Actually, I haven't even gotten this far yet. I'm still stuck because we
use Windows 2000 as our DHCP server. Apparently, Win 2000 doesn't have the
ability to exclude specific machines from receiving a DHCP address by their
MAC address. Since I can't do this, and our company won't let me switch all
DHCP services over to a Linux server - it pretty much makes it impossible
for me to proceed with using the LTSP project in our environment.
(I've already received the suggestion of placing the LTSP systems on their
own independent network or LAN segment. This isn't realistic for our
environment. We have a structured cabling system with 10/100 ethernet
already, and we need the ability to swap a standard Win 2000 PC or a LTSP
thin-client booting to Citrix at will, using the same wall ports.)
Right now, I'm working on an alternate plan. I installed a freeware version
of DOS (www.freedos.org) on our old PCs, and set up the DOS Citrix client on
them. After I get a particular configuration of PC working in this manner,
I use Norton Ghost to make a disk image of it. Then I can clone it to all
the other PCs of the same type. This isn't perfect, because it still relies
on each PC having a working hard drive. Still, this may be the most
efficient way I can convert these old PCs into pseudo thin-clients.

Tom Wyrick,
I also am trying to configure LTSP to automatically launch the Citrix
Client. What changes did you make to rc.local to launch the Citrix Client.
Note: I am using TFTP and NFS on Windows 4.0 as mentioned in Paul
Whittaker's Contrib page. Also I have LOCAL_WM = Y and LOCALAPPS = N
