Are you using divided network (and clients) or contiguous network? If it is latter then auto-load balancing would have been setup mitigating the limitation of 20 clients per server. The power of client machine could be used for local applications but in terms of admin and ease this would end up being as difficult as running individual desktops. > For 20 clients I have to use one ltsp server, this time i am using three > ltsp server which are normal desktop pc's (ADM Athlon 2.4 ghz, 2 gb Ram ). > So it can not bear the load more than 20 ltsp clients. We support 40 plus clients on single server - but dual cores CPU's with 4gb RAM. Of course the window manager you use is important here. In my experience IceWm is best as it configures easily and does not carry bloat of Gnome/KDE which are much better for single user implementations. > Another reason, after clustering I will implement Xen and run multiple > application servers on the same cluster.

With OpenMosix your application also need to be mosix aware. As per my experience if you implement OpenOffice on OpenMosix cluster the user session die down as soon as the load shifts from one node to another. -- Wishing you very best for the New Year 2007 Regards, Sudev Barar ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
