Can you please clarify for this newbie. This means the files reside on the logon server but to the users they seem to be mounted directly in the server?
Can you please give me a bit more info about the firewall setup? I have heard of a program called smoothwall. It is a firewall and a proxy server. It runs on 486s and up. What are other alternatives? It must need a special lightweight distribution to run effectively on a 486. I am interested in this option. 486s and low spec Pentiums are cheap and easy to get. I am interested to know how much benefit would be gained from a proxy server. At present we have dialup but are likely to upgrade to dsl in a month or so. Students would often be accessing the same websites. -----Original Message----- From: Anselm Martin Hoffmeister [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, 17 June 2004 6:39 p.m. To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Krsnendu dasa; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Ltsp-discuss] Server hardware recommendations I'd suggest going like this: Have an LTSP server with two NICs that has all terminals on eth0 and runs dhcp..., NFS for them. Have the second NIC connected to a separate network, where another (hard drive + win logon) server and a 486 (firewalling) live. In that setup, you'd mount the file server's "/home" to the LTSP box. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by The 2004 JavaOne(SM) Conference Learn from the experts at JavaOne(SM), Sun's Worldwide Java Developer Conference, June 28 - July 1 at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, CA REGISTER AND SAVE! http://java.sun.com/javaone/sf Priority Code NWMGYKND _____________________________________________________________________ Ltsp-discuss mailing list.
