===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)
