So, I've used Ubuntu for years and am good at finding solutions, but I'm completely stumped and the help I can find presumes that I know where these files are.....
I set up 2 clients as thin clients and managed to get everything working, but the response time was too slow while trying to use the thin clients, and without multimedia like youtube, it is useless for my purpose. So, I decided to give a fat client a try. Having done a ton of stuff, I wiped and reinstalled Ubuntu 16.04LTS and started a fat client install process.
So, I've followed these steps ( https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/FatClients ) to set up a fat client so I can have 2 clients connect to a server in my home.
The "Localization" part lost me, but it looks like stuff I don't care about as the people using the clients just want to surf the web and check email.
I was able to create the debconf.seeds file with no problems.
I don't use Oneiric, so I didn't care about the next part.
I built the client (yeah, that took a long time) and all seemed ok. I hook everything up to test it and I get error PXE-e53 No Boot Filename received.
Now, as a thin client, this could connect and load, but now as a fat client I get this error. I did some searching and found references to lts.conf and dhcpd.conf files and I cannot find them anywhere. Could those files be why I get this error?
If so, what should be in these files and where should I create them? The help I find online presumes that I know what I'm doing with this stuff and, while I'm quick on the uptake, networking is NOT my strongsuit.
