Thanks for the reply vagrant. I followed your instructions, but I got
another error

/usr/share/ltsp/plugins/ltsp-build-client/Debian/095-exports: line 8:
syntax error near unexpected token `do'

line 8 is :         if x in /etc/exports.d/*.exports ; do

So, I changed "do" to "then", and then I got this :

root@rohitj-tablet:~# ~/my-ltsp-build-client --arch i386 --dist
squeeze --mirror http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/
NOTE: adding default dist and components to security mirror:
http://security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main
I: Retrieving Release
I: Retrieving Release.gpg
I: Checking Release signature
E: Release signed by unknown key (key id AED4B06F473041FA)
error: LTSP client installation ended abnormally


What should I do?

Rohit
