Dear all, I want to install Debian on a couple of brand new workstations (15) and servers -- is there a convenient way to automatize the installation procedure in some way?
The workstations should get their home directories from one of the servers. Would it be advantageous to install the different user programs (we need TeX, xemacs, WordPerfect and/or StarWriter, the gimp and other graphics progs, netscape, maybe a database, a MUA and so on) on the server too? (Unfortunately, I've not much experience in the field of networking.) At last: it's unwanted that the different users can see (read, write, delete ...) each others data files -- is there a way to do that without any action on the users' side? Any hints and tips appreciated, thanks, joachim
