Petre/John, thanks for your replies and I appreciate it very much. This is going to be on a slow/WAN/Internet link. I tried FreeNX sometime back but was unsuccessful in limiting the user's access only to the application. Will look into it again.
I will sure try the K12LTSP using VNC in Kiosk mode and see if that works better. Thanks Again, DuKo.
