[K12OSN] USB and Floppy support not working

[Calvin Park]

/etc/hosts looks like it's supposed to,

192.168.3.x       wsXXX.ltsp      wsXXX

All entries appear to be there. Thanks for the help on this.

What is in your /etc/hosts file?  The hostname command should return 
something like ws001 or similar, which should be found in /etc/hosts.
