Paul,

The ltsp server will pick up all the settings from the NT server just
like the Win 9.X machines do.

The only detail you need to take care of is making sure that you plug
eth1 in to the NT network.

If you ever decide to run services to the NT network such as providing
access to the web server or samba, you will want to assign the K12LTS a
static address. If you get to this point it is not a big deal to set up
a reservation on NT. If person in charge of the NT box does not have
this knowledge and would like to do this for you email me and I will
forward you a step by step.

BTW how many terminals are you deploying?

John
