Scotty,
I believe he means without a Linux desktop - ie, localdev+RDP.
Luis, I have a package on the wiki's WorkInProgress page that makes this
work. It actually runs lbussd on the client side, so you would run
rdesktop with:
rdesktop -r disk:drives=/Drives <ip>
and map a share on the windows box to: \\tsclient\drives
If you have difficulty installing the package, pop into #ltsp on IRC,
and I can walk you thru it.
This is prolly not going to be the final solution. We are adjusting the
scheme for LTSP5 somewhat. But, this package will at least keep you
from being held up going to 4.2.
Cheers,
-Gadi
