Hello,

I've successfully installed the LTSP software and I currently have one Redhat 8.0 
based server and one X-Terminal.

The X-Terminal is a Pentium 200, with no hard disk (just floppy & CDROM) and a 3c905b 
NIC. It also has an AWE64 soundcard.

What I'd like to be able to do is have each machine be able to use their 
floppy/cdrom/audio/(possibly Zip/Jazz) devices, yet remain (hard)diskless. Is this 
possible? I've read in the ltsp contrib section about using ftp and automount to do 
this, but it seems more like an ugly hack for my purposes.

For example, I'd like to be able to have a user insert an audio cd and have it play on 
their workstation only. 

I am also curious about the local X-Terminal. For example, how can I get access to 
it's root filesystem after a user has logged in? (I'd like to see a /proc filesystem 
for example). 

I've noticed that the X-Terminal always has a hostname of "wks001" or something like 
that, where is pulling this hostname from?

Thanks,

James T. Richardson, Jr.
