They're actually not. LTSP will boot a thin client: FreeNX won't. Think of NX as a super-duper-crazy-fast upgrade to VNC. They're not exactly the same, but the overall concept is. > Also, when would you use them together? 1. LTSP over a WAN. Boot locally, but work globally (TM). :) 2. Session saving.
