[K12OSN] SCREEN_02 = rdesktop <url> -- should it work?

[Jim McQuillan]

Rob,

By default, the thin client doesn't know about a dns nameserver.
You need to give it one in the lts.conf file, like this:

    DNS_SERVER = <ip_addr_of_nameserver>


I know it really should use the nameserver handed out by dhcpd, but
currently, it doesn't.
