Fix resolving on your LAN / within the served image, this has nothing to do with SANE (I've been doing ALTSP, trust me :) -- http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/NET3-4-HOWTO-5.html#ss5.5 might help. Start with "resolve" or "host" commands on the fat client and cite your /etc/resolv.conf when asking for help on e.g. #ltsp at irc.freenode.net. > But the server gets its IP address by DHCP, a feature I want to > preserve so that I don't have to get into the router > configuration when I set one of these up. If you don't run a farm of servers, you generally want their LAN IPs configured statically and not dynamically (and if there was a real reason to do DHCP for *servers* you would know better already); if your router leases 192.168.1.2+ and has some range like "2-200" for the last octet, you can put the server at .254 and be done with that. -- ---- WBR, Michael Shigorin / http://altlinux.org ------ http://opennet.ru / http://anna-news.info -- sane-devel mailing list: sane-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sane-devel Unsubscribe: Send mail with subject "unsubscribe your_password" to sane-devel-requ...@lists.alioth.debian.org
