John, Matt, Matthew,
I'd like to thank you very much for your ideas - I will wrap them up and
forward to my collegue Abubaker Baduwais who actualy initiated this
question, and advise him to use ltsp-discuss list directly.
I wish you a pleasant day and thank you again.
S pozdravem / Best Regards

I serve 3 subnets (physical networks) from a single dhcp/ltsp server this
does require a router that is able to forward dhcp requests to the network

hard
to come up with.

One of your network engineers should be able to help you with the above
problem.
