户的文件访问或命令执行权限;而是限制机器可以在主服务器上使用的服务。
默认安装提供网络组
cups-queue-autoflush-hosts
cups-queue-autoreenable-hosts
fsautoresize-hosts
ltsp-server-hosts
netblock-hosts
printer-hosts
server-hosts
shutdown-at-night-hosts
shutdown-at-night-wakeup-hosts-blacklist
winstation-hosts
workstation-hosts
目前 NetGroup
功能是用在
NFS。
主目录由主服务器导出被工作站和 LTSP 服务器挂载。由于安全原因,仅工作站主机,ltsp
服务器主机和服务器主机在内的主机网络组
可以挂载导出的共享 NFS。那么记住在 LDAP
树中所配置这些正确的机器种类以及配置从 LDAP 里所使用的静态 IP 地址是相当重要的。
记着用 GOsa² 正确地配置工作站和 LTSP 服务器,否则你的用户将无法访问他们的主目录。无盘工作站和瘦客户端不使用 NFS,那么它们不需要被配置。
fs-autoresize
这一组中的 Debian Edu 机器将自动调整运行空间不足的 LVM分 区大小。
夜晚关机
这一组的 Debian Edu 机器将在夜晚自动关闭以节省能源。
CUPS (cups-queue-autoflush-hosts 和 cups-queue-autoreenable-hosts)
这些组当中的 Debian Edu 机器将每天晚上自动刷新所有打印队列,并且每小时重新启用任何禁用的打印队列。
netblock-hosts
这组中的 Debian Edu 机器将只被允许连接到本地网络上的机器。结合 web 代理限制应被用在考试期间。
机器配置的另一个重要部分是“Samba 主机”标志(在“主机信息”区域)。如果你计划添加现有的 Windows 系统到 Skolelinux Samba 域,你需要添加 Windows 主机到 LDAP 树并设置能够连接该 Windows 主机到这一域的标志。有关添加 Windows 主机到 Skolelinux 网络的更多信息参看本手册的 HowTo/NetworkClients 一章。
For Printer Management point your web browser to https://www:631. This is the normal CUPS management interface where
you can add/delete/modify your printers and can clean up the printing
queue. By default only root is allowed but this can be changed: Open
/etc/cups/cups-files.conf with an editor and add one or more valid group
names matching your site policy to the line containing
SystemGroup lpadmin
. Existing GOsa² groups
that might be used are gosa-admins
and
printer-admins
(both with the first user as
member), teachers
and
jradmins
(no members after installation).
Debian Edu 中的默认配置为保持所有机器上的时钟同步,但时钟未必准确。NTP 用于更新时间。默认情况下,时钟将与外部源进行同步。如果在使用时创建,这会使机器保持外网连接打开。
如果您使用拨号或 ISDN ,且按分钟付费,您可能想要改变该默认设定。
要禁用与外部时钟的同步,需要修改主服务器和所有客户端以及 LTSP chroot 上的 /etc/ntp.conf 文件。在
server
记录前添加注释 ("#") 标记。这之后,NTP 服务器需要以 root
运行 /etc/init.d/ntp restart
来重启。如果机器使用外部时钟源要测试,运行 ntpq -c lpeer
。
由于自动分区可能出现的错误,安装后某些分区可能太满了。要扩充这些分区,以 root 运行
debian-edu-fsautoresize -n
。参看如何管理章节中如何“重新分划分区大小”的更多信息。
本节介绍如何使用 apt-get upgrade
。
使用 apt-get
其实很容易。要更新系统需要以 root
在命令行中执行两个命令:apt-get update
(更新可用软件包列表)和
apt-get upgrade
(对可以升级的软件包升级)。
As Debian Edu uses libpam-tmpdir, setting a per user TMP directory, it is a good idea to run apt-get without the TMP and TMPDIR variables set in the LTSP chroot. It is also a good idea to upgrade using the C locale to get known output and sorting order, even though that making a difference is a bug in a package.
LC_ALL=C apt-get update ; LC_ALL=C TMP= TMPDIR= ltsp-chroot apt-get update LC_ALL=C apt-get upgrade -y LC_ALL=C TMP= TMPDIR= ltsp-chroot -p apt-get upgrade -y ltsp-update-kernels # If a new kernel was installed ltsp-update-image
如果在 LTSP chroot 中安装了新内核,运行
ltsp-update-kernels
来保持内核与内核模块同步是重要的。当机器做
PXE 引导时内核通过 TFTP 分发,而内核模块来自 LTSP chroot。
运行
ltsp-update-image
重新生成 NBD 映像。
安装 cron-apt
和
apt-listchanges
并配置它们来发送邮件到你正在阅读的地址也是一个好主意。
cron-apt
每天通过电子邮件通知你有关可升级的任何软件包。它不安装这些升级,但下载它们(通常在夜间),那么当你执行 apt-get
upgrade
时不必等待下载。
如果希望更新可以容易地自动安装,仅需要以 wiki.debian.org/UnattendedUpgrades
中的讲述来配置 unattended-upgrades
软件包。在新的安全更新安装中默认启用。
apt-listchanges
可以通过电子邮件给你发送新变更日志记录,或者当在终端中运行 aptitude
或
apt-get
时显示它们。
作为上文所述运行 cron-apt
是获知已安装软件包安全更新的一个好方法。另一个保留相关安全更新通知的方法是订阅 Debian
安全通告邮件列表,那也有益于告诉你有关的安全更新。其缺点(对照
cron-apt
)是也包含未安装软件包的相关更新信息。
For backup management point your browser to https://www/slbackup-php. Please note that you need to access this site via SSL, since you have to enter the root password there. If you try to access this site without using SSL it will fail.
Note: the site will only work if you temporarily allow ssh root login on the
backup server (main server 'tjener' by default).
默认情况下 tjener 将备份
/skole/tjener/home0
,/etc/
,/root/.svk
和 LDAP 到 LVM 下的 /skole/backup。如果你仅想要有事物的备用复本(以防万一你删除它们)这个设置会很适合你。
要意识到这一备份方案不能从失灵的硬盘保护你。
如果你想要备份你的数据到外部服务器,磁带设备或者另一个硬盘你将需要修改这个存在的配置一点点。
如果您想恢复整个文件夹,最佳选择是使用如下命令行:
$ sudo rdiff-backup -r <date> \ /skole/backup/tjener/skole/tjener/home0/user \ /skole/tjener/home0/user_<date>
这将在 /skole/tjener/home0/user_<date>
文件夹中留下来自 /skole/tjener/home0/user
对于
<date>
的内容
如果您想恢复单个文件,您可以从网络界面上选择该文件(以及版本),并下载该文件。
如果要清除较旧的备份,在备份页面的菜单中选择“维护”并选择要保留的最早的快照:
从 https://www/munin/ 可得到 Munin 趋势报告系统。它提供基于一天,星期,月和每年的系统监测曲线图,并且当系统管理员在查找瓶颈及系统问题根源时给以帮助。
使用 Munin 监控的机器列表,是根据报告到 sitesummary 的主机列表自动生成的。Munin 监控所有安装了 munin-node
软件包的主机。从安装机器直到 Munin 监控启动正常地要一天,因为执行 cron 排序的工作。要加速这个过程,以 root 在 sitesummary
服务器(正常是主服务器)上运行
sitesummary-update-munin
。这将更新
/etc/munin/munin.conf
文件。
收集的一组测量数据是在使用 munin-node-configure
程序的每台机器上自动生成而那些探测器插件从
/usr/share/munin/plugins/
可以得到并符号链接相关的那些到
/etc/munin/plugins/
。
Munin 的相关信息,可参见http://munin-monitoring.org/。
Icinga 系统和服务监控可从 https://www/icinga/ 得到。这组自动生成被监控机器和服务使用
sitesummary 系统汇集的信息。有主服务器和 LTSP
服务器配置的机器受到完全的监控,同时工作站和瘦客户端受到简单的监控。要在工作站上启用完全监控,在该工作站上安装
nagios-nrpe-server
软件包。
这个用户名是 icingaadmin
而其默认密码是
skolelinux
。出于安全原因,避免使用与 root 相同的密码。可以作为
root 运行以下命令来变更密码:
htpasswd /etc/icinga/htpasswd.users icingaadmin
在默认情况下 Icinga 不发送电子邮件。这可以在
/etc/icinga/sitesummary-template-contacts.cfg
中用 host-notify-by-email
和
notify-by-email
替换
notify-by-nothing
来改变。
Icinga 配置文件使用的是
/etc/icinga/sitesummary.cfg
。sitesummary
cron job 生成有主机和服务监控列表的
/var/lib/sitesummary/icinga-generated.cfg
。
额外的 Icinga 检查可以在
/var/lib/sitesummary/icinga-generated.cfg.post
文件中设置将其包含在生成的文件里。
有关 Icinga 的信息可以从 https://www.icinga.com/ 或者在
icinga-doc
软件包中获得。
以下是如何处理最常见的 Icinga 警告的说明。
该分区(示例中的 /usr/)太满。这一般有两个方法来处理:(1)移除一些文件或者(2)增加该分区的大小。如果该分区是 /var/,叫
apt-get clean
清理 APT 贮藏可以移除一些文件。如果在 LVM
卷组中有更多空间可以获得,运行 debian-edu-fsautoresize
程序可以帮助扩展该分区。要在每天自动运行这个程序,可以添加提及的主机到
fsautoresize-hosts
网络组。
可以获得升级的新软件包。必要的一些正常安全修正。要升级,以 root 在终端或者通过 ssh 登录运行 'apt-get upgrade
&& apt-get dist-upgrade'。在 LTSP 服务器,也要记着使用
ltsp-chroot apt-get update &<sp-chroot apt-get
upgrade
更新 LTSP chroot。
如果不想手工升级软件包并且信任 Debian 对于新版本所做的优秀工作,可以配置
unattended-upgrades
在每个夜晚自动升级所有新软件包。这将不会升级
LTSP chroot。
要升级 LTSP chroot,可以使用 ltsp-chroot apt-get update &&
ltsp-chroot apt-get upgrade
。在 64 位服务器上,将需要添加
-a i386
作为一个参数到 ltsp-chroot。在升更新这一主系统时更新该
chroot 是个好主意。
运行中的内核比最新安装的内核旧,需要重启来激活最新安装的内核。这通常相当急迫,作为新内核通常显示在 Debian Edu 修正的安全发布中。
The printer queues in CUPS have a lot of jobs pending. This is most likely
because of a unavailable printer. Disabled print queues are enabled every
hour on hosts that are member of the
cups-queue-autoreenable-hosts
netgroup, so
for such hosts no manual action should be required. The print queues are
emptied every night on hosts that are member of the
cups-queue-autoflush-hosts
netgroup. If a
host have a lot of jobs in their queue, consider adding this host to one or
both of these netgroups.
