[K12OSN] No IP Address Once

["Terrell Prudé Jr."]

That shouldn't be the case, otherwise everything else, Windows/Mac OS
boxes included, would have the same problem.  Is it only the thin
clients that take minutes during heavy network load?

Also, are you running the "classic" two-NIC LTSP, or are you doing
single-NIC?  If you're running two-NIC, then load on the main LAN
shouldn't at all affect the thin clients getting addresses.
