The chroot contains just enough GNU/Linux to make the client a terminal of the server. If your server contains the user accounts and apps that you want, then ltsp-build-client is all you need to run. > Do I have to install all applications again in the chroot env? Only if you want to run them as local apps, but it's not necessary as all server apps will run from your client in a default setup. > Do I copy or link the existing /home dirs? No. Again, this is on the server, which is where it needs to be for LTSP. > Honestly I thought using the "ltsp-build-client" command would transfer > all this into the chroot of the clients. No. Did you run ltsp-build-client and try booting a client? Do this, log in as one of your users and see how it works. db ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