Sitesummary 用于从每台计算机收集信息并将其提交给中央服务器。这一汇集的信息可从
/var/lib/sitesummary/entries/
中获得。/usr/lib/sitesummary/
中的脚本可以得到生成的报告。
一个来自 sitesummary 的没有任何细节的简单报告可以从 https://www/sitesummary/ 获得。
一些关于 sitesummary 的文档可从 http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/HowTo/SiteSummary 获得
在阅读这一升级指南前,请注意真实升级你的生产服务器完全承担你自己的风险。Debian
Edu/Skolelinux 完全无担保,由适用法律许可范围。
Please read this chapter and the New features in Buster chapter of this manual completely before attempting to upgrade.
升级 Debian 从一个发行版到下一个通常相当容易。遗憾的是对于 Debian Edu 还不能真正在方法上修改配置文件。(参阅 Debian bug 311188 的更多信息)。升级仍然是能够做到的但是可能依赖一些工作。
一般来说,升级服务器比工作站更加困难,主服务器是最难升级的。无盘机器是容易的,如果未修改过作为它们的 chroot 环境,可以删除并重建它。如果有,这个 chroot 基本上相当工作站 chroot,如此也相当容易升级。
If you want to be sure that after the upgrade everything works as before, you should test the upgrade on a test system or systems configured the same way as your production machines. There you can test the upgrade without risk and see if everything works as it should.
确定也要阅读 Debian 安装手册中有关其当前稳定发布版的信息。
保持运行旧的稳定版数周长而等待一段时间也是明智的,那样其他人可以测试升级并提供他们测验的任何问题的文档。Debian Edu 旧稳定版在接下来的稳定版发布之后会受到继续支持一段时间,但当 Debian 终止对旧稳定版的支持时,Debian Edu 必然会同样做。
Be prepared: make sure you have tested the upgrade from Stretch in a test
environment or have backups ready to be able to go back.
Please note that the following recipe applies to a default Debian Edu main server installation (desktop=kde, profiles Main Server, Workstation, LTSP Server). (For a general overview concerning stretch to buster upgrade, see: https://www.debian.org/releases/buster/releasenotes)
不要使用 X,使用虚拟控制台,以 root 登录。
Please note one difference between apt
and
apt-get
: By default
apt-get
keeps downloaded packages,
apt
removes them from the cache (after
successful installation).
如果 apt
有错误而结束,尝试修正和/或运行 apt
-f install
然后再一次 apt -y
full-upgrade
。
首先确保当前系统是最新的:
apt update apt full-upgrade
清理软件包仓库:
apt-get clean
Prepare and start the upgrade to Buster:
sed -i 's/stretch/buster/g' /etc/apt/sources.list apt update apt full-upgrade
apt-list-changes:准备好阅读大量的消息;按 < 返回 > 向下滚动,<q> 离开这一页面。
Read all debconf information carefully, choose 'keep your currently-installed version' unless stated differently below; in most cases hitting return will be fine.
你将看到有关包配置的一些提示:
FIXME: list promps about package configuration here.
Get the new Debian Edu Buster artwork:
apt install debian-edu-artwork-softwaves # FIXME: adjust theme
重新启动后,再进行一些清理:
apt purge linux-image-4.9.0-* apt purge linux-headers-4.9.0-*
检查升级系统是否正常工作:
重启;以首个用户登录并测试
如果 GOsa² 图形用户界面正在工作,
如果能够连接 LTSP 客户端和工作站,
如果可以添加/删除系统的网络组成员资格,
如果可以发送和接收内部电子邮件,
如果可以管理打印机,
如果其他网站特定的事正在工作。
Do all the basic things like on the main-server and without doing the things not needed. And then do this in addition.
To enable LDAP connection, renew the server certificate:

Make sure you have enough disk space. LTSP uses Network Block Device (NBD). The NBD image file size is about 4 GiB (default installation). If the image is updated, another 4 GiB for a temporary file are needed.
Also please note that the default LTSP architecture was i386 for Stretch. See below how to create a chroot for 64-bit-PCs (amd64).
ltsp-chroot -m -a i386 apt update ltsp-chroot -m -a i386 apt -y full-upgrade sed -i 's/stretch/buster/g' /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/apt/sources.list ltsp-chroot -m -a i386 apt update ltsp-chroot -m -a i386 apt -y full-upgrade ltsp-chroot -m -a i386 apt -f install ltsp-chroot -m -a i386 apt -y full-upgrade
清理:
ltsp-chroot -m -a i386 apt --purge autoremove
在服务器端更新 LTSP 支持:
ltsp-update-kernels ltsp-update-sshkeys ltsp-update-image
为节省磁盘空间,可改为使用 ltsp-update-image -n
;参阅
man ltsp-update-image
。
On the LTSP server(s) the LTSP chroot could also be recreated. The new chroot will still support both thin-clients and diskless workstations. Please note: As of Buster, the LTSP chroot arch defaults to the one used for the server side.
移除 /opt/ltsp/i386
(或
/opt/ltsp/amd64
,取决于你的设置)。如果有充裕的磁盘空间,考虑备份它。
以 root 运行 debian-edu-ltsp --arch i386
(或
debian-edu-ltsp --arch amd64
)重新创建 chroot。
At least 20 GiB additional disk space on /opt is required.
Run "ltsp-build-client --arch amd64" to create chroot and NBD image.
Use "ldapvi -ZD '(cn=admin)'" to replace
i386
with
amd64
(dhcp statements in LDAP for one
dedicated network).
Run "service isc-dhcp-server restart".
Edit /etc/debian-edu/pxeinstall.conf (set ltsparch=amd64).
Run 'debian-edu-pxeinstall' to regenerate the PXE menu.
Run 'service nbd-service restart' to serve the new NBD file.
To upgrade from any older release, you will need to upgrade to the Stretch based Debian Edu release first, before you can follow the instructions provided above. Instructions are given in the Manual for Debian Edu Stretch about how to upgrade to Stretch from the previous release, Jessie. Likewise the Jessie manual describes how to upgrade from Wheezy.
