Hello there,

in order to turn my bunch of ltsp clients into a farm of computers running 
boinc (for distributed computing), i installed the package boinc in the 
clients chroot. By setting up NAT with netfilter the boinc client also can 
contact to the internet and get workunits form e.g. the 
www.worldcommunitygrid.org.

Now the problem is that the configration of the boinc client does not survive 
ltsp clients reboot. therefor i wan't the ltsp client to nfsmount some 
directory on startup. to do this i added the line

RCFILE_01=/etc/mountsnfs.sh

to /etc/lts.conf and did 

chmod ugo+x /etc/mountnfs.sh

to the file containing the lines

        /etc/init.d/portmap restart
        mount -t nfs 192.168.0.1:/var/lib/boin-client/TCs /var/lib/boinc-client

and did a ltsp-update-image. During reboot the client says

        mount.nfs: rpc.statd is not running but is required for remote locking.
        mount.nfs: Either use '-o nolock' to keep locks local, or start statd.
        mount.nfs: an incorrect mount option was specified

ok i understand what he says, but i am asking how i can achieve, that the 
script /etc/mountnfs.sh is executed later in the boot process, at a time when 
statd is running? by RCFILE_10 or so instead of RCFILE_01 in lts.conf?

or is there generally an easier way to give local_apps a persitent working 
directory on the server? <- thats what i try to do.

thank you
