Possible stumbling blocks will be your potential need for non-free software, which is not included by default in Debian.
I only suggest trying a different distro because you stated that you are soured on Edubuntu. You might want to try installing Wheezy instead of Squeeze (the current stable release). Wheezy is "frozen" and will be the next stable release. It has newer LTSP-related packages than Squeeze. But on the other hand, Squeeze has been very well-tested and will have security updates for at least a year (a year after Wheezy is released as Stable). I'm currently using LTSP on Squeeze, but I don't do much with it besides web browsing and listening to music. -Rob ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
