hello. i've been looking into this issue some, and it's non-trivial to have an automatically set up network swap.
i will describe the process by which you can enable swap, however. i'll assume i386 and a default /opt/ltsp installation path, but adjust the instructions appropriately to your needs. chroot /opt/ltsp/i386 apt-get install nbd-client in /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/lts.conf: [Default] NBD_PORT=9210 SWAP_SERVER=ip.of.swap.server apt-get install nbd-server in /etc/nbd-server: NBD_PORT[0]=9210 NBD_FILE[0]=/opt/ltsp/swap/swapfile.%s NBD_SERVER_OPTS[0]="" invoke-rc.d nbd-server start now create the swap files: MEGS=100 your_ip_addresses="10.0.2.2 10.0.2.3 10.0.2.4" mkdir -p /opt/ltsp/swap/ for a in $your_ip_addresse ; do dd if=/dev/zero of=/opt/ltsp/swap/swapfile.$a bs=1024k count=$MEGS done you need to create a file for each possible ip address that will attempt to connect to the server. i'm not sure how well this works on sarge- i've been testing in sid, and it seems pretty functional. there is currently some work by ubuntu folks to create a more automatic setup, where the swapfiles are created and removed on demand, which we should hopefully be able to pull into debian: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FullyAutomaticSwapServer also, in the recent 0.93debian1 packages, we introduced a USE_LOCAL_SWAP feature, that will make use of swap partitions on the thin-client's local disk, if found. /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/lts.conf: USE_LOCAL_SWAP=Y i know it doesn't totally fix your problems, but work is in progress towards that end :) live well, vagrant -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
