That was one the first things I read about LTSP. But as is implicated in the end of the article, a good firewall will help. In contrast to what is said in the article, no /home directories are mounted over NFS though. If you don't use swap over NFS, all NFS exports are read-only. > Also, I think I've read some time ago, that LTSP > could not serve (via NFS) directories that were not > Ext2FS.

LTSP is a pretty high-level collection of services, you mention low-level stuff such as FS and NFS severs. You could use any NFS server you want to get the clients happy.
