Our security requirements specify that the OS have a write lock option

similiar option? The idea being that no one would be able to access the
OS and store data.
Hi. I'm not sure there is such a thing as a "true zero client", or how it
would be defined. The Sun Ray DTUs are indeed very "thin", but this also
means that they are less flexible. For example, they are locked to one
single protocol and vendor.
Most thin terminals nowadays are running Linux, thus in principle a "full"
operating system. Various lock down approaches are being used. For
example, the HP ThinPro normally runs with a file system which is write
protected except for the path /writable. With the command "fsunlock", it
is possible to write enable the rest of the file system. This allows for
example installation of our ThinLinc Client package. Afterwards, you run
"fslock". Terminals from IGEL, Dell/Wyse, Fujitsu etc uses a similar
approach.
If you are considered about the risk of storing local data, perhaps one
solution would be to disable client file access? With the ThinLinc Client,
the "Local Drive Redirection" subsystem is a separate process/binary, and
if you simply remove that file, this feature will be disabled.

The t610s we have are pretty snazzy out of the box, but they seem to come
with two different flavors of 'firmware':
ThinPro, and SafeZero or something like that. The latter one seems to have
very few connections out of the box. ThinPro has more connection options
(including XDMCP, which isn't secure, but is easy to set up).
I don't remember seeing "thinlinc" - what OS & version are you running on
those t610s?
Hi Dave,
you need the ThinPro OS on the t610 AND then you can install the
thinlinc client package into the ThinPro Linux
very simple

We achieve this with T610 and thinlinc. The sessions are encrypted, we
have two factor authentication and all our data stays in the enclave.
Users hop from thinlinc to remote desktop sessions which achieves further
logical separation between sensitive systems and the users.
Nothing is held locally, unless you count some LCD burn in!

We are also looking for a 3D/zero client solution. Our data has to stay
in the datacenter so a true PCoIP is necessary so we can process classifed
data in unclassifed areas without the risk of the device retaining any data.

Tobi,
Did you do much 3D work with the T610?
hi scott
i have not tried the virtual 3d stuff ... note that the t610 should be fine
cheers

We moved to thinlinc (Google it..) and are very pleased. I have
about
120 terminals now and I don't think we have had any issues. We had
sunray and thinlinc on the same servers so migration was super easy.
But thinlinc is software, right? What sort of hardware do you use?
we use hp t1600 but they are a bit low powered, so we now started
using the gigabyte brix i3 (booting diskless linux)
that's t610
sorry
