Keld,

XFS can be a real pain.  I've had my share of problems
with XFS.  You need to make sure you set it up correctly
to handle the number of workstations you are going to
have.

Older versions of XFS defaulted to a max of 20.  I'm not
sure if there is a default limit on the newer versions of XFS.

Also, older versions would either handle TCP or Unix sockets 
but not both.  This causes a problem for running X on the
console of the server.  You'd have to modify the XF86Config
file for the server, and there's no way I want to get into
automating that with the LTSP install.

So for now, if you want to run AbiWord, you need to manually
setup XFS.

Jim.
