Oh, Ok, I think I know where I have gone wrong, to make the system seem easier for users we gave each server a name for example the PDC is called Xen, these names where given before we even knew about the Xen virtual server stuff, so this might confuse people a little. I have also done some very bad grammar, for example, I wrote:

When a user logs into the network their username and password are authenticated by Xen. Once authenticated, Xen passes the login script to the client computer, which gives the user their network connections automatically.

When in fact I should of wrote:

When a user logs into the network their username and password are authenticated by Samba. Once authenticated, the PDC passes the login script to the client computer, which gives the user their network connections automatically.

I tried to keep things to the computer names and not the service names as it starts to get confusing for newbie users, they start saying what is Samba or what is WinBind etc etc instead of going oh, thats the same as my PDC at the moment does, I tried to keep it simple but may of gone to far.

I will look into having to re-write these descriptions. Are there anything else that makes the project look LOW quality, I am trying to promote this to UK schools, and any hints or tips would be welcome.

PDC (Primary Domain Controller) is just as confusing for a "newbie" I guess. :) Maybe something like central authentication server? (although its a little more)

At least I would list the features and possibilities not the services. Try to make it clear and understandable.

I would suggest to give some technical description as well. For us ;) or for the system administrator of school X who wonders what this magic solution is all about. There should be some technical description about installation and maintainance at least.

And what David points out. :)

We still don't know what Karoshi is exactly.

Herman
