Title: using ltsp on a shared NT Linux network Hi, On our network we have 2 NT DHCP servers and an ltsp instance running RH7. Can anyone tell me how I can get the client machine to obtain an IP address from the NT DHCP server when using NT and an IP address from the ltsp server when booting

Are you trying to use bootp and dhcp? I thought it is either one or the other. I have been wrong before. I see no need to use bootp. looks like tftp is not working though. Test it by transferring something on the linux box. Is the ws listed in /etc/hosts? Is this correct? yourdomain.com

Use VCIs (Vendor Class Identifiers). If your LTSP box is using Etherboot and your non-NT DHCP server is dhcpd v3 do something like the following: 1) Compile Etherboot with REQUIRE_VCI_ETHERBOOT so that it ignores the NT servers. 2) Something like this tells ISC dhcpd to ignore all except

Does LTSP have a way to alter the keyboard map. I have an application that uses all 12 function keys along with the ALT/SHIFT/CTRL variations. I hacked together a proof of concept by adding extra programs to the LTSP distro but was hoping that there is a better way to do what I need. --

You can use the Win 2000 DHCP server without problems. What you have to do is to make a reservation which ties a mac-number to a fixed ip-number. In W2K DHCP server, you make a reservation and then you configure this reservation with the nessesary information about boot-server and boot-file.