起步和维护章节讲述 Debian Edu 如何开始以及如何做基本的维护工作。在这一章的叙述中有更多“进一步”的提示和技巧。
在 Debian Edu Squeeze 中引进的 etckeeper
(以前版本使用的
etcinsvk
已从 Debian 中移除),使用 git 作为版本控制系统跟踪
/etc/
中的所有文件。
这可以查看文件何时添加,更改和删除,以及文件如果是文本文件时发生的改变。这个 git 存储信息的仓库是在
/etc/.git/
中。
每个小时,任何更改都会自动记录,从而允许提取和审核配置历史记录。
在该历史中查看,使用 etckeeper vcs log
命令。检查两个时间点之间的差异,可以使用如 etckeeper vcs diff
的命令。
更多的信息参看 man etckeeper
的输出。
常用命令列表:
etckeeper vcs log etckeeper vcs status etckeeper vcs diff etckeeper vcs add . etckeeper vcs commit -a man etckeeper
在 Debian Edu 中,除了 /boot/
分区之外的所有分区是在逻辑 LVM
卷上。从 Linux 内核 2.6.10 以来,可以在它们被挂载时扩展分区。缩减分区仍然需要在该分区被卸载时发生。
避免创建非常大的分区(如,20GiB),因为在其上运行 fsck
或者当需要从备份恢复它们时需要时间。最好,如果可能,创建比一个很大分区较小的若干分区。
提供了助理脚本 debian-edu-fsautoresize
使其更易于扩展占满的分区。当应用时,它从
/usr/share/debian-edu-config/fsautoresizetab
,/site/etc/fsautoresizetab
和 /etc/fsautoresizetab
得到配置信息。它依照这些文件中提供的值,在出现太小的自由空间时建议扩展分区。当不用参数运行它时,将仅显示该命令需要扩展这个文件系统。需要参数
-n
来实际执行这些命令扩展这个文件系统。
这个脚本每小时在列于 fsautoresize-hosts
网络组中的每个客户端被自动执行。
当调整 Squid 代理所使用的分区大小时,还需要更新
etc/squid/squid.conf
中缓存大小的值。提供的这个助理脚本
/usr/share/debian-edu-config/tools/squid-update-cachedir
自动去做,检查当前分区 /var/spool/squid/
的大小并配置 Squid
使用其 80% 作为它的缓存大小。
逻辑卷管理 (LVM) 能够使被挂载并在使用的分区重分划大小。可以从 LVM HowTo 中学到更多有关 LVM。
简单地指令 lvextend
命令需要增加多大来手动扩展一个逻辑卷。例如,使用下述命令来扩展 home0 到 30GiB:
lvextend -L30G /dev/vg_system/skole+tjener+home0 resize2fs /dev/vg_system/skole+tjener+home0
通过附加 30GiB 来扩展 home0,插入一个“+”(-L+30G)
如果(大概意外地)安装了一个纯主服务器 profile 而没有一个便于使用的 web 浏览器的客户端,作为这一主服务器安装时创建的用户(第一个用户)在(非图形)shell 中使用这个命令序列在该主服务器上安装一个最小桌面是容易的:
$ sudo apt update $ sudo apt install education-desktop-xfce lightdm ### after installation, run 'sudo service lightdm start' ### login as first user
ldapvi 是一个在命令行中以常规文本编辑器编辑 LDAP 数据库的工具。
下面需要执行:
ldapvi --ldap-conf -ZD '(cn=admin)'
Note: ldapvi
will use whatever is the
default editor. By executing export
EDITOR=vim
in the shell prompt one can configure the
environment to get a vi clone as editor.
用 ldapvi 添加 LDAP 对象,使用带有字符串的对象序列号加
在新的 LDAP
对象的前面。
提醒:
ldapvi
是一个强有力的工具。当心而不弄乱 LDAP
数据库,同样的提醒适用于 JXplorer。
如果希望使用图形用户界面来处理 LDAP 数据库,查看 jxplorer
软件包,默认情况下已安装。要获得写访问连接像这样:
host: ldap.intern port:636 Base dn:dc=skole,dc=skolelinux,dc=no Security level: ssl + user + password User dn: cn=admin,ou=ldap-access 当询问证书时点击 "This session only"。
ldap-createuser-krb
是一个在 Kerberos 里创建 LDAP
用户和设置其密码的小命令行工具。虽然,几乎是用于测试。
自 2011 年 Squeeze 发布以来,Debian 已经在 stable-updates 套件里包含了以前在 volatile.debian.org 中维护的软件包。
While you can use stable-updates directly, you don't have to: stable-updates are pushed into the stable suite regularly when stable point releases are done, which roughly happens every two months.
运行 Debian Edu 是选择了它的稳定。Debian Edu 运行得令人满意;这正是一个难题:有时候你喜欢的软件有一点儿过时。这里介入了 backports.debian.org。
Backports 是从 Debian 测试版(大部分)和 Debian 不稳定版(仅在几个事例中,例如安全更新)重新编译的软件包,那么它们在如 Debian Edu 的稳定 Debian 发布版上将不以新的库文件运行(各个是可以的)。我们建议选出适合自己需要的个别 backports,而不要使用在这里可用的所有 backports。
使用 backports 是简单的:
echo "deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ buster-backports main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list apt-get update
其后可以容易地安装那一个 backported 软件包,下面的命令将安装 backported 版本的 tuxtype:
apt-get install -t buster-backports tuxtype
就像其他软件包一样自动更新 backports (如果可用)。像常规的软件库,backports 有三个部分:main,contrib 和 non-free。
If you want to upgrade from one version to another (for example from Buster 10.1+edu0 to 10.3+edu1) but you do not have Internet connectivity, only physical media, follow these steps:
插入 CD / DVD / 蓝光光盘 / USB 闪存驱动器,将其挂载并使用 apt-cdrom 命令:
mount /media/cdrom apt-cdrom add -m
引用 apt-cdrom(8)手册页:
apt-cdrom is used to add a new CD-ROM to APTs list of available sources. apt-cdrom takes care of determining the structure of the disc as well as correcting for several possible mis-burns and verifying the index files.
必须用 apt-cdrom 将光盘添加到 APT 系统,而不能以手工完成。并且一套多光盘中的每一片必须分别插入并检查以指出可能存在的刻录错误。
然后运行这两个命令来升级系统:
apt-get update apt-get upgrade
killer
is a perl script that gets rid of
background jobs. Background jobs are defined as processes that belong to
users who are not currently logged into the machine. It's run by cron job
once an hour.
要安装它,以 root 身份运行以下命令:
apt-get install killer
unattended-upgrades
是会自动安装安全(和其他)升级的 Debian
软件包。这个软件包是默认安装并预配置来安装安全升级。在
/var/log/unattended-upgrades/
里提供其日志;而且,那里一贯是 /var/log/dpkg.log
和
/var/log/apt/
。
能够通过自动在晚间关闭客户机器而在早晨恢复来节约能量和金钱。这个软件包从下午 16:00 每小时的整点会试图关闭机器,但不会关闭似乎有用户的。在早晨 7:00 左右会尝试告诉 BIOS 打开机器,而主服务器会尝试从 06:30 由发送局域网数据包来打开机器。这些时间可以在单独机器的时间计划中被改变。
当在设置这个时应当记住的一些因素:
当有人在使用客户端的时候其不应被关闭。这由检查输出来自谁
来确保,而作为特殊的情况,对同
LTSP 瘦客户端工作的 LDM ssh 连接命令进行检查。
为了避免使保险丝熔断,最好确保所有的客户机不要同时启动。
There are two different methods available to wake up clients. One uses a
BIOS feature and requires a working and correct hardware clock, as well as a
motherboard and BIOS version supported by
nvram-wakeup
; the other requires clients to
have support for wake-on-lan, and the server to know about all the clients
that need to be woken up.
On clients that should turn off at night, touch
/etc/shutdown-at-night/shutdown-at-night
,
or add the hostname (that is, the output from 'uname
-n
' on the client) to the netgroup
"shutdown-at-night-hosts". Adding hosts to the netgroup in LDAP can be done
using the GOsa²
web tool. The clients might
need to have wake-on-lan configured in the BIOS. It is also important that
the switches and routers used between the wake-on-lan server and the clients
will pass the WOL packets to the clients even if the clients are turned
off. Some switches fail to pass on packets to clients that are missing in
the ARP table on the switch, and this blocks the WOL packets.
