 Here are the steps that I worked out from before. They still look good and
should work just fine for you:

 1. Install Edubuntu workstation option

2. On first boot do this:

            1. Create an 'administrator' user during install.

2. CTRL+ALT+F1, login as admin

sudo su -          (<--- to become root)

mv /home/administrator /admininistrator

usermod -d /administrator admininistrator

3. CTRL+ALT+F2, login as admininistrator to make sure things are working ok

3.  Logout and hit F7 to login to graphical

4. Change repositories in Synaptic Package Manager (add Universe and
Multi-universe)

5. Put on all updates.

6. Reboot workstation

7. Download smbldap at
http://majen.net/smbldap<http://majen.net/smbldap%20like%20version%202.1>
    version 2.1 or so

8. Open the archive and extract it.

9. Open a terminal window and cd to smbldap-installer

10. sudo ./smbldap ubuntuclient

11. sudo gedit /etc/udev/permissions.rules

            Find the sound device section

            Add MODE=”0666”, in front of GROUP=”audio”

12. Open Synaptic Package Manager and search for portmap and autofs

add and apply both

13. Configure the automounter to mount the home directories as needed.

 1. Edit /etc/auto.master add:

 2. /home /etc/auto.homes --timeout=60

 3. Edit /etc/auto.homes

 4. * 192.168.0.168:/home/&

14. Restart the computer and logon as a LDAP client!



You will also need to set up the printer in the lab and change backgrounds.
If you have trouble with that, let me know, but I think you remember that
part.


Also, I figured out my wireless issues. D-Link uses channel bonding to get
their 108Mbps. So if you turn that off and drop to a standard 54Mbps, all is
well on both.
