Since the defaults have changed, I'm not sure it's a good idea to switch back. In particular, The chrootless(LTSP-PNP) method has been recommended by LTSP developers for many years doesn't really work with NFS in production environments, since you'd have to export "/" over NFS! I would, of course, be interested in bug fixes for NFS support, but I don't forsee making it the default again. live well, vagrant
