Antonis tried this and had problems but my setup works smoothly and easily if you want to try it mail me. (and now lots of installs by me and my customers) 1) Set up ubuntu server and thin client and make it run (I did and packaged /opt/ltsp as an rpm) 2) I use CentOS, but fedora and RHEL are just as suitable as SERVER 3) You can modify the ltsp scripts to use mktemp (or such) posted by Warren but I packaged a tempfile rpm. 4) install my nbd rpm (requires squashfs tftp) 5) Grab your dhcp setup from the ubuntu server At every point what you do is the SAME as you did for ubuntu - its an identical implimentation, and any help you may need here can be reffered to the ubuntu install. (but note I used xinetd on ubuntu and had to fiddle to get nbd setup in xinetd - in fact just like the rpm does :-) (OT VirtualBox makes a good place to do your test ubuntu server for me vmware won't keep time with/without guest tools loses without gains with) 6) set up the keys (ltsp_update_ssh) 7) build the image (ltsp_build_image) but you must specify -a i386 as RHderivitives don't have deb tools to find architecture. (sorry the ltsp-tools are probably named incorrectly, It's been ages since I ran them - the rpm does everything :-) Use the ubuntu server to do the chroot updates and propogate to your server eg ldm has changed of recent. My rpm of /opt/ltsp give the clients a fedora theme James ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
