Hi Uwe, You are probably best off installing a jabber server on the LTSP server and routing all the kids chat sessions through that. Local connections tend to drop off after 15-20 concurrent users. I use ejabberd for xmpp (jabber) connections, and using a client like empathy u can even do video/audio chat across the local network.
