This sounds encouraging. I also have an opportunity coming that may employ ltsp as the solution. I'm not sure yet. My biggest problem with LTSP is that the web browser Mozilla has this nasty problem with Flash. Besides not installing Flash on the server, are there other suggestions as to what to do? Other browsers that can handle this? This is about the only thing standing in the way right now on a technical level. -- Tom Allison ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: Dice - The leading online job board for high-tech professionals.
