Great to hear it's working. I found out that Debian Lenny doesn't have this functionality, so I installed ltsp-server 5.1.28 from Debian Experimental which does have it. Unfortunately running "/usr/bin/ltsp-localapps myapplication" didn't seem to do anything.
Can anybody confirm local apps working in any version of Debian or Ubuntu? Those are the 2 distros I'd prefer to use, but I'll use Fedora if I can't find any other way. Is there a Debian-specific LTSP mailing list on which I should be asking this question? It seems to me that different distros implement LTSP 5 differently enough that a how-to from one doesn't necessarily apply to the other distros. -Rob ******************************************************** The information transmitted is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.