启用服务器上的 wake-on-lan,添加客户端到
/etc/shutdown-at-night/clients
,每一行一个,第一个是
IP 地址,随后是 MAC 地址(网卡地址),分隔以空格;或者创建一个即时生成客户端列表的脚本
/etc/shutdown-at-night/clients-generator
。
这个 /etc/shutdown-at-night/clients-generator
是与 sitesummary 一同使用的示例:
#!/bin/sh PATH=/usr/sbin:$PATH export PATH sitesummary-nodes -w
如果用 netgroup 来激活客户端 shutdown-at-night 的另一种选择是这一脚本使用来自
ng-utils
软件包的 netgroup 工具:
#!/bin/sh PATH=/usr/sbin:$PATH export PATH netgroup -h shutdown-at-night-hosts
要从互联网上访问防火墙背后的机器,考虑安装 autossh
软件包。它可以用来建立一个
SSH 隧道到一台你可以访问到的互联网上的机器。从该机器,可以通过 SSH 隧道访问防火墙背后的服务器。
在默认安装中,所有服务是在主服务器 tjener 上运行。为简化移动某服务到另一机器,可以用到 minimal 安装配置。以这一配置安装会让一台机器是 Debian Edu 网络的一部分,但(还)未运行任何服务。
设置一台专用于某些服务的机器所需要的步骤:
使用 debian-edu-expert 引导选项安装 minimal 配置
安装用于服务的软件包
配置服务
禁用主服务器上的服务
在主服务器上更新 DNS(通过 LDAP/GOsa²)
FIXME: The HowTos from http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/HowTo/ are either user- or developer-specific. Let's move the user-specific HowTos over here (and delete them over there)! (But first ask the authors (see the history of those pages to find them) if they are fine with moving the howto and putting it under the GPL.)
In this chapter advanced administration tasks are described.
In this example we want to create users in year groups, with common home directories for each group (home0/2014, home0/2015, etc). We want to create the users by csv import.
(作为在主服务器上的 root 用户
Make the necessary year group directories
mkdir /skole/tjener/home0/2014
(as superuser in Gosa)
Department
Main menu: goto 'Directory structure', click the 'Students' department. The 'Base' field should show '/Students'. From the drop box 'Actions' choose 'Create'/'Department'. Fill in values for Name (2014) and Description fields (students graduating in 2014), leave the Base field as is (should be '/Students'). Save it clicking 'Ok'. Now the new department (2014) should show up below /Students. Click it.
Group
Choose 'Groups' from the main menu; 'Actions'/Create/Group. Enter group name (leave 'Base' as is, should be /Students/2014) and click the check box left of 'Samba group'. 'Ok' to save it.
Template
Choose 'users' from the main menu. Change to 'Students' in the Base
field. An Entry NewStudent
should show up,
click it. This is the 'students' template, not a real user. As you'll have
to create such a template (to be able to use csv import for your structure)
based on this one, notice all entries showing up in the Generic, POSIX and
Samba tabs, maybe take screenshots to have information ready for the new
template.
Now change to /Students/2014 in the Base field; choose Create/Template and start to fill in your desired values, first the Generic tab (add your new 2014 group under Group Membership, too), then add POSIX and Samba account.
Import users
Choose your new template when doing csv import; testing it with a few users is recommended.
With this script the administrator can create a folder in each user's home directory and set access permissions and ownership.
In the example shown below with group=teachers and permissions=2770 a user can hand in an assignment by saving the file to the folder "assignments" where teachers are given write access to be able to make comments.
#!/bin/bash home_path="/skole/tjener/home0" shared_folder="assignments" permissions="2770" created_dir=0 for home in $(ls $home_path); do if [ ! -d "$home_path/$home/$shared_folder" ]; then mkdir $home_path/$home/$shared_folder chmod $permissions $home_path/$home/$shared_folder #set the right owner and group #"username" = "group name" = "folder name" user=$home group=teachers chown $user:$group $home_path/$home/$shared_folder ((created_dir+=1)) else echo -e "the folder $home_path/$home/$shared_folder already exists.\n" fi done echo "$created_dir folders have been created"
When users insert a USB drive or a DVD / CD-ROM into a (diskless) workstation, a popup window appears asking what to do with it, just like in any other normal installation.
When users insert a USB drive or a DVD / CD-ROM into a thin client there is only a notify-window showing up for a few seconds. The media is automatically mounted and it is possible to access it browsing to the /media/$user folder. This is quite difficult for many non experienced users.
It is possible to have the default KDE "Plasma" file manager Dolphin showing
up if KDE "Plasma" (or LDXE, if installed in parallel to KDE "Plasma") is in
use as desktop environment. To configure this, simply execute
/usr/share/debian-edu-config/ltspfs-mounter-kde
enable
on the terminal server. (When using GNOME, device
icons will be placed on the desktop allowing easy access).
In addition the following script could be used to create the symlink "media" for all users in their home folder for easy access to USB drives, CD-ROM / DVD or whatever media is connected to the thin client. This might come in handy if users want to edit files directly on their plugged in media.
#!/bin/bash home_path="/skole/tjener/home0" shared_folder="media" permissions="775" created_dir=0; for home in $(ls $home_path); do if [ ! -d "$home_path/$home/$shared_folder" ]; then ln -s /media/$home $home_path/$home/$shared_folder ((created_dir+=1)) else echo -e "the folder $home_path/$home/$shared_folder already exists.\n" fi done echo "$created_dir folders has been created"
Warning: When inserted into an LTSP server USB drives and other removable
media cause popup messages on remote LTSP clients.
If remote users acknowledge the popup or use pmount from the console, they can even mount the removable devices and access the files.
Take these steps to set up a dedicated storage server for user home directories and possibly other data.
Add a new system of type server
using GOsa²
as outlined in the Getting
started chapter of this manual.
This example uses 'nas-server.intern' as the server name. Once 'nas-server.intern' is configured, check if the NFS export points on the new storage server are exported to the relevant subnets or machines:
root@tjener:~# showmount -e nas-server Export list for nas-server: /storage 10.0.0.0/8 root@tjener:~#
Here everything on the backbone network is granted access to the /storage export. (This could be restricted to netgroup membership or single IP addresses to limit NFS access like it is done in the tjener:/etc/exports file.)
Add automount information about 'nas-server.intern' in LDAP to allow all clients to automatically mount the new export on request.
This can't be done using GOsa², because a module for automount is missing. Instead, use ldapvi and add the required LDAP objects using an editor.
ldapvi --ldap-conf -ZD '(cn=admin)' -b
ou=automount,dc=skole,dc=skolelinux,dc=no
When the editor shows up, add the following LDAP objects at the bottom of the document. (The "/&" part in the last LDAP object is a wild card matching everything 'nas-server.intern' exports, removing the need to list individual mount points in LDAP.)
add cn=nas-server,ou=auto.skole,ou=automount,dc=skole,dc=skolelinux,dc=no objectClass: automount cn: nas-server automountInformation: -fstype=autofs --timeout=60 ldap:ou=auto.nas-server,ou=automount,dc=skole,dc=skolelinux,dc=no add ou=auto.nas-server,ou=automount,dc=skole,dc=skolelinux,dc=no objectClass: top objectClass: automountMap ou: auto.nas-server add cn=/,ou=auto.nas-server,ou=automount,dc=skole,dc=skolelinux,dc=no objectClass: automount cn: / automountInformation: -fstype=nfs,tcp,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,rw,intr,hard,nodev,nosuid,noatime nas-server.intern:/&
Add the relevant entries in tjener.intern:/etc/fstab, because tjener.intern does not use automount to avoid mounting loops:
Create the mount point directories using
mkdir
, edit '/etc/fstab' as adequate and
run mount -a
to mount the new resources.
Enable access in case diskless workstations are used. This is a special case, because sshfs is used instead of NFS and automount:
Create the mount point directories in the LTSP diskless client's root
(default /opt/ltsp/i386/
) as well.
Add a line containing 'LOCAL_APPS_EXTRAMOUNTS=/storage' to
/opt/ltsp/i386/etc/lts.conf
(example).
Create a link in each user's home dir like 'ln -s /storage Storage' to help users find the resources.
Now users should be able to access the files on 'nas-server.intern' directly by just visiting the '/tjener/nas-server/storage/' directory using any application on any workstation, LTSP thin client or LTSP server, and visiting ~/Storage in case an LTSP diskless client is used.
There are several ways to restrict ssh login, some are listed here.
If no LTSP clients are used a simple solution is to create a new group (say
sshusers
) and to add a line to the
machine's /etc/ssh/sshd_config file. Only members of the
sshusers
group will then be allowed to ssh
into the machine from everywhere.
Managing this case with GOsa is quite simple:
Create a group sshusers
on the base level
(where already other system management related groups like
gosa-admins
show up).
Add users to the new group sshusers
.
Add AllowGroups sshusers
to
/etc/ssh/sshd_config.
