So ?? Is it SAFE for me to use OpenSuse 11 + KIWI-LTSP at my Office ?? I've plan to install new LTSP Server using OpenSuse 11 + KIWI-LTSP.
Instead of KIWI-LTSP .. what should I use wiht OpenSuse 11 if I would like to implement LTSP ? can I use LTSP-4.2 ? Need your suggestion. Best Regards, Donny Christiaan.
