I am interested, if someone knows the difficulties to setup a huge LTSP, what
means several hundreds of clients.
- Where are the biggest problems?
- How much KDE-clients can i use performantly per server doing
office/internet-jobs?
- What type of server for this amount?
- Do the different servers(kdm/gdm/xfs) work reliable in big clusters?
- How good does distributing of sound work REALLY?
- What about network bandwidth?
- Smallest Client (CPU, Memory)?
Why i am asking:
I have to examine the usability of LTSP for big clusters of Desktops.
Until now i've got only experiences with a small LTSP (5 clients). And that
experiences are not so perfect, p.e. i have to restart the server every night
to prevent it from blocking clients. It seems that GDM/KDM are not cleanly
removing old sessions, so that after two or three days the maximum is
achieved.
Are there other impacts, that i will only notice if i am going big?

Please don't ask me about my project, in the moment i am not allowed to talk
about details. I will post the results then, if it will be done.
Help me to solve my questions, please ;-)
