if you configure eth0 to have the static IP 192.168.0.1, the ubuntu
dhcpd will only register to that interface and leave the eth1 interface
alone, its intelligent enough to only serve on static interfaces with a
matching IP (indeed eth1 shouldnt should have a 192.168.0.xxx address as
well, that wouldnt work, so make sure your router doesnt provide IPs
from that range or change /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf *and* the IP of eth0 to
match another network address)
