Hi,
I've successfully setup freenx on the pxes thinclient.
I'd now like to get floppy, cdrom y usbflash working.
I have done this with pxes. PXES runs a samba server on the thinclient
and from within my nx serssion ontop of pxes I can access the floppy
via smb://thinclient/fd
The nx wizard has the option to activate floppy, cdrom access too.
How does this fit in with the underlying (pxes) samba server?
One of our reasons to use thinclients is to allow staff to move about
from one office space to another (nomachine right! :) . I can see the
difficulty of accessing local drives via ip for roaming users. Perhaps
use a script that checks the users ip with 'nxserver --list' when the
user logs on and then create some links on their desktop (or something
like that).
How is this problem approached from freeNX?
Chris
