Re: : CentOS 7 & LTSP adventures, success.

Hello,

it could be this is related to Lightdm, the server has mate-desktop installed. I'm also seeing this EM:
Apr 14 12:04:36 localhost lightdm: pam_unix(lightdm-greeter:session): session closed for user lightdm

Hello Barry, Hello All,

so I'm also experimenting on Centos7.

I followed the procedure described by Barry below.

The thinclient boots fine, but users or root can't logon.
The EM I'm seeing is:
Apr 14 11:46:02 localhost sshd[5003]: Connection closed by 192.168.63.130 [preauth]

I tried the usual, ltsp-update-sshkeys, Selinux, ...

Can anyone help me with this?

Many thanks.

Johan
