I too, would like to run LTSP on Dapper without the Edubuntu Desktop. I
like the quick install guide. I am confused about DHCP. My DSL
modem/router handles dhcp upstream on the network before getting to the
Dapper box. I have two ethernet ports, eth1 for upstream and eth0
available for LTSP on the Dapper box. Does LTSP handle dhcp only for
eth0? Does this cause no conflict with the router dhcp upstream
connected to eth1? I prefer not to mess with the router config since it
it provided by my ISP. I am a recent convert so here's hoping my
questions are clear. Thanks much for the learning experience.
