How do I stop server mounted USB drives showing a dialogue on thin clients

  • 772

I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 64bit Desktop on my server with LTSP5.2 and 10 workstations.

Everytime I put a CD or USB disk into the server it shows up with an error on all the workstations saying 'Unable to Mount '

Is there a way to stop these messages from showing on thin clients?

    Try this

    Open gconf-editor from terminal.

    Then untick /apps/nautilus/preferences/media_automount_open key.

    This disables automatic opening of a folder for automounted media

    This seems to be a per user setting.

  3. Maybe you enabled the LTSP automount feature.

    Have a look at this information page on LTSP under the title "autofs"
