There are versions based on both fedora and Centos (trading off the stability of Centos vs. newer apps on fedora). Since your thin client desktops really run on the server you might prefer the fedora base. http://www.k12ltsp.org/phpwiki/ They are mostly-stock distributions with ltsp and a few other things added so if you install on a 2-nic machine it will come up working (booting clients and acting as a NAT gateway) and only takes a few changes to adjust for a single nic. > I would like to b have a small box that does the dhcp and then allows > users to logon to windows or linux terminal servers. You can do it by adding ltsp to an existing distro, but it is easier with k12ltsp and everything updates together with 'yum update'. Plus there are lot of users to help with any problems on the mail list. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell at gmail.com
