Topic: CAT Demoserver Mrz 28 20:09:36 <binar> what's happend about this since the last meeting? Mrz 28 20:10:56 <jever> ok, there is a demo server now available Mrz 28 20:10:59 <binar> k4x = Kurt Gramlich (via audio relay by me) Mrz 28 20:11:19 <rft> demoserver is working Mrz 28 20:11:35 <C14r> Nice :) Mrz 28 20:11:43 <binar> indeed :-) Mrz 28 20:11:59 <rft> and I can write the catwalk Mrz 28 20:12:01 <jever> the demoserver is on build 872 Mrz 28 20:12:58 <binar> is it automatically updated? Mrz 28 20:13:11 <jever> it's a real maschine and is running debian-edu etch on last upgrade Mrz 28 20:13:22 <C14r> interesting question! Mrz 28 20:13:27 <jever> it is maintained manual Mrz 28 20:13:33 <jever> by me Mrz 28 20:13:52 <jever> it also runs lwat Mrz 28 20:13:58 * C14r thinks the answer is "yes" Mrz 28 20:14:24 <jever> because it comes with debian-edu automaticaly Mrz 28 20:15:07 <jever> but it is unused by me Mrz 28 20:15:20 <C14r> by mee too! ;-) Mrz 28 20:15:46 <jever> but it gives a hint that they can coexist Mrz 28 20:16:31 <C14r> So should we make this demo server public? Mrz 28 20:18:01 <jever> I think not, because it is not an automatic system an it is @home and there is only an upload by dsl of 256kB Mrz 28 20:19:31 <C14r> aha, what can we do make it public? (1) the automatic system thing ...? Mrz 28 20:19:39 <binar> sorry, my network connection was broken Mrz 28 20:19:41 <jever> I think it should be only for documentation team Mrz 28 20:20:38 <C14r> yes I under stand that this specific system is for documention team. Mrz 28 20:20:57 <C14r> But would it be not a good idea to have a public demo server? Mrz 28 20:21:14 <jever> if someone makes a demoserver available in internet and it is an automatic system, then it can be published, I think Mrz 28 20:21:52 <C14r> Could the Testcenter in GT help us? Mrz 28 20:22:07 <C14r> oskar64: how about you? Mrz 28 20:22:46 <binar> k4x says, that in principle he could offer a machine Mrz 28 20:23:01 <C14r> ok, nice!

Mrz 28 21:31:22 <oskar64> uhh, I cannot remember.. Mrz 28 21:31:26 <oskar64> lol Mrz 28 21:31:28 <C14r> hehe Mrz 28 21:31:46 <C14r> Answer: the 1st skel is kopied first, the 2nd skel afterwards! :) Mrz 28 21:31:55 <oskar64> oh yes Mrz 28 21:31:57 <C14r> rft I give you an example Mrz 28 21:32:07 <rft> please Mrz 28 21:32:27 <C14r> If you have an inportand file, lets say "README.new_student" Mrz 28 21:32:52 <C14r> And you wnat to be sure that every new studen will have this file when he joins the school Mrz 28 21:33:26 <C14r> then you copy this file in the direcory "students" and every new created student will become a copy. Mrz 28 21:33:38 <rft> ok Mrz 28 21:33:46 <C14r> you can do that also whith teachers, but then you must use the directory "teachers" Mrz 28 21:34:03 <C14r> This happend anyway! Mrz 28 21:34:31 <C14r> if you choose a object from the drop down list, that this is a second copy folder. Mrz 28 21:34:49 <C14r> Example: Mrz 28 21:34:49 <rft> when I creat a new student, I can give him different one of a lot different templates Mrz 28 21:35:03 <C14r> no not a different, a second Mrz 28 21:35:22 <rft> s the teacher has only one Mrz 28 21:35:37 <rft> he can't get a second Mrz 28 21:35:38 <C14r> a student will have the role student and the template dir students Mrz 28 21:35:46 <C14r> rft yes a teacher has only one Mrz 28 21:36:05 <C14r> so why a second? Mrz 28 21:36:26 <rft> when I creat a teacher I have no choice Mrz 28 21:36:31 <C14r> if you have a department for students lets say biology and chemistry Mrz 28 21:36:44 <C14r> you can create that skel with skeladmin Mrz 28 21:37:06 <jever> mmmh, that's a little bit confusing and is not thought to end, I think, it should be more cleared by a schema Mrz 28 21:37:17 <rft> and I will find this skel on the drop down list? Mrz 28 21:37:26 <C14r> and then you have the choise to copy also README.chemistry for a new student of chemestry, of course he will also get README.new_student, becuse his role is student Mrz 28 21:37:45 <C14r> rftm yes youwill found that, if not: http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/CipUX/ToDo Mrz 28 21:38:13 <rft> so, this skels are only preconfigured ones Mrz 28 21:38:20 <C14r> yes Mrz 28 21:38:33 <C14r> because basically every role has its skel Mrz 28 21:38:39 <rft> and normally we will find there our specific points Mrz 28 21:38:46 <C14r> and if you do not want to copy you use noskel Mrz 28 21:38:57 <C14r> rft: yes Mrz 28 21:39:08 <C14r> oskar64: jever binar: next time you can explain that? Mrz 28 21:39:09 <rft> ok...
