I managed to get swap working by logging to the terminal via SSH.
I added the following to /etc/inetd.conf on the server.
9210 stream tcp nowait nobody /usr/sbin/tcpd
/usr/sbin/nbdswapd
I ran the following commands on the terminal:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# free

I'm trying to get NBD_SWAP working on Ubutu 8.04.

Doesn't mention Hardy in the ltspswapd "download and install"
section. Its ltspswapd included in another package for Hardy or was
it renamed/replaced? I'm working on setting up the static binaries
which include ltspswapd and other binary. What worries me is all of
the other binaries are already installed as part of the LTSP packages
that were installed when I setup the system.
I have 20 Devon IT terminals that are hanging when they run out of
physical memory. My Diskless Workstation LTSP 150s are running great
without swap.
