Here we go Arshpreet. You can have for your 200 thin clients with one 
root server and three application servers.

Because of HP t5xxx thin clients you need Debian distro.

You can choose traditional LTSP with chroot or LTSP-PNP. This one is 
LTSP-PNP and I recommend it.


In this setup I have one root server and two application servers. Root 
server in this setup have i386.img for thin clients, users and /home. 
Two application servers have nothing but applications and ldm-server 
package for LTSP.

When all servers are online you just run this (thanks to Vagrant).

"ltsp-update-sshkeys debian-app-01 debian-app-02 192.168.0.106 
192.168.0.107"

"ltsp-update-image -c /"


I will make later this week(end) more detailed howto about this kind of 
setup. And here we go with thin clients for both application server 
without fear of MITM. With LTSP-PNP you can run both thin and fat 
clients.

thin - 64MB - http://ltsp.fi/howto/Debian/i386_64MB.webm
fat - 512MB - http://ltsp.fi/howto/Debian/i386_512MB.webm
