[...] |it have to be completely based on freeware software? so Linux is the chosen ^^^^^^^^ "Free" software, not freeware, please! ("freeware" = distribuibile gratuitamente anche se proprietario, "free" = libero e _non_ proprietario) | |I want it to be a server based structure, the diskless workstations has |to be stupid machines, the only thing I want them to do is to boot to LAN, |look to the server and after that I want server take control, ask the user |login and password and after the authentication loads inside itself the |user?s profile (like it do using Alt+F1, Alt+F2, ecc?). So far, this is what LTSP ia about. | The only difference |I want is that the output (monitor) is not local but the one of the remote |computer and the input (mouse and keyboard) is not local but the one of |the remote computer. | What do you mean by "remote computer", is it the workstation booting from the network? This is exactly what LTSP does. |After I read a few of this project?s documentation what I understand is |that you do not consider the diskless as a complete idiot machine but you |load in its memory the OS and in the server?s PC you create references for |all remote machines. | By default, the workstation loads the kernel and the init program from the server, and ther starts either a telnet session (runlevel 4) or an X session (xdm login, runlevel 5). You could run applications locally on the workstations, but that's an option, by default the server runs the all.
