Could be a few things. First, make sure you don't have a firewall up. How you disable it depends on your distribution.

Second, make sure you have the IP address of the workstations in /etc/exports. It should look something like this:

/opt/ltsp4/i386 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0(ro,no_root_squash,sync)

Third, make sure you are supplying the IP addres of the server in dhcpd.conf. I couldn't tell from your post if the actual message was <server> or if you were removing the IP for privacy. If the actual message says <server>, then you need a line like this in dhcpd.conf

option root-path "192.168.1.3:/opt/ltsp4/i386";

Substitute your IP adress fpor the 192.168.1.x ones in these examples.

I am a newbie (less than a year) on Linux (RH9) and
real new on ltsp (ver 3).
In setting up my first workstation, everything goes
well until it gets to this line,
"Mounting root filesystem: /opt/ltsp/i386 from:
<server>"
I checked old postings and looked in the directory. It
is populated with directories and two files, "mnt" and
"var" and the same directories with their contents and
those two files are in my /tmp area. I ran "exportfs
-ra" in that tmp directory and in the i386 directory
and checked exports in /etc and saw no difference. The
workstation still hangs.
I"ve gone through the documentation and can't find
anything that doesn't match. I'm now over my head.
Thanks for help,
