The bullding have a mult-imode fiber backbone and right now the LTSP installations are on separate vlans. If I get this really working well I may make a new "ltsp vlan" and dedicate a strand to it. > > - If your server fails (eg motherboard failure), what happens?

I would probably just replace the Mobo as fast as I could get a new one.

Do you think I can get away with something like a pcix based raid controller like this? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16816118086 John -- edubuntu-users mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/edubuntu-users
