This is not necessarily a problem. Most people here prefer a setup which puts all LTSP workstations on a network on their own, like this: [LTSP Network, 192.168.1.x] ---switch--- eth0[LTSP Server]eth1 ---- switch ----- [Other computers, internet gateway, 192.168.0.x] This means your server has to have two network cards (which it seems to have). You will then configure the eth1 as 192.168.0.2 (example), with a netmask of 255.255.255.0, and eth0 as 192.168.1.1 (example) with same netmask. This means you will assign 192.168.1.x addresses to the LTSP terminals by the dhcp server which is running on the LTSP server. Make sure it only hands out addresses for the 192.168.1.x network. Most services on the LTSP server should be restricted to that network too for security reasons (though it seems you have such a small network that you don't need to much security).