Execute service ssh restart
.
The default LTSP client setup uses ssh connections to the LTSP server. So a different approach using PAM is needed.
Enable pam_access.so in the LTSP server's /etc/pam.d/sshd file.
Configure /etc/security/access.conf to allow connections for (sample) users alice, jane, bob and john from everywhere and for all other users only from the internal networks by adding these lines:
+ : alice jane bob john : ALL + : ALL : 10.0.0.0/8 192.168.0.0/24 192.168.1.0/24 - : ALL : ALL #
If only dedicated LTSP servers are used, the 10.0.0.0/8 network could be dropped to disable internal ssh login access. Note: someone connecting his box to the dedicated LTSP client network(s) will gain ssh access to the LTSP server(s) as well.
If LTSP clients were attached to the backbone network 10.0.0.0/8 (combi server or LTSP cluster setup) things would be even more complicated and maybe only a sophisticated DHCP setup (in LDAP) checking the vendor-class-identifier together with appropriate PAM configuration would allow to disable internal ssh login.
To install other desktop environments after installation, simply use apt:
apt update apt install education-desktop-gnome education-desktop-lxde education-desktop-xfce education-desktop-mate
Users will then be able to choose any of the five desktop environment via the login manager before logging in. Of course, you can also choose to give less choices. Keep in mind that there will be several programs for the same purpose (like file managers, editors, PDF viewers...) if more than one desktop environment is installed; this might confuse users.
The use of LXDE as default on LTSP clients can be forced; see networked clients for details.
If you don't want to do installations with the default desktop KDE Plasma, you can also install with one of the four alternative desktops, GNOME, LXDE, Xfce or MATE directly.
libdvdcss is needed for playing most commercial DVDs. For legal reasons it's
not included in Debian (Edu). If you are legally allowed to use it, you can
build your own local packages using the
libdvd-pkg
Debian package; make sure
contrib
is enabled in
/etc/apt/sources.list
.
apt update apt install libdvd-pkg
Answer the debconf questions, then run dpkg-reconfigure
libdvd-pkg
.
Default for new Debian Edu Buster installations: LTSP clients are using the
same architecture as the LTSP server, i.e. 64-bit-PC (aka amd64) or
32-bit-PC (aka i386).
Please keep in mind to use the correct architecture for all commands
referred to below.
One generic term for both thin clients and diskless workstations is LTSP client. LTSP is the Linux Terminal Server Project.
Thin client
A thin client setup enables an ordinary PC to function as an (X-)terminal, where all software runs on the LTSP server. This means that this machine boots via PXE without using a local client hard drive.
Diskless workstation
A diskless workstation runs all software locally. The client machines boot directly from the LTSP server without a local hard drive. Software is administered and maintained on the LTSP server (inside of the LTSP chroot), but it runs on the diskless workstation. Home directories and system settings are stored on the server too. Diskless workstations are an excellent way of reusing older (but powerful) hardware with the same low maintenance cost as with thin clients.
LTSP defines 320MB as the default minimum amount of RAM for diskless
workstations. If the amount of RAM is less, the machine will boot as thin
client. The related LTSP parameter is
FAT_RAM_THRESHOLD
with the default value
300. So if (for example) the clients should only boot as diskless
workstations if they have 1 GB RAM, add
FAT_RAM_THRESHOLD=1000
to lts.conf (or set
this in LDAP). Unlike workstations diskless workstations run without any
need to add them with GOsa², because LDM is used to login and connect to the
LTSP server.
LTSP client firmware
LTSP client boot will fail if the client's network interface requires a non-free firmware. A PXE installation can be used for troubleshooting problems with netbooting a machine; if the Debian Installer complains about a missing XXX.bin file then non-free firmware has to be added to the initrd used by LTSP clients.
In this case execute the following commands on an LTSP server.
# First get information about firmware packages apt-get update && apt-cache search ^firmware- # Decide which package has to be installed for the network interface(s). # Most probably this will be firmware-linux-nonfree. # Things have to take effect in the LTSP chroot for architecture amd64. ltsp-chroot -a amd64 apt-get update ltsp-chroot -d -a amd64 apt-get -y -q install <package name> # copy the new initrd to the server's tftpboot directory and update the NBD image. ltsp-update-kernels ltsp-update-image
As a shorter alternative -- installing all available firmware and updating the tftpboot directory -- you could execute:
/usr/share/debian-edu-config/tools/ltsp-addfirmware
Each LTSP server has two ethernet interfaces: one configured in the main 10.0.0.0/8 subnet (which is shared with the main server), and another forming a local 192.168.0.0/24 subnet (a separate subnet for each LTSP server).
On the main subnet the complete PXE menu is provided; the separate subnet for each LTSP server allows only diskless and thin LTSP client selection.
Using the default PXE menu on the main subnet 10.0.0.0/8, a machine could be started as diskless workstation or thin client. By default clients in the separate subnet 192.168.0.0/24 will run as diskless workstations if the amount of RAM is sufficient. If all clients in this LTSP client subnet should run as thin clients, the following has to be done.
(1)Open the file /opt/ltsp/amd64/etc/ltsp/update-kernels.conf with an editor and replace the line CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="init=/sbin/init-ltsp quiet" with CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="init=/sbin/init-ltsp LTSP_FATCLIENT=False quiet" (2)Execute 'ltsp-chroot -a amd64 /usr/share/ltsp/update-kernels' (3)Execute 'ltsp-update-kernels' (4)Execute 'ltsp-update-image'
The PXE configuration is generated using the script
debian-edu-pxeinstall
. It allows some
settings to be overridden by adding a file
/etc/debian-edu/pxeinstall.conf
with
replacement values.
The PXE installation option is by default available to anyone able to PXE
boot a machine. To password protect the PXE installation options, a file
/var/lib/tftpboot/menupassword.cfg
can be
created with content similar to this:
MENU PASSWD $4$NDk0OTUzNTQ1NTQ5$7d6KvAlVCJKRKcijtVSPfveuWPM$
The password hash should be replaced with an MD5 hash for the desired password.
The PXE installation will inherit the language, keyboard layout and mirror
settings from the settings used when installing the main-server, and the
other questions will be asked during installation (profile, popcon
participation, partitioning and root password). To avoid these questions,
the file
/etc/debian-edu/www/debian-edu-install.dat
can be modified to provide preselected answers to debconf values. Some
examples of available debconf values are already commented in
/etc/debian-edu/www/debian-edu-install.dat
.
Your changes will be lost as soon as
debian-edu-pxeinstall
is used to recreate
the PXE-installation environment. To append debconf values to
/etc/debian-edu/www/debian-edu-install.dat
during recreation with
debian-edu-pxeinstall
, add the file
/etc/debian-edu/www/debian-edu-install.dat.local
with your additional debconf values.
More information about modifying PXE installations can be found in the Installation chapter.
For adding a custom repository add something like this to
/etc/debian-edu/www/debian-edu-install.dat.local
:
#add the skole projects local repository d-i apt-setup/local1/repository string http://example.org/debian stable main contrib non-free d-i apt-setup/local1/comment string Example Software Repository d-i apt-setup/local1/source boolean true d-i apt-setup/local1/key string http://example.org/key.asc
and then run
/usr/sbin/debian-edu-pxeinstall
once.
The PXE menu allows network booting of LTSP clients, the installer and other
alternatives. The file
/var/lib/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default
is
used by default if no other file in that directory matches the client, and
out of the box it is set to link to
/var/lib/tftpboot/debian-edu/default-menu.cfg
.
If all clients should boot as diskless workstations instead of getting the full PXE menu, this can be implemented by changing the symlink:
ln -s /var/lib/tftpboot/debian-edu/default-diskless.cfg /var/lib/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default
If all clients should boot as thin clients instead, change the symlink like this:
ln -s /var/lib/tftpboot/debian-edu/default-thin.cfg /var/lib/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default

For performance and security considerations it might be desired to set up a separate main server which doesn't act as LTSP server.
To have ltspserver00 serve diskless workstations on the main (10.0.0.0/8) network, when the main server is not a combined server, follow these steps:
copy the ltsp
directory from
/var/lib/tftpboot
on ltspserver00 to the
same directory on the main server.
copy
/var/lib/tftpboot/debian-edu/default-diskless.cfg
to the same directory on the main server.
edit
/var/lib/tftpboot/debian-edu/default-diskless.cfg
to use the IP address of ltspserver00; the following example uses 10.0.2.10
for the IP address of ltspserver00 on the main network:
DEFAULT ltsp/amd64/vmlinuz initrd=ltsp/amd64/initrd.img nfsroot=10.0.2.10:/opt/ltsp/amd64 init=/sbin/init-ltsp boot=nfs ro quiet ipappend 2
set the symlink in
/var/lib/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg
on the main
server to point to
/var/lib/tftpboot/debian-edu/default-diskless.cfg
.
