Package: ltsp-server 
Version: 5.0.39 debian1 

I just installed the ltsp-server package (using aptitude) on a vmware virtual 
machine that is running 'lenny' distribution with kernel 2.6.22-3-686 

The VMware setup is running on 'etch' 

I subsequently executed the command 'ltsp-build-client' which concluded after a 
while with a "...successfully completed." 
A quick inspection of the command output to the console did not indicate any 
scary warnings or errors... 

I did insert the line--> '/opt/ltsp *(ro,no_root_squash,async)' into the file 
/etc/exports 

I configured the separate dhcp server (on a different machine) that I have as 
required... 

I also noticed that although tftpd-hpa and openbsd-inetd were packages 
installed as dependencies, the 'tftp' entry in inetd.conf was not inserted as 
part of the package install. consequently tftpd did not work when I tried to 
boot the ltsp client. After I inserted the following entry --> 

'tftp dgram udp wait root /usr/sbin/in.tftpd /usr/sbin/in.tftpd -s 
/var/lib/tftpboot -r blksize' 

into inetd.conf the ltsp client successfully received the kernel from the 
tftpboot directory and began the booting process through the initial stage 
until 'something went wrong' and I ended up staring at the following lines on 
the ltsp client monitor: 

-------------------------------------------------------

please let me know what other info you need. 

Thanks,
