[K12OSN] k12LTSP and static IP

This is good....yes win2k machines would be mapped to the k12box via UNC 
path,shortcut on the desktop etc....to the executable that would k12linux 
gui, programs etc on the win2k machine.

I didn't want the win2k machines to pick up "new" ip addresses...unless it 
can be done without setting  the k12ltsp server to run dhcp.   Our school is 
already running a dhcp server, I've been told that I cannot put a dhcp 
server on the school network for the obvious reasons.
