Jason, does this apply to the server only or to the clients as well, i.e. do I have to 
build my own
kernel for the clients?

If I have to build a client kernel, is there a doc somewhere that lists what is 
required in the
kernel for an LTSP client?

I've never patched a kernel before. Right now I have a 2.4.3 kernel from the Mandrake 
8.0 distro.
There is a 2.4.7 compiled kernel available from Mandrake web site.

Thanks,
Gerry
