Dear Sir,

- thank you for your answer(s)!
- I'll stick with ltsp-discuss as you say.
- I must admit I feel a little embaressed about all this, in the past
I've been able to get 20+ LTSP's (back from version 3 something) in the
air, facing all sorts of problems. Only this one...
- I was so disturbed last night that I thought today would be monday...I
now realize that I've got one whole day more before deadline :-)

The direct XDMCP connection now works(!) after this nights stand-still
and this mornings reboot. I use the XDMCP way simply because I've only
got one LCD 15" monitor that I would need to physically connect to the
server if I want to watch it directly.

========
SOLVED!!

It now boots and runs fine, even with sound and local devices!

The reason...when I installed and ran life/'kiwi-ltsp-setup -c', I
noticed that the dhcp server wasn't starting, it was not assigned an
interface to listen to. So I edited /etc/sysconfig/dhcpd and gave it the
ANY interface to listen to, it was eth0. I then re-started the dhcpd
server - I don't remember if I also ran 'kiwi-ltsp-setup -c', then it
prompted me and I logged in just fine!
Yesterday, I did the same thing - but I named the interface 'br0'.

When one runs the 'kiwi-ltsp-setup -c', the firewall automatically gets
setup and started, is the an easy way to avoid this?

Thank You Houston, we're breathing again :-)
