Hello,

I have installed K12Linux on Centos 6.2 per K12Linux Server Install Guide.
Using EL6-based i686 chroot.

Have not been able to print to a client attached printer with cups.
I can print to a direct jet printer attached to the switch on the 1st nic card (
non client network-168.192.1.  )
Thin clients are on the second nic (172.31.100. )

Cups notes unable to locate printer by either
  ip address    (172.31.100.50)     ie.  socket://172.31.100.50
  or by lts.conf setup of alias  [ws50]

Currently the server has 5 located lts.conf files,

/opt/ltsp/i386/etc/lts.conf
/var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/lts.conf
/var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/ppc/lts.conf
/var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/ppc64/lts.conf
/var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/x86_64/lts.conf

Which one is used by client boot process?
