Dear Chad:
The configuration you have are more than enough to run anything even
in standalone units.
Let me give you my configuration. We have 3 thinclients (PI, 32MB, two
uses floppy and one uses an old 20MB HDD for network booting) and
connected to the Thin Server (PIII Celeron 1 Ghz, 256MB) and we are
running everything as well as the development of the eParliament.org
on them (I mean for professional purposes for some 9 months)
including Quanta, Mozilla, Firefox (both), OO, KMail and several
other stuffs without any problem. (Thanks to Jim ;-)
About 50MB of RAM should be allocated above 128MB to each thinclients,
in my experience.

Hello all! I am new to the mailing list and would like to have a
experienced opinions on an LTSP project I am currently working on.
I have been commissioned to build a new Linux network and am
hoping that LTSP will serve my needs.
I am planning on using Fedora Core 3 (or 4, not sure yet) to make
the Thin Network. Using there system specs, how many max Thin
Clients could be on one server?
Thin Server>
Duel Xeon 3GHz 64bit
4 Gigs DDR2 memory
6-500GB SATAII in RAID50 <-home directories
Gigabit Network
Thin Client>
P4 2.66GHz 64bit
512MB DDR2
Gigabit Network
I am wanting applications like Firefox,Thunderbird, Open Office to
run locally on the Clients to keep server loads down.
I know these machines are not typical of an LTSP build, but it is
what the client wants.
Any input on this config would be greatly appreciated!
~Chad
