SYNOPSIS

debian-edu-ltsp-install [ OPTIONS ]

DESCRIPTION

Tool to configure a Debian Edu system with ’LTSP-Server’ profile’ for
both diskless workstations and also thin clients (using X2Go). The
configuration applies to a Debian Edu machine on the internal backbone
network with two NICs. This system needs to be registered using GOsa²
in case it isn’t the main server (i.e. a ’combined’ server).
This script applies to a system with two NICs on the internal backbone
network.

debian-edu-ltsp-install --arch i386 --thin_type bare

creates additional 32-bit thin client support.
debian-edu-ltsp-install --diskless_workstation yes
