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.
