Re: [gentoo-user] LTSP vs. Diskless Nodes

[Ryan Viljoen]

Thank you both Bob and Uwe that gives me something to think about.

Uve I am from South Africa. Summer is going to be a scortcher I am fearing December January.

Back on topic, I am helping out my old High School and they are wanting to setup thin clients in all the class rooms for the teachers. There is an existing thin client setup there now but the clients tend to hang on a regular basis. I suspect it is due to NFS because at times you get the connection error message until it resumes the connection. Either way they have tasked me to replace it or fix it, personally I would prefer to replace it such that I can standardise it with the other linux machines.

So hence why I was looking at both LTSP and diskless nodes offerings.
