Comment:
update LTSP client issues.

  
   * mirror redirector: http.debian.net -> httpredir.debian.org (postpone atm due to out-of-sync secondary mirrors)
   * new samba version: configuration changes
-  * LTSP generates squashfs image file automatically, this takes ages and needs a lot of disk space. A file like ../ltsp-build-client/Debian-custom/001-disable-squashfs-image containing one line: SQUASHFS_IMAGE="False" will prevent it.
   * pxe installation: fails due to kernel mismatch, but works after adapting d-e-pxeinstall to wget the daily d-i netboot images.
-  * LTSP: both thin and diskless clients fail to start (kernel panic), seems to be due to DebianBug:786925. (LTSP default is NBD in stretch, Debian Edu uses NFS.) Update: after generating the NBD image file (and using it), both LTSP client types work like expected. Generation takes a long time (3.6 GiB size for MATE DE, 3.9 GiB for default PLASMA DE).

   * sddm: by default, all users (icons) are shown (after fixing network and autofs); default theme breeze can't be configured to show a username field. 
   * isc-dhcp-server: fails to work, variable INTERFACES in /etc/default/isc-dhcp-server has been split into INTERFACESv4 and INTERFACESv6 (cf).
   * tftp-server: as atftpd isn't available in stretch atm, tftpd-hpa has been installed; disabling option --secure (/etc/default/tftpd-hpa) lets the daemon work (cf).
