As I have already pointed out this isn't necessary, once a hostname is set for each possible DHCP lease, as is the case if you set up /etc/hosts with ltspadmin, or with a script of your own, you needn't maintain anything. -- From Ben Green - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

The LTSP client got bootup, searching for DHCP, got IP, running TFTP, and got time out finding the TFTP server. Which tftp server? tftp-hpa is one you should be running. Has anyone got Dynamic DNS with LTSP? Any clue/url will be great. DynDNS is for upside IP / Name assignment. DHCP is for downside. (To speak in LTSP overview) I have servers which get name / ip assignment from DynDNS but dhcpd does not come in to picture here. And they server clients under LTSP. Hello Sudev, Sorry for confusing you with the term. What I mean by Dynamic DNS is that we can set DHCP server to update the DNS record dynamically. So, when I boot a client, it will get an IP address from DHCP server, and then DHCP server will contact the DNS server in our network to update the A and PTR record in DNS server for the just booted client. But why? Nobody except the server and the client need to know anything about the IP assigned to the client. So unless you are doing something out-of-ordinary this is interesting but of no value James - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Still grepping through log files to find problems? Stop.

Why would you maintain hostname table / DNS record with 100+ clients? Nobody needs to know, bother if you really did need this, you would be able to say bla for this reason.
