Summary

Using available terminal servers at the space, rollout a system that provides Xorg based terminals, using a managed desktop.

Architecture

The dektop itself should run as a virtual machine on erratic. The clients should be able to connect to an xdmcp service running on the aformentioned virtual machine

Desktop

Currenty the desktop runs as a debian 12 vm on erratic, with the hostname ts.vm.nurd.space. The machine is configured to use LDAP logins and has the home directories mounted read-write. The server is currently configured with the following services:

  • LightDM for logins
  • Xfce4 for desktop
  • Chromium as the browser

Clients

The clients can be anything that is able to make an xdmcp connection. We currently have one PoC HP terminal running in zaal1 with archlinux. This terminal will connect to ts.vm.nurd.space during boot. We should standardize this on Debian.