As an alternative, you could use ldapvi
,
search for 'next server tjener' and replace tjener with ltspserver00.
192.168.0.0/24 is the default LTSP client network if a machine is installed
using the LTSP profile. If lots of LTSP clients are used or if different
LTSP servers should serve both i386 and amd64 chroot environments the second
preconfigured network 192.168.1.0/24 could be used as well. Edit the file
/etc/network/interfaces
and adjust the eth1
settings accordingly. Use ldapvi
or any
other LDAP editor to inspect DNS and DHCP configuration.
In case LTSP server and chroot are 64-bit-PC, it is still possible to support older 32-bit systems. At least 20 GiB additional disk space on /opt would be required.
Run ltsp-build-client --arch amd64
to
create chroot and NBD image.
Use ldapvi -ZD '(cn=admin)'
to replace
amd64
with
i386
(dhcp statements in LDAP for one
dedicated network).
Run service isc-dhcp-server restart
.
Edit /etc/debian-edu/pxeinstall.conf (set ltsparch=i386).
Run debian-edu-pxeinstall
to regenerate the
PXE menu.
Run service nbd-service restart
to serve
the new NBD file.
The debian-edu-config package comes with a tool which helps in changing the
network from 10.0.0.0/8 to something else. Have a look at
/usr/share/debian-edu-config/tools/subnet-change
.
It is intended for use just after installation on the main server, to update
LDAP and other files that need to be edited to change the subnet.
Note that changing to one of the subnets already used elsewhere in Debian
Edu will not work. 192.168.0.0/24 and 192.168.1.0/24 are already set up as
LTSP client networks. Changing to these subnets will require manual editing
of configuration files to remove duplicate entries.
There is no easy way to change the DNS domain name. Changing it would require changes to both the LDAP structure and several files in the main server file system. There is also no easy way to change the host and DNS name of the main server (tjener.intern). To do so would also require changes to LDAP and files in the main-server and client file system. In both cases the Kerberos setup would have to be changed, too.
To configure specific LTSP clients with particular features, you can add
settings in LDAP or edit the file
/opt/ltsp/amd64/etc/lts.conf
. Please note
that ltsp-update-image
has to be run after
each change to lts.conf. The image update isn't needed if lts.conf is copied
to the /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/amd64/ directory.
We recommend to configure clients in LDAP (and not edit
lts.conf
directly, however, configuration
webforms for LTSP are currently not available in GOsa², you have to use a
plain LDAP browser/explorer or ldapvi
), as
this makes it possible to add and/or replace LTSP servers without loosing
(or having to redo) configuration.
The default values in LDAP are defined in the
cn=ltspConfigDefault,ou=ltsp,dc=skole,dc=skolelinux,dc=no
LDAP object using the ltspConfig
attribute. One can also add host specific entries in LDAP.
Run man lts.conf
to have a look at
available configuration options (see
/usr/share/doc/ltsp/LTSPManual.html
for
detailed information about LTSP).
The default values are defined under
[default]
; to configure one client, specify
it in terms of its MAC address or IP address like this:
[192.168.0.10]
.
Example: To make the thin client ltsp010 use 1280x1024 resolution, add something like this:
[192.168.0.10] X_MODE_0 = 1280x1024 X_HORZSYNC = "60-70" X_VERTREFRESH = "59-62"
somewhere below the default settings.
To force the use of a specific xserver on an LTSP client, set the
XSERVER
variable. For example:
[192.168.0.11] XSERVER = nvidia
If a thin client comes up with a black screen the use of a specific color depth might help. For example:
[192.168.0.12] X_COLOR_DEPTH=16
Depending on what changes you make, it may be necessary to restart the client.
To use IP addresses in lts.conf
you need to
add the client MAC address to your DHCP server. Otherwise you should use the
client MAC address directly in your
lts.conf
file.
Make sure that LXDE is installed on the LTSP server; then add these lines
below [default]
in "lts.conf":
LDM_SESSION=LXDE LDM_FORCE_SESSION=true
It is possible to set up the clients to connect to one of several LTSP
servers for load-balancing. This is done by providing
/opt/ltsp/amd64/usr/share/ltsp/get_hosts
as
a script printing one or more servers for LDM to connect to. In addition to
this, each LTSP chroot needs to include the SSH host key for each of the
servers.
First of all, you must choose one LTSP server to be the load-balancing server. All the clients will PXE-boot from this server and load the Skolelinux image. After the image is loaded, LDM chooses which server to connect to by using the "get_hosts" script. You will decide later how this is done.
The load-balancing server must be announced to the clients as the
"next-server" via DHCP. As DHCP configuration is in LDAP, modifications have
to be done there. Use ldapvi --ldap-conf -ZD
'(cn=admin)'
to edit the appropriate entry in LDAP. (Enter
the main server's root password at the prompt; if VISUAL isn't set, the
default editor will be nano.) Search for a line reading
dhcpStatements: next-server tjener
Next-server should be the IP address or hostname of the server you chose to
be the load-balancing server. If you use hostname you must have a working
DNS. Remember to restart the DHCP service.
Now you have to move your clients from the 192.168.0.0 network to the 10.0.0.0 network; attach them to the backbone network instead of the network attached to the LTSP server's second network card. This is because when you use load-balancing, the clients need direct access to the server chosen by LDM. If you leave your clients on the 192.168.0.0 network, all of the clients' traffic will go through that server before it reaches the chosen LDM server.
Now you have to make a "get_hosts" script which generates a list of server names for LDM to connect to. The parameter LDM_SERVER overrides this script. In consequence, this parameter must not be defined if the get_hosts is going to be used. The get_hosts script writes on the standard output each server IP address or host name, in random order.
Edit "/opt/ltsp/amd64/etc/lts.conf" and add something like this:
MY_SERVER_LIST = "xxxx xxxx xxxx"
Replace xxxx with either the IP addresses or hostnames of the servers as a
space-separated list. Then, put the following script in
/opt/ltsp/amd64/usr/lib/ltsp/get_hosts
on
the server you chose to be the load-balancing server.
#!/bin/bash # Randomise the server list contained in MY_SERVER_LIST parameter TMP_LIST="" SHUFFLED_LIST="" for i in $MY_SERVER_LIST; do rank=$RANDOM let "rank %= 100" TMP_LIST="$TMP_LIST\n${rank}_$i" done TMP_LIST=$(echo -e $TMP_LIST | sort) for i in $TMP_LIST; do SHUFFLED_LIST="$SHUFFLED_LIST $(echo $i | cut -d_ -f2)" done echo $SHUFFLED_LIST
Now that you've made the "get_hosts" script, it's time to make the SSH host
key for the LTSP chroots. This can be done by making a file containing the
content of
/opt/ltsp/amd64/etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts
from all the LTSP servers that will be load-balanced. Save this file as
/etc/ltsp/ssh_known_hosts.extra
on all
load-balanced servers. The last step is very important because
ltsp-update-sshkeys runs every time a server is booted, and
/etc/ltsp/ssh_known_hosts.extra
is included
if it exists.
If you save your new host file as
/opt/ltsp/amd64/etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts
, it
will be erased when you reboot the server.
There are some obvious weaknesses with this setup. All clients get their image from the same server, which causes high loads on the server if many clients are booted at the same time. Also, the clients require that server to be always available; without it they cannot boot or get an LDM server. Therefore this setup is very dependent on one server, which isn't very good.
Your clients should now be load-balanced!
LTSP thin clients use networked audio to pass audio from the server to the clients.
LTSP diskless workstations handle audio locally.
Attach the printer to the LTSP client machine (both USB and parallel port are supported).
Configure this machine to run a printer in lts.conf (default location:
/opt/ltsp/amd64/etc/lts.conf
), see the LTSP
manual
/usr/share/doc/ltsp/LTSPManual.html#printer
for details.
Configure the printer using the web interface
https://www:631
on the main server; choose
network printer type AppSocket/HP JetDirect
(for all printers regardless of brand or model) and set
socket://<LTSP client ip>:9100
as
connection URI.
