I don't actually have Linux installed on my system at the moment, and am wavering between installing Debian 4.0 and Edubuntu, which has LTSP capabilities built in: Edubuntu installs all of the software with only a few questions relating to LTSP: Primary network interface: eth0 or eth1? Usually eth1 will be on the motherboard and eth0 in the expansion slots. What is the IP address? Use something in 192.168.0.x and you get good defaults with no editing required. Typically, choose 192.168.0.254 or 192.168.0.1, to leave lots of space for printers, clients and so on What is the netmask? Use 255.255.255.0 What is the gateway? Leave blank or use IP address of gateway to the WWW Name server address? I usually install my own name server, but a novice should use the one for WWW connections or leave this blank Nevertheless, judging from a Wiki entry, LTSP isn't that difficult to install on Debian, either, so I'm wondering if the ease of installing it on Edubuntu should be a decisive consideration in making the choice.
