Because of supporting ten years old hardware/CPU (linux-image-486). > How you define the master and slave server? > Like: > > Master server = Root Server > Slave Server=Application Server No. They are identical servers with very same chroot for thin clients (/opt/ltsp/i386). > We have four Servers so What should be our model One master Three > slaves or Two master two slaves? I just installed Debian LTSP in my laptop (Virtualbox). Here is virtual thin client/LXDE using 486 kernel. http://ltsp.fi/howto/Debian/Debian_TC.webm You might like to check Skolelinux / Debian Edu project, they have also documentation about load balancing. http://www.skolelinux.org/ https://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/Documentation/Wheezy/HowTo/NetworkClients#Load-balancing_LTSP_servers But remember, your hardware is very old and weak. Skolelinux / Debian Edu says: "Thin clients can run on as low as 64 MiB RAM and 133 MHz processor, though 128 MiB RAM and somewhat faster processors are recommended. For running Iceweasel/Firefox and LibreOffice, 128 MiB RAM is a minimum requirement. For workstations, diskless workstations and standalone PCs, 800 MHz, 320 MiB RAM are minimum requirements, though 512 or 1024 MiB RAM will perform considerably better. Just a faster CPU will speed things up." https://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/Documentation/Wheezy/Requirements "Note: Since such ten-year-old thin clients may also have trouble running never versions of LibreOffice and Firefox/Iceweasel due to pixmap caching issues, you may consider running thin clients with at least 128 MB RAM, or upgrade the hardware, which will also give you the benefit of being able to use them as diskless workstations." https://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/Documentation/Wheezy/HowTo/NetworkClients#Slow_login_and_security Next week I play with Debian LTSP and load balancing, and if I find something helpfull I let you know.
