Ask for help from an expert if you fell uncomfortable with it. With ltsp you really have two separate file systems to update. One for the regular file system and one for the file system clients. Actually you could have several file systems to update if you are supporting more than one kind of thin client hardware. By now you should be handy enough with the command line that I do not have to put a picture of every result.

If you already have many virtual hosts setup, this can be a challenge. some people suggest a simple move (mv) to change the filenames, but then the links in sites-enabled will not be correct. You will need to remove the old links and establish new ones. A simple batch file can be created to accomplish the job. In the sites-available directory $ sudo mv www.yoursite.com www.yoursite.com.conf. In the sites-enabled directory $ sudo unlink www.yoursite.com $ sudo ls -s ../sites-available/www.yoursite.conf. Then you may need to rerun a2ensite on each site. Also could be a change in the default virtual host directory: Default Virtual Host If your Apache configuration file is replaced during the upgrade, the location of your default virtual host will change from /var/www to /var/www/html. You may have to disable the default virtual host again, if you ...