It is useful to upgrade the LTSP environment with new packages fairly often, to make sure security fixes and improvements are made available. To upgrade, run these commands as user root on each LTSP server:
ltsp-chroot -a amd64 # this does "chroot /opt/ltsp/amd64" and more, ie it also prevents daemons from being started apt update apt upgrade apt full-upgrade exit ltsp-update-image
To install additional software for an LTSP client you must perform the installation inside the chroot of the LTSP server.
ltsp-chroot -a amd64 ## optionally, edit the sources.list: #editor /etc/apt/sources.list apt update apt install $new_package exit ltsp-update-image
Skolelinux has added several security features on the client network
preventing unauthorised superuser access, password sniffing, and other
tricks which may be used on a local network. One such security measure is
secure login using SSH, which is the default with LDM. This can slow down
some client machines which are more than about fifteen years old, with as
little as a 160 MHz processor and 32 MB RAM. Although it's not recommended,
you can add a line to
/opt/ltsp/amd64/etc/lts.conf
containing:
LDM_DIRECTX=True
Warning: The above protects initial
login, but all activities after that use unencrypted networked X. Passwords
(except the initial one) will travel in cleartext over the network, as well
as anything else.
Note: Since such fifteen-year-old thin clients may also have trouble running newer versions of LibreOffice and Firefox due to pixmap caching issues, you may consider running thin clients with at least 128 MB RAM, or upgrade the hardware, which will also give you the benefit of being able to use them as diskless workstations.
For Windows clients the Windows domain "SKOLELINUX" is available to be joined. A special service called Samba, installed on the main server, enables Windows clients to store profiles and user data, and also authenticates the users during the login.
Joining a domain with a Windows client requires the steps described in the
Debian Edu Buster Samba Howto.
Windows will sync the profiles of domain users on every Windows login and logout. Depending on how much data is stored in the profile, this could take some time. To minimise the time needed, deactivate things like local cache in browsers (you can use the Squid proxy cache installed on the main server instead) and save files into the H: volume rather than under "My Documents".
Choosing the LTSP server profile or the combined server profile also installs xrdp, a package which uses the Remote Desktop Protocol to present a graphical login to a remote client. Microsoft Windows users can connect to the LTSP server running xrdp without installing additional software - they simply start a Remote Desktop Connection on their Windows machine and connect.
Additionally, xrdp can connect to a VNC server or another RDP server.
Some municipalities provide a remote desktop solution so that students and teachers can access Skolelinux from their home computer running Windows, Mac or Linux.
Xrdp comes without sound support; to compile the required modules this script could be used.
#!/bin/bash # Script to compile / recompile xrdp PulseAudio modules. # The caller needs to be root or a member of the sudo group. # Also, /etc/apt/sources.list must contain a valid deb-src line. set -e if [[ $UID -ne 0 ]] ; then if ! groups | egrep -q sudo ; then echo "ERROR: You need to be root or a sudo group member." exit 1 fi fi if ! egrep -q ^deb-src /etc/apt/sources.list ; then echo "ERROR: Make sure /etc/apt/sources.list contains a deb-src line." exit 1 fi TMP=$(mktemp -d) PULSE_UPSTREAM_VERSION="$(dpkg-query -W -f='${source:Upstream-Version}' pulseaudio)" XRDP_UPSTREAM_VERSION="$(dpkg-query -W -f='${source:Upstream-Version}' xrdp)" sudo apt -q update # Get sources and build dependencies: sudo apt -q install dpkg-dev cd $TMP apt -q source pulseaudio xrdp sudo apt -q build-dep pulseaudio xrdp # For pulseaudio 'configure' is all what is needed: cd pulseaudio-$PULSE_UPSTREAM_VERSION/ ./configure # Adjust pulseaudio modules Makefile (needs absolute path) # and build the pulseaudio modules. cd $TMP/xrdp-$XRDP_UPSTREAM_VERSION/sesman/chansrv/pulse/ sed -i 's/^PULSE/#PULSE/' Makefile sed -i "/#PULSE_DIR/a \ PULSE_DIR = $TMP/pulseaudio-$PULSE_UPSTREAM_VERSION" Makefile make # Copy modules to Pulseaudio modules directory, adjust rights. sudo cp *.so /usr/lib/pulse-$PULSE_UPSTREAM_VERSION/modules/ sudo chmod 644 /usr/lib/pulse-$PULSE_UPSTREAM_VERSION/modules/module-xrdp* # Restart xrdp, now with sound enabled. sudo service xrdp restart

https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Required_Settings_for_Samba_NT4_Domains
Samba has been fully prepared for use as an NT4-style domain controller. After a machine has joined the domain, this machine can be fully managed with GOsa².
This documentation presumes that you have installed the Debian Edu main server and also a Debian Edu workstation. We presume that you have already created some users that can login and use the Debian Edu workstation. We also presume that you have a Windows workstation at hand, so you can test access to the Debian Edu main server from a Windows machine.
After installation of the Debian Edu main server the Samba host \\TJENER should be visible in your Windows Network Neighbourhood. Debian Edu's Windows domain is SKOLELINUX. Use a Windows machine (or a Linux system with smbclient) to browse your Windows/Samba network environment.
START -> Run command
enter \\TJENER and press return
-> a Windows Explorer window should open and show the netlogon share on \\TJENER, and maybe printers you already have configured for printing under Unix/Linux (CUPS queues).
Student and teacher user accounts that have been configured via GOsa² should be able to authenticate against \\TJENER\HOMES or \\TJENER\<username> and access their home directories even with Windows machines not joined to the Windows SKOLELINUX domain.
START -> Run command
enter \\TJENER\HOMES or \\TJENER\<username> and press return
enter your login credentials (username, password) in the authentication dialog window that appears
-> a Windows Explorer window should open and show files and folders in your Debian Edu home directory.
By default only the [homes] and the [netlogon] shares are exported; further
share examples for students and teachers can be found in
/etc/samba/smb-debian-edu.conf
on your
Debian Edu main server.
To use Samba on TJENER as a domain controller, your network's Windows workstations have to join the SKOLELINUX domain provided by the Debian Edu main server.
The first thing you have to do is to enable the SKOLELINUX\Administrator account. This account is not intended for day-to-day usage; its current main purpose is to add Windows machines to the SKOLELINUX domain. To enable this account log on to TJENER as the first user (created during main server installation) and run this command:
$ sudo smbpasswd -e Administrator
The password of SKOLELINUX\Administrator has been preconfigured during the main server's installation. Please use the system's root account when authenticating as SKOLELINUX\Administrator.
Once you are done with your administrative work make sure to disable the SKOLELINUX\Administrator account again:
$ sudo smbpasswd -d Administrator
Make sure your Windows machine has the name that you want to use in the SKOLELINUX domain. If not, rename it first (and then reboot). The NetBIOS host name of the Windows machine will later on be used in GOsa² and cannot be changed there (without breaking the domain membership for this machine).
Debian Edu ships some logon scripts that pre-configure the Windows user profile on first logon. When logging on to a Windows workstation that has joined the SKOLELINUX domain for the first time the following tasks are run:
copy the user's Firefox profile to a separate location and register that with Mozilla Firefox on Windows
set up Web-Proxy and start page in Firefox
set up Web-Proxy and start page in IE
add a MyHome icon to the Desktop that points to drive H: and opens Windows Explorer on double-click
Other tasks are run on every logon. For further information on this, please
refer to the /etc/samba/netlogon
folder on
your Debian Edu main server.
All Debian packages mentioned in this section can be installed by running
apt install <package>
(as root).
stable/education-development is a meta package depending on a lot of programming tools. Please note that almost 2 GiB of disk space is needed if this package is installed. For more details (maybe to install only a few packages), see the Debian Edu Development packages page.
Warning: make sure you know the status of
the laws about monitoring and restricting computer users' activities in your
jurisdiction.
Some schools use control tools like Epoptes to supervise their students. See also: Epoptes Homepage.
To get full Epoptes support, these steps are required.
# Run on a combi server (and on each additional ltsp server): apt update apt install epoptes ltsp-chroot -m --arch amd64 apt update ltsp-chroot -m --arch amd64 apt install epoptes-client ltsp-chroot -m --arch amd64 apt install ssvnc ltsp-chroot -m --arch amd64 sed -i 's/test -f/#test -f/' /etc/init.d/epoptes-client ltsp-chroot -m --arch amd64 sed -i 's/grep -qs/#grep -qs/' /etc/init.d/epoptes-client # If diskspace matters, use 'ltsp-update-image -n' instead. ltsp-update-image
Some schools use Squidguard or Dansguardian to restrict Internet access.
Every user should change her or his password by using GOsa². To do so, just
use a browser and go to https://www/gosa/
.
