Evan and John,
It's not a bug, it's a feature.
The idea is that you run ltspinfo like this:
eval `ltspinfo -h ws001 -c ALL`
and it will set the values in your environment.
It prepends 'LTSP_' on the front of all of the variables, so that we
don't step on other variables that might already be in your environment.
As for variables missing from /tmp/info, only variables that the client
cares about are put in /tmp/info, and will be returned by ltspinfod.
RUNLEVEL is not a recognized variable. (it was in LTSP-3, but not in
LTSP-4 or LTSP-4.1).
Take a look in the rc.sysinit script in the ltsp etc directory. It has
calls such as: reg_info USE_NFS_SWAP
That's the command that puts the USE_NFS_SWAP variable in /tmp/info.
Just randomly adding new variables to lts.conf won't magically make them
appear in /tmp/info. You'd need to add some code in your rc script to
call reg_info to make them appear.
