Created a vm with bridged adapter and network boot no harddisk 

client no march.

rebooted ltsp server machine 

retrying client 


ltsp partial was running on host machine.
apt-get remove ltsp 
and 
apt-get remove ipxe 
done on host machine.

removed dns-masq from host machine. TFTP finally not on port 69 

added second network card on ltsp vm server. Set fixed IP 192.168.67.1

then executed 

root@mx:~# ltsp dnsmasq --proxy-dhcp=0
Installed /usr/share/ltsp/server/dnsmasq/ltsp-dnsmasq.conf in /etc/dnsmasq.d/ltsp-dnsmasq.conf
Restarted dnsmasq
root@mx:~# 

running 
ltsp image /
and ltsp ipxe to see if it sets the server ( update running config ) 

ltsp image / ( this command takes a long time and might not be required ) 

next time just use ltsp ipxe

set both ltsp server and ltsp client VMs to connect to internal network for networking. 

So the ltsp client shall see the ltsp server instead of the WLAN0 card and shall avoid the WIFI DHCP.

ufw disable 

this seems to have worked. ufw disable is not in the documentation. Needed for MX linux

now testing with wlan0 

server set to 192.168.67.1 via wlan0 bridge.
