==Client configuration for Mepis Client==
==Client configuration==
{{Level|advanced}}
SME Server's has been and remains focused on serving windows clients, however Linux clients also work well with SME Server.
These instructions are current for Mepis 7.0 and SME Server 7.3
Client configuration was originally based on http://tech.canterburyschool.org/tech/UbuntuWorkstations.
===Domain Login===
===Domain Login===
A Domain login lets users login without admin setting up each user first.

/etc/init.d/winbind restart
If you misconfigure a file and lock yourself out of the workstation <br>
hit spacebar at the grub prompt <br>
change to root=(leave as is) single <br>
login as root and check your config files
====Connect to domain====
on SME 7.3 and above
On the client [''Workgroup'' is your SME Server Workgroup]
and admin may be any user in the 'domain-admin' group
net rpc join -D '''WorkGroup''' -U admin
Log out, and now you should have all your SME Users in your login 'user list'
====Mounting Shares====
pam_mount works well if you use domain logins, other methods are too much trouble.
mount your server home directory and ibays
nano -w /etc/security/pam_mount.conf
volume * smbfs servername & /home/&/Desktop/& uid=&,gid=10000,dmask=0700 - -
volume * smbfs servername ibay1 /home/&/Desktop/ibay1 uid=&,gid=10000,dmask=0700 - -
to check your client values > K menu > Setting Configuration > Internet and Networking > Samba <br>
===Printing===
Printing to your SME Server depends on your printers being supported by cups
'''cupsd'''
When you install mepis, when asked you should elect to run cupsd
check and if necessary change with
ls -la /etc/rc5.d/???cupsys
cd /etc/rc5.d
mv K??cupsys S20cupsys
'''Configure printer'''
===Printing===
K menu > Settings > Peripherals > Printers
Administrator Mode
Add Printer > SMB Printer > Normal Account, and enter your SME username and password
Enter your workgroup, servername, and printer name as setup in the /server-manager workgroup and printer panels
Select your Printer from the cups database, check settings and print a test page
Enter the rest of wizard details to suit.
You can monitor your cups printers at YourClientIP:631
===Ident===
If using Ident Authentication for browsing
apt-get install ident2
===PPTP Connection===
When you install mepis, when asked you should elect to run ppp
To Connect to a remote SME Server
apt-get install pptp-linux kvpnc
K menu > Internet > Connection > VPN Client
===Applications===
*Install VMware, http://www.mepis.org/docs/en/index.php/VMWare#MEPIS_7.0
*Install a subversion client, synaptic -> kdesvn
