Hallo Florian, FT> I'm interested in a setup that can be used for regular thin-clients plus FT> fat-clients (machines that normally run MS Windows). There should be FT> some kind of "viewer" you can use to get terminal sessions in a window FT> (or fullscreen, doesn't matter) during normal work on these machines.
FT> VNC would be an obvious solution but it can't allocate more than a bunch FT> of sessions (about 10) IIRC. FT> Has anyone done any testing with non-commercial X servers for Windows? I FT> think there is one built with cygwin, but I never tried that... I just did (good idea). Standard installation with XFree support, then on the command line issue "X -query 10.17.151.64" (if that's your server that is LTSP-ready). Worked instantly, and like a charm. There is also a user guide (which I did not need so far) where you probably can read how to go full-screen. Remember that this is dangerous: "Hach, it's Linux, just switch the box off" (In fact, in out setup in Bonn Kardinal-Frings-Gymnasium, users start asking if they may just switch off the boxes when running Win3.1 locally) FT> Are there any other smart solutions for that problems? Commercial ones? VMware runs a ltsp terminal out-of-the-box with the lance etherboot.dsk file from rom-o-matic.net. Xwin32 also works. Free ones? No idea. Cygwin seems to be pretty cool :-) Viel Spa�, Anselm mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
