Hello, Here's what I discovered about my problem: My best guess is that ltsp failed to properly install (during the actual hard disk install process) because it couldn't get past my proxy server. Now, while in the live CD gui, I had configured my proxy info including authentication, but that information doesn't seem to have been passed to the actual installed system (I know that because I had to set it again once the install was done). Here's what I did to install ltsp on the HD (thanks to the guys a irc #edubuntu - if you don't have a proxy server, ignore the "export http..." line): First: use synaptic to install ltsp-server-standalone (NOT ltsp-server, but ltsp-server-standalone!) Then, from terminal: sudo -i export http_proxy=http://[yourproxyusername]:[proxypasswo...@[proxyipaddress]:[proxyport]/ ltsp-build-client Good luck
