We tried it with the Vendor Id but we did not get the results that we were expecting, I am not sure if it is something we are doing wrong or else. The User class has more flexibility and that is why we wanted to use it.
> For one, I know they like to zero-pad their strings. This is interesting - I posted a question regarding this also - because Actually we are facing a problem associated with the ROOT PATH, it is supposed to be /opt/ltsp/i386. Because of the padding the ltsp server is being passed the /opt/ltsp/i386000. a temp solution was to rename the path accordingly. Hers is another question that is based on this: > just use a different DHCP server on a Linux machine and running on a different port number. Does a DHCP client care which port the DHCP server is listening on, I thought it does a broadcast. Does not this mean that whichever server picks the request first servers the ip from its pool? The reason I ask is that we are currently running a small private network (1 win2k DHCP SRVR, 1 TC i386, 1 LTSP SRVR i386) but are aim is to use a M/F as an LTSP server but since we need to add the ltsp parms to the clients we wanted to do it in the least harmful way to our PROD DHCP srvrs and least customization. thanks ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bhaskar S.
