Re: [openthinclient-user] General questions
Hi, From what I can tell - it sounds like your environment would be suitable for OTC. It is possible to put the OTC manager on your DC, however, I wouldn't recommend it. It would be better if you put it on your terminal server. Two other things to consider - How much RAM do those older computers have and what kind of processor? I didn't have much success with the client on older computers. Also, will you be perfomring PXE boot across subnets? If so, you will need to add an IP helper address that points to the OTC server.

The thinclients are old computers. The thinclients should build autimaticly a RDP Connection to the terminalserver. My first questions: Is openthinclient right for me? Where do I install the openthinclient Manager? Can it be run on the Terminalserver?

Re: [openthinclient-user] Openthinclient in existing PXE environment
Hi Jody, It will probably depend on the TFTP server you are using. Please let us know. On Wed, May 22, 2013 at 9:40 PM, Jody Whitlock tierscheiss1...@hotmail.comwrote: My question is, how does one setup an existing PXE menu on an existing TFTP server to boot the OpenthinclientOS? Or, if this is an option, since my existing TFTP environment is on Ubuntu 12.04, can I install the OTC server there and just do soft links?

Just configure your dhcp server to provide ip settings. OTC will handle pxe request by his self. Try to deactivate every kind of firewall. And OTC and dhcp must not be on the same Server.
