Keld, I can tell you from personal experience with VNC and a Windows environment that you don't really want to do this. VNC under Windows isn't particularly good at refreshing windows after they update. For example, whenever I remote control into our Windows NT print server using VNC, I have to s

Hi Jason Being a relative newbie to LTSP, I wasn't sure, what to look for, and thanks for the pointers. I seem to have narrowed it down to a S3 775 chip that XF86 reports as not being S3, but a Sigma REALMagic chip, and these are giving me untold headaches. If I set it to XF86_SVGA, I get a seg

Hi! VNC is a system to completely copy a screen to another screeen, and also have control via the keyboard and mouse on the other machine. What would be the implications of VNC run from a LTSP terminal to a Windows workstation? Licencewise would that require another Windows license? Performance
