Hello Folks,

I was thinking about this scenario. It would be great to implement a TORQUE 
Cluster with nodes booting through LTSP in the Fat Client configuration.

It appears to be simple:

1. Set up Torque-Server in the server.
2. Emerge LTSP-Server.
3. Configure DHCP Server.
4. Create a simple NAT with iptables rules.
5. Build the Node Images with all necessary stuff: Torque Client, Compilers, 
Libraries and Scientific Software.
6. ???
7. Profit

The question is: someone should have wondered about this, but someone 
implemented this? This works? This appears to work?

A first problem at this pre-implementation point is the LTSP reliance in X.org 
Server. Which is bloatware in a cluster node...

Thanks in advance,
