Useful Commands / Processes

Hide the cursor in orbiter

touch /etc/pluto/orbiter.disable.mouse

Re-initialize the Media Database

(From forum post http://forum.linuxmce.org/index.php?topic=6408.msg70571#msg70571)

  • Disable the UpdateMedia daemon
# /usr/pluto/bin/UpdateMediaDaemonControl.sh –disable
  • Login to mysql and remove the database
# mysql -uroot
# drop database pluto_media;
# quit
  • Re-initialize the media database
# cp /usr/pluto/database/media.sqlcvs .
# /usr/pluto/bin/sqlCVS -D pluto_media -r media import
  • Re-start the UpdateMedia daemon
# /usr/pluto/bin/UpdateMediaDaemonControl.sh –enable

Set Root password on MD

Get superuser privs and enter your password: 

$ sudo su -

chroot to the MDs environment (XX is the MD#), run passwd and enter your desired root password for this MD. 

# chroot /usr/pluto/diskless/XX/
# passwd

You can now ssh, or login, to the MD as root.
