We have a building with 25 LTSP clients.  We will open another location 
across town.  I need to choose to design the network.

A few topologies come to mind:
(1) to keep servers in building A and login from building B.  However, 
if there is a problem with the Internet, then all the computers in 
building B, are down. 
(2) to have servers in both buildings; but synchronization may be 
problematic.  (And will take bandwidth)
(3) to take a hybrid approach.  Remote login as in topology (1); 
however, each night 'Copy/Rsync/Unison' building A to building B.  This 
way in the event of Internet failure, building B can run locally.  So 
there I have nicely synchronized files, offsite backup, low bandwidth 
usage. 
note: (mainServer has dual Xeon processor and 8gb ram w/ raid drives)

So please cast your vote for 1, 2 or 3.  Or make your own suggestion.
many thanks.
