Hi Jane, Erick Woods is the author of this public domain software. I can't speak for him, but I'm sure that he'd be interested in the usefulness that his software is providing in your efforts. I am also sure that your team working on the EdUbuntu package would also find this package, "Terminal Server Client" useful in their efforts for Thin/Thick/Fat clients. Thanks for the efforts of your people in looking into this. I feel that this client provides universal client connections to servers and is the simple model needed for education personnel to allow simple connections of students to servers without a lot of time spent in learning specialized client applications. Thanks again.....George ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jane Weideman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "G.C.
