IOW, Two programs Firefox and squid proxy running every such box :
Centos Desktops running in GUI mode.

Will 512MB RAM be sufficient to what you are suggesting?

I have over 300 such desktops distributed across the geographical
having a unpredictable connectivity and each one of them just use one
browser based on-line application and some cron scripts for monitoring
and logging simple details.

Changing the h/w configuration is nearly impossible now..

or is there another lightweight solution?

Thanks again Les,

Regards
