That's a lengthy read indeed (65 pages!). I didn't read it yet, but I solved it "my way". As the only thing I needed was a silent, diskless workstation supporting disconnected sessions, operated only by me, I did: 1. A diskless machine/terminal starting via iSCSI - when it starts, X fires up with nxclient. Something like: X & export DISPLAY=:0 sleep 1s /usr/NX/bin/nxclient 2. There, I only specify the password, and it connects to the server where I run all applications If I power off the terminal, I can power it on later and re-login to the disconnected session, no data loss, no need to reopen documents etc. Perhaps it could be better integrated into LTSP (or maybe it's already described in that document). The only drawback is that I can't seem copy clipboard when: - I make yet another NX session to yet another machine from already running terminal (which is also a NX session) - I wont to copy clipboard from the second NX session to the first on (first one is the terminal). But it's more NX related, I guess. -- Tomasz Chmielewski http://wpkg.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
