[K12OSN] Second crack at a FC5-based build of K12LTSP

[Jim Christiansen]

Hi Eric,
OK, the tftp is up and the clients all work as k12ltsp4.x.  Sound on the 
clients works with out making any changes to conf files.

If I do recall correctly, there was a script (perl??) that rewrote the 
dhcpd.conf (ok, now dhcpd.k12ltsp.conf :-)   that looked at the ip the 
server was set to and altered it accordingly.  My systems have always been 
192.168.1.x and this time the k12ltsp-initialize didn't make these changes.  
I just had to do the changes to the dhcpd.k12ltsp.conf myself.

I did try the lts.conf switch LOCAL_STORAGE = Y but the usb access doesn't 
appear to work yet.  This is just to let you know.  April 4th is coming soon 
and with that perhaps the last shiney new changes for ltsp and a bigger wiki 
for the ltsp4.2.

Thanks for the help and all of your efforts,

Jim

I'm burning new discs right now. I'll test this shortly...

The new-and-improved DHCP config file is /etc/dhcpd.conf.k12ltsp

This is specified in /etc/sysconfig/dhcpd:

	DHCPDARGS=" -cf /etc/dhcpd.conf.k12ltsp"


The same magic is done with named.conf as well...

(Note-to-self: I'm inconsistent between the two, I should rename
/etc/dhcpd.conf.k12ltsp to /etc/dhcpd-k12ltsp.conf)
