Have just done my first K12LTSP installation. Before asking a
question, let me explain what I've done so far:

1. Installed K12LTSP version 6 accepting all defaults on a Netfinity
5600 with 2 NICs.

2. Connected a hub and an old PC to eth0 and network-booted the PC.
Got login, and all worked fine.

3. Connected my Windows Vista PC to the above mentioned HUB, and
opened a VNC (ultraVNC) session on 192.168.0.254:0. This also worked
fine.

4. Since my existing network (and most private networks using ADSL
internet connection) is using the 192.168 subnet, I wanted to change
the default subnet used by eth0 (LTSP). I changed all the files
mentioned in the ONE NIC portion of the Installation guide to use the
10.0 subnet, and connected the eth1 card to my existing 192.168 that
is connected to internet via router with a dhcp server. Again I was
able to network boot my old PC, and all worked fine. Internet now
works on the terminal. So far so good!!!!

Now my question (probably first in a series): I would like to connect
to the server via vnc using xinetd (so without starting the
vnc-server) from my Vista PC connected to the 192.168 subnet (so it
would need to connect to the K12LTSP server on eth1). I have tried
playing around with it some, but can't get it to work. Has anyone
tried something similar with success? Any feed-back would be
appreciated. Thanks in advance.