Using GOsa² to change the password ensures that passwords for Kerberos (krbPrincipalKey), LDAP (userPassword) and Samba (sambaNTPassword and sambaLMPassword) are the same.
Changing passwords using PAM is working also at the GDM login prompt, but this will only update the Kerberos password, and not the Samba and GOsa² (LDAP) password. So after you changed your password at the login prompt, you really should also change it using GOsa².
All users can send and receive mails within the internal network;
certificates are provided to allow TLS secured connections. To allow mail
outside the internal network, the administrator needs to configure the
mailserver exim4
to suit the local
situation, starting with dpkg-reconfigure
exim4-config
.
Every user who wants to use Thunderbird needs to configure it as follows. For a user with username jdoe the internal email address is jdoe@postoffice.intern.
启动 Thunderbird
Click 'Skip this and use my existing email'
Enter your email address
Don't enter your password as Kerberos single sign on will be used
Click 'Continue'
For both IMAP and SMTP the settings should be 'STARTTLS' and 'Kerberos/GSSAPI'; adjust if not detected automatically
Click 'Done'
There are Debian Edu users all over the world. A very easy form of
contribution is to let us know you exist and use Debian Edu - this motivates
us very much and therefore is already a valuable contribution.
The Debian Edu projects provide a database of schools and users of the system to help the users find each other, and also to have an idea about where the users of the distribution are located. Please let us know about your installation, by registering in this database. To register your school, use this web form.
Currently there are local teams in Norway, Germany, the region of Extremadura in Spain, Taiwan and France. "Isolated" contributors and users exist in Greece, the Netherlands, Japan and elsewhere.
The support chapter has explanations and links to localised resources, as contribute and support are two sides of the same coin.
Internationally we are organised into various teams working on different subjects.
Most of the time, the developer mailing list is our main medium for communication, though we have monthly IRC meetings on #debian-edu on irc.debian.org and even, less frequently, real gatherings, where we meet each other in person. New contributors should read our http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/ArchivePolicy.
A good way to learn what is happening in the development of Debian Edu is to subscribe to the commit mailinglist.

This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU General Public License for more details.
You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA.
Version 2, June 1991
Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc. 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301, USA. Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below, refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program" means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Program (independent of having been made by running the Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with the Program.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Program.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you received the program in object code or executable form with such an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable.
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source code from the same place counts as distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works based on it.
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to this License.
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system, which is implemented by public license practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License.
8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the Program under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
NO WARRANTY
11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

对于来自 Debian Stretch 的新版 debian-installer,更多细节参阅它的安装手册。
The "Thin-Client-Server" profile has been renamed to "LTSP-Server" profile.
New artwork based on the "soft Waves" theme, the default artwork for Debian 9 Stretch.
Everything which was new in Debian 9 Stretch, eg:
Linux kernel 4.9
Desktop environments KDE Plasma Workspace 5.8, GNOME 3.22, Xfce 4.12, LXDE 0.99.2, MATE 1.16
KDE Plasma Workspace is installed by default; to choose one of the others see this manual.
Firefox 45.9 ESR and Chromium 59
Iceweasel has been re-renamed to Firefox!
Icedove has been re-renamed to Thunderbird and is now installed by default.
LibreOffice 5.2.6
Educational toolbox GCompris 15.10
Music creator Rosegarden 16.06
GOsa 2.7.4
LTSP 5.5.9
Debian Stretch includes more than 50000 packages available for installation.
More information about Debian 9 Stretch is provided in the release notes and the installation manual.
Translation updates for the templates used in the installer. These templates are now available in 29 languages.
The Debian Edu Stretch Manual is fully translated to German, French, Italian, Danish, Dutch, Norwegian Bokmål and Japanese. The Japanese translation was newly added for Stretch.
Partly translated versions exist for Spanish, Polish and Simplified Chinese.
Icinga replaces Nagios as monitoring tool.
kde-spectacle replaces ksnapshot as screenshot tool.
The free flash player gnash is back again.
Plymouth is installed and activated by default, except for the 'Main Server' and 'Minimal' profiles; pressing ESC allows to view boot and shutdown messages.
Upon upgrade from Jessie the LDAP data base has to be adjusted. The sudoHost value 'tjener' has to be replaced with 'tjener.intern' using GOsa² or an LDAP editor.
The 32-bit PC support (known as the Debian architecture i386) now no longer covers a plain i586 processor. The new baseline is the i686, although some i586 processors (e.g. the "AMD Geode") will remain supported.
Debian 9 enables unattended upgrades (for security updates) by default for new installations. This might cause a delay of about 15 minutes if a system with a low uptime value is powered off.
LTSP now uses NBD instead of NFS for the root filesystem. After each single
change to an LTSP chroot, the related NBD image must be regenerated
(ltsp-update-image
) for the changes to take
effect.
Concurrent logins of the same user on LTSP server and LTSP thin client are no longer allowed.

New version of debian-installer from Debian Jessie, see installation manual for more details.
Everything which is new in Debian 8 Jessie, eg:
Linux kernel 3.16.x
Desktop environments KDE Plasma Workspace 4.11.13, GNOME 3.14, Xfce 4.10, LXDE 0.5.6
new optional desktop environment: MATE 1.8
KDE Plasma Workspace is installed by default; to choose one of the others see this manual.
the browsers Iceweasel 31 ESR and Chromium 41
LibreOffice 4.3.3
Educational toolbox GCompris 14.12
Music creator Rosegarden 14.02
GOsa 2.7.4
LTSP 5.5.4
new boot framework: systemd. More information is available in the Debian systemd wiki page and in thesystemd manual.
Debian Jessie includes about 42000 packages available for installation.
More information about Debian 8 Jessie is provided in the release notes and the installation manual.
Translation updates for the templates used in the installer. These templates are now available in 29 languages.
Two manual translations have been completed: Dutch and Norwegian Bokmål.
The Debian Edu Jessie Manual is fully translated to German, French, Italian, Danish, Dutch and Norwegian Bokmål. A partly translated version exists for Spanish.
squid: Shutdown and reboot of the main server takes
longer than before due to a new default setting
shutdown_lifetime 30 seconds
. As an example
the delay could be set to 10 seconds by appending the line
shutdown_lifetime 10 seconds
to
/etc/squid3/squid.conf
.
ssh: The root user is no longer allowed to login via
SSH with password. The old default PermitRootLogin
yes
has been replaced with PermitRootLogin
without-password
, so ssh-keys will still work.
slbackup-php: To be able to use the slbackup-php site
(which uses root logins via ssh), PermitRootLogin
yes
has to be set temporarily in
/etc/ssh/sshd_config
.
sugar: As the Sugar desktop was removed from Debian Jessie, it is also not available in Debian Edu jessie.
Updated artwork and new Debian Edu / Skolelinux logo, visible during installation, in the login screen and as desktop wallpaper.
New version of debian-installer from Debian Wheezy, see installation manual for more details.
The DVD image was dropped, instead we added a USB flash drive / Blu-ray disc image, which behaves like the DVD image, but is too big to fit on a DVD.
Everything which is new in Debian Wheezy 7.1, eg:
Linux kernel 3.2.x
Desktop environments KDE "Plasma" 4.8.4, GNOME 3.4, Xfce 4.8.6, and LXDE 0.5.5 (KDE "Plasma" is installed by default; to choose GNOME, Xfce or LXDE: see manual.)
Web browser Iceweasel 17 ESR
LibreOffice 3.5.4
LTSP 5.4.2
GOsa 2.7.4
CUPS print system 1.5.3
Educational toolbox GCompris 12.01

Translation updates for the templates used in the installer. These templates are now available in 29 languages.
The Debian Edu Wheezy Manual is fully translated to German, French, Italian and Danish. Partly translated versions exist for Norwegian Bokmål and Spanish.
Slight changes to some objects and acls to have more types to choose from when adding systems in GOsa. Now systems can be of type server, workstation, printer, terminal or netdevice.
New Xfce desktop task.
LTSP diskless workstations run without any configuration.
On the dedicated client network of LTSP servers (default 192.168.0.0/24), machines run by default as diskless workstations if they are powerful enough.
GOsa gui: Now some options that seemed to be available, but are non functional, are greyed out (or are not clickable). Some tabs are completely hidden to the end user, others even to the GOsa admin.
Using KDE "Plasma" on standalone and roaming workstations, at least Konqueror, Chromium and Step sometimes fail to work out-of-the box when the machines are used outside the backbone network, proxy use is required to use the other network but no wpad.dat information is found. Workaround: Use Iceweasel or configure the proxy manually.
