Hi, I am thinking of settting up a thin client server setup. I would like to set it up to work with linux and windows. I was going to use Symbiont but it says it needs a different version of linux to install. Has anyone used it with Centos before? Would it be easier to just install LTSP and set it up. I would like to b have a small box that does the dhcp and then allows users to logon to

I'm having some fun with R on a Windows 2003 Server talking to a Wyse Winterm running Thinstation Linux. The Winterm boots Linux from the network and then runs rdesktop to a Dell 1750 server (dual 3G Xeon or somesuch). The first problem I noticed was that R (and the terminal) ground to a near halt during demo(graphics). Further investigation showed that it seemed to be due to having

Hi We like to build Diskless clusters. Where should we go to know how to build Diskless X server running in Centos6.2? Y.Nishimura

hi all got a windows 2008 server using samba as a primary domain controller. also got terminal services on the windows box for remote desktops, got some clients set up with thinstation to automatically connect to the terminal server with rdesktop. got a problem with logging on and off, its taking about 2 minutes to log in, "please wait for the user profile service", time increases if

Is anyone doing this or has anyone tried? The thin clients are running WindowsCE, a browser, and 300mhz. They are Wyse units. I wonder if anyone has any practical advise or can recommend the best phone or method to load a stable softphone on one of these boxes? Thanks, Steve Totaro

Not thinking about migrating back due to issues, it is more due to implementation needs and a little situation I have been wrestling with with for a bit now, and would love some feedback First a little history: We currently have 10 locations connected via a dedicated 1/2 T-1. Last year I migrated from a WINNT domain to a Samba/LDAP domain. It has been running great. Basically did this for

Hello, many of our platforms do not have a integrated floppy, some even don''t have a floppy controller. As pxelinux still has a problem with machines without a floppy in combination with some bios versions I need to chainload a different bootstrap loader which works on the floppyless platforms. But I also need to load a BartPE and the other BS loader does not support that. So I tried to

Hi! I'm preparing what should be a general "network boot" solution for the ones that needs to do network boot on PC without BIOS support / ROM chips. It supports both PXE (like pxelinux.0) and NBI images. I've prepared a precompiled multi-driver image that can autodetect and handle nearly 30 PCI and ISA NICs. My "remote boot kit" contains the same image in 4

I'm experimenting with using WinXP Xen guests as an alternative to upgrading workstations. The administrative advantages seem overwhelming. Please share thoughts about using VNC vs RDP for remote desktop connections. Please share any anecdotal information regarding user reactions and/or implementation issues.

Hi! I have a particular need... I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but surely here there are people that can say me if it is feasible or not... I'm working for a thin-client distribution (thinstation.sf.net); I want to boot it from various media (netowork, cdrom, hd, usb key...), and at the moment syslinux/isolinux/pxelinux are doing it very well... The problem is that the

Hi all, I'm looking for a tool to create and manage the users' profiles in GNOME desktop environment. I've searched Pessulus (included in GNOME admin tools by default according GNOME docs) whitout success. I've tried to compile Sabayon (the CentOS rpm is not avaiable I think) but there are a lot of dependencies to resolve. ?Any ideas? Thanks in advance. -- Jordi Espasa

Hi I am an engineer who is making communication systems. I have a board(made by Kontron ltd, Intel CPU, currently with diskless ) that is used in compactPCI. I boot that board with network PXELINUX method and currently using NFS. But I don't want to use NFS and I want to make and use ram disk image. That means I want to use a ram disk as /. Currently I made a initrd by ltsp_initrd_kit. What

Dear list, My employer uses a Windows 2000 Terminal Server-based system for its college-wide managed computer service - computers connect directly to the WTS servers for their sessions, using a Citrix ICA client. When I asked them to install R (Windows) on an older version of this service the IT guys installed it but pulled it for performance issues. I am trying to get them to try again but

Thank you for that. I?ve set up the thinstation-v5.6.1.iso in vm and setup the chroot. I did my first ./build ?allmodules and wrote the iso to usb using lili version 2.0 so that I can boot with older syslinux. I am doing this for the needed hardware profile to build from inside the vm however the usb has been stuck on the syslinux version line with a line following: Thinstation..... for 30 minutes
