Hi,

I am new to this list and am trying to setup an ltsp server on ubutnu feisty 
with one client and I am having problems. First of all, I have no experience 
with setting up servers, I am just a regular linux user; but I read through all 
the available ubuntu and edubuntu documentation regarding this subject. I 
already posted help messages on the various forums and lists but found no help 
so far. I hope some experienced user can help me out on this list. This is what 
I have done so far following the instructions on the ubuntu setup page. I 
installed the following software:

sudo apt-get install ltsp-server-standalone openssh-server

then built the client

sudo ltsp-build-client

Evrything went without a glitch.

After I replaced the Ip addresses in the dhcpd.conf file to match with the eth0 
card Ip address.

This is the ip address:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ifconfig

eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:D0:09:FA:61:0F

          inet addr:66.201.246.116  P-t-P:10.1.1.1  Mask:255.255.255.255

          RX bytes:8568884 (8.1 MiB)  TX bytes:2336095 (2.2 MiB)


and this is the modified  dhcpd.conf file:

authoritative;

subnet 169.254.5.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
  range 169.254.5.20 169.254.5.250;
  option domain-name "example.com";
  option domain-name-servers 169.254.5.1;
  option broadcast-address 169.254.5.255;
  option routers 169.254.5.1;
  option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
  if substring( option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 9 ) = "PXEClient" {
    filename "/ltsp/i386/pxelinux.0";
  }
  else{
    filename "/ltsp/i386/nbi.img";
  }
  option root-path "/opt/ltsp/i386";
}

Next, I downloaded the boot image iso for cd. 

Now, when I try to boot the thin client I get a message: “Searching for server 
(DHCP), No IP address.

Any idea what should I do now?

Thanks a lot.
