LTSP and March's BLU meeting...



Greetings,

I'm feeling a bit refreshed after a little vacation time from work.  I also
managed a 2 day ski trip to Stratton Mt. which amounted to the best snow
conditions I've had yet in New England...

Anyway, I'd like to get an idea if there's any interest in the Boston
community on the Linux Terminal Server Project (LTSP).  I spent quite
a bit of time recently installing it at home, and now that it's working
I'm wondering if it's interesting enough for a BLU meeting topic in March.

LTSP itself is a network bootable (nfsroot) type of linux distribution
which seems to be ideal for diskless X-stations, but also has other uses.

The outline would be something like this:
	LTS Project Description, Current State, Future Goal
	Network Booting Theory (PXE,RPC,BOOTP,DHCP,BPBatch,PXELINUX)
	LTS Installation & Configuration
	Demonstration

That should be plenty to fill 2 hours of your time...

Comments?
