That would not matter. I think I will give each client a static ip-address and a hostname via DHCP.

This sounds nice! But i can't find a DEFAULT_PRINTER option in lts.conf and don't know how to configure this for LDM.

No, I don't think, that I am able to modify python code;-) Thank you Kai Wüstermann -- edubuntu-users mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/edubuntu-users
