Nigel,
Thanks, that got me pointed in the right direction. Basically I was mounting a logical volume in the Tjener / directory and then trying to connect it to the workstation root. As I get more familiar with LTSP and how it handles setting up the file directories for workstations and thinclients I think I can find a way to do it.
All the best,
David
