You're right in that the docs are terrible - they're basically just W4L 2.0 docs. Even the readmes I had with the multi-user version were copied from the 2.0 version so didn't really apply. But guesswork and a little experimentation saw some light... What you describe below seems ideal for Win4Lin though - we have a P700 server with 256mb ram and are currently testing this with Win4Lin multi-user and some thin clients. Basically the server runs XDM and the clients use XDMCP, so effectively log in to the server directly and X displays the session remotely on the client terminal. Machine specs seem unimportant - our thin clients are low-spec pentiums with 32mb ram and happily run over 15 big apps (IE, MS Office97, databases etc) each without seeing any downturn in performance - and the performance is very very good. Obviously the more ram you can give the server the better, and I expect we'll need to double ours as we add more clients to the test, but it certainly works very well and would be ideal for your setup.
