AVAILABILITY

       Part of the ltsp package and the  latest  versions  are  available  in  source  form  from
       https://launchpad.net/products/ltsp.

FILES

       /etc/ltsp/<tool>.conf:  Upon execution the tool will read a configuration file to override
       built-in defaults.

       Values are NAME="VALUE" pairs, with  #  representing  commented  lines.  most  commandline
       options  have  an  equivalent.  an  example  Debian  based  system  with an alternate base
       location, architecture, and distribution:

        # set alternate default location for ltsp chroot (--base)
        BASE="/srv/ltsp"
        # build an amd64 chroot by default (--arch)
        ARCH="amd64"
        # build a Debian sid environment (--dist)
        DIST="sid"

       /etc/ltsp/ltsp-server.conf: Each LTSP server tool will read a generic configuration  file.
       This  file is typically used for setting BASE, TFTP_DIRS and TFTP_BOOT_DIR. These settings
       are overwritten by those set in specific tool configs.
