Hi Lennert You may want to consider http://www.jopenray.com/ which is an open source Sunray server written in java, so platform independent. Cheers Lance

Message-ID: <[email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed Hello there, I have a bunch of headless machines that do have desktops (older UNIX, etc). Currently I load that desktop either by reconnecting my monitor, keyboard and mouse to whatever machine I want to work on, but that's fairly cumbersome. I've started using Xnest to connect via XDMCP to the machines, which is workable; however, I'd like to have a thin client to do that for me. A Sun Ray 270 looks like a nice option (a 3i would be nice as well, but those are hard to find and/or expensive). I can't find much info on using it as a plain thin client though, so I've got a few questions: - Is it possible to use a Sun Ray thin client as a 'standalone' client, as in, without the sun ray server software installed on the other end? - If yes, what protocols does it speak? Can it do rdesktop, xdmcp, ...? - Is the client limited to one server, or can you preconfigure multiple 'servers' to connect to that you can choose via a menu of some kind? - Are there any other things I should know before I try to pull this off? :) Thanks a lot, Lennert This e-mail message and accompanying data may contain information that is confidential and subject to privilege.
