On this address http://expert.mandriva.com/question/33040 is mentioned that
Mandriva has
drakgw that help the setting of Internet Sharing.
I ran this command and the internet sharing with windowsxp problem was solved
but the dhcpd.conf for LTSP was
replaced with a generic one. The result was that LTSP 4.2 did not work any
more. thin clients could
not connect to the server anymore.
I had a copy of the LTSP dhcpd.conf and whe i restored it, Thin clients could
connect as well as
the windowsxp laptop.
So always do a copy of your ltspd.conf first.
Thanks for the help.
