===Network configuration===
The School Server, XS, as received is designed and configured for 2 Ethernet adapters,
* eth0 - connected to the wide area network (WAN) or the campus Internet connection,
* eth1 - connected to an access point (AP) which the XOs connect to.
For robustness in unreliable power supply environments, there are scripts that reconfigure features on a frequent basis. This design has frustrated anyone wanting to deviate from the default configuration.
We will have to understand the design, carefully document our adjustments for our environment, and make preparations to restore one or more configurations once we upgrade to a new version of the server that may likely restore some of the default configurations.


===Collaboration Server===
* This bug report, http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/9242, covers the missing collaborator icons in the Neighborhood view (after first connection and before reboot or reconnection to the access point)
* /etc/idmgr.conf edited line BIND_DOMAIN=172.18.0.1 to BIND_DOMAIN=129.21.47.159 in order to try to enable the registration service. Ran service idmgr restart.
*: But, on trying to register my XO, it stalls for a minute or two and then reports that it failed to connect to the schoolserver (it was connected to the ejabberd service).  --[[User:FGrose|FGrose]] 00:35, 17 October 2009 (UTC)
