Configuration

Shares

• Shares are configured via GPO and can be modified by:
  • using the linuxmuster-webui client configuration -> Drives menu
  • using gpedit on a Windows client
  • modifying the file /var/lib/samba/sysvol/linuxmuster.lan/Policies/{someUUID}/User/Preferences/Drives/Drives.xml on the linuxmuster server. (Replace someUUID with the UUID of the policy)
• If you want to customize how drive letters are formatted, you can use the letterTemplate parameter in the shares-section of the config file (/etc/linuxmuster-linuxclient7/config.yml):

  shares:
    letterTemplate: " ({letter}:)"

  • The letter template is directly appended to the share label
  • "_({letter})" results in projects_(P)
  • "_{letter}" results in projects_P
  • "" (empty string) results in projects

Printers

• Printers MUST have the same name in cups and devices.csv!
• To use a printer, either the computer or user must be member of the printers group
  • Printer group membership can be controlled in the linuxmuster-webu group membership menu

Proxy server

To configure a proxy server, add this to your logon.sh script:

PROXY_DOMAIN=linuxmuster.lan
PROXY_HOST=http://firewall.$PROXY_DOMAIN
PROXY_PORT=3128

# set proxy via env (for Firefox)
lmn-export no_proxy=127.0.0.0/8,10.0.0.0/8,192.168.0.0/16,172.16.0.0/12,localhost,.local,.$PROXY_DOMAIN
lmn-export http_proxy=$PROXY_HOST:$PROXY_PORT
lmn-export ftp_proxy=$PROXY_HOST:$PROXY_PORT
lmn-export https_proxy=$PROXY_HOST:$PROXY_PORT

# set proxy gconf (for Chrome)
gsettings set org.gnome.system.proxy ignore-hosts "['127.0.0.0/8','10.0.0.0/8','192.168.0.0/16','127.0.0/12','localhost','.local','.$PROXY_DOMAIN']"
gsettings set org.gnome.system.proxy mode "manual"
gsettings set org.gnome.system.proxy.http port "$PROXY_PORT"
gsettings set org.gnome.system.proxy.http host "$PROXY_HOST"
gsettings set org.gnome.system.proxy.https port "$PROXY_PORT"
gsettings set org.gnome.system.proxy.https host "$PROXY_HOST"
gsettings set org.gnome.system.proxy.ftp port "$PROXY_PORT"
gsettings set org.gnome.system.proxy.ftp host "$PROXY_HOST"
