Copy stripped versions of dhclient (from your distro, linked against
libc6), netdate and killall5 to the /opt/ltsp/i386/sbin directory.
Make a symlink in that directory named 'pidof' pointing to killall5.
Make another symlink there named 'dhclient-script' pointing to
../etc/dhclient-script.
Copy the attached rc.local file to /opt/ltsp/i386/etc, but check it
before really doing that.
Make a symlink in the etc directory named 'adjtime' pointing to
../tmp/adjtime.
Make these two symlinks in the dhcp-subdir of etc:
one named 'dhcpd-eth0.info' pointing to ../tmp/dhcpd-eth0.info
one named 'dhcpd-eth0.info.new' pointing to ../tmp/dhcpd-eth0.info.new

Before restarting dhclient, time is fetched from the server.

But having set 'default-lease-time -1' all this will (hopefully) not be
necessary. You can simply enjoy some more free space.

You can download all that stuff including symlinks as
www.westfalenkolleg-dortmund.de/ltsp/changes.tar.bz2  (98kB)

Hope it works

Wolfgang
