NAME

       nbdrootd -- Serve out LTSP images created with ltsp-update-image(8)

SYNOPSIS

       nbdrootd

DESCRIPTION

       nbdrootd  will  serve out LTSP images created with ltsp-update-image(8)
       which are filesystem images, and compressed  with  mksquashfs(8).   The
       nbdrootd(8)  program is a simple shell script wrapper for nbd-server(1)
       program, and it is usually run from an inetd(8) instance.

EXAMPLE

       Add the following line to /etc/inetd.conf(5):

       2000    stream  tcp    nowait  nobody /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/nbdrootd
       /opt/ltsp/images/i386.img

       Note  that  the  ltsp-update-image(8)  program  will  do  this  for you
       automatically.

SEE ALSO

       ltsp-update-image(1),    nbd-server(1),    inetd(8),     inetd.conf(5),
       nbd-client(8).
