If the local stores only have one terminal then ltsp is not really going to work. Better do a boot using a distro like damn small linux (dsl can also be embedded) and then use vpn+rdesktop to connect to remote server??? -- Regards, Sudev Barar Read http://blog.sudev.in for topics ranging from here to there. PS: I know most of people do not follow email niceties (mostly they are not aware) but if you follow bottom post/in-line post style of email conversations it becomes a whole lot easier to carry on meaningful dialogue and you can snip out what is not meaningful too. Most people just hit reply button and top post leaving prior message appended uselessly at bottom. See if you can adopt this style and persuade others. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
