Thanks for the quick replies Gavin (as always) and Lee.<br><br>I did remember to use the the correct dhcpd.conf, but that wasn't the problem evidently. A district network guy came out today and confirmed that they had pushed through some network upgrades over the weekend that were probably responsible for the failures; but last night I torrented the release candidate of Lucid at home, installed it with the default ltsp option, added local apps here at school today and tested it just now and the problem is gone!<br>
<br>I wasn't planning on upgrading to Lucid until after school was out, but this is as good a reason as any I suspect.<br><br>I read about fat client improvements on Stephane's blog a while back so I'm going to try that out next.<br>

</div>Which dhcpd.conf did you adjust?<br>
<br>
Remember there is one in /etc/dhcp[3] and another in /etc/ltsp<br>
