|But what happens to the swap mounted on the server ?

  It would still be exported and allocated to the workstation.  There's no
need to unmount it, it's not a problem to the server.  If the client side of a
NFS connection fails, nothing bad happens to the server.  The swap file on the
server would be allocated to the workstation just the same.

|And with local appl isn't the home mounted for rw that should be unmounted befor

|

  If you're running local applications, it's a good idea to logout before
switching off the workstation.  But, again, a client side NFS failure is of no
consequence to the server.

|Why dose the halt/init 6 has no efect on the workstation. Couldn't it behave as

  This could be added in the future, but LTSP is ok even without this, this is
not necessary on thin clients.

|Since there are few things running at the workstation, this would be wery fast

|and local appl.
|

  You should first close your applications and logout first, then you can
switch off your workstation.  You don't need to be any concerned about what's
running on the thin client at that point.
