Let's look at how the client gets the values from lts.conf now. 1. the /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/rc.local script uses a function 'get_cfg' to get each of the settings from the lts.conf file. 2. The 'get_cfg' function is in /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/ltsp_functions. It uses the program '/opt/ltsp/i386/bin/getltscfg' to parse and extract the values from lts.conf. I would think you could replace getltscfg with your own program/script which queries your mssql db for the values. ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _____________________________________________________________________ Ltsp-discuss mailing list.
