I guess you used the image that is automaticly made,
/cd-sarge/something.
If you have taken a look at my document, you might find the situation a
bit different. Yes, there was a bug that made it not work, but tha bug
is now found (not fixed) and should work really soon.

If you want a stable main-server, thats your choice for now. I still
would install a main-server as venus, but workstations and Thin-Client
servers would have been Sarge-based. If you have a combined server, it
depends upon the type of installation, if it's a School, if you need
windows-clients etc.
Read the my howto, Se if it's for you, if so, install the image I've
prepared, and then, if you find a bug, please list it, within the
document (it's in cvs), if it's a bug upstream, please report it, if
not, fix it, and if you find a workaround, document it.
