As it says in the subject, I have a 6.0.1 server facing the internet and a Fedora Core based LTSP server connected to that.
What do I need to do to create a connection from the thin clients to the i-bays on the sme box? Do I need to create an account on the sme box to match the ltsp login? What about the ltsp client access issues?
I have the thin client stuff working well, just need to integrate with the sme stuff.
The searching I did was of no help.

Use the NFS,
1) rpm -Uvh e-smith-nfs-1.21-04sjn01.noarch.rpm nfs-utils-0.3.3-5.i386.rpm
2) populate /etc/exports and start NFS [root@sme]# /sbin/e-smith/signal-event nfs-update
3) Make it run on bootup
[adam- perhaps better to use ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/nfs /etc/rc7.d/S99nfs?]
[root@sme]# /sbin/e-smith/db configuration set nfs service
[root@sme]# /sbin/e-smith/db configuration setprop nfs status enabled

I understand the NIS stuff, but how do the clients validate with the sme server, as they are users on what is essentially another user on the sme box?

Don't worry about the NIS stuff. Look at the NFS. If you set up SME as a NFS server and the LTSP as the NFS Client, you will be able to map using the fstab file. The user on the LTSP would also need to be on the SME server as well.

looks straight forward. I'll give it a try.
Thanks.......
Now it I can get the "print to client attached printer" figured out, I'm done.
