Sun Ray's do not use X as their display protocol. They use a frame

allows for things such as session state management. I do not think they
can be an X based client, whether with ltsp or without.

With the exception that the users currently logged in to the server
that goes down will lose their sessions, a reboot of the workstations
should give a login prompt to the server that is left.
Actually you will not need to reboot the workstations. Either the X

windows NT DC. So yes you can have one set of user accounts.

It also avoids the situation where your system becomes more or less
unuseable due to some log in /var filling up the filesystem.

I keep seeing VNC as an alternative to X, but unless they haver changed
something recently isn't VNC a one to one desktop tool (meaning only one

The X Window system was made for what would equate to "Publishing"
(Citrix's term for running a single application over an ICA session). All
he must do is make sure that he has some kind of X Server software running
on the windows machine and redirect the output of the application to it.

Joey,
It would be great if you could explain your setup for us a little more
in-depth. It sounded like you got things working well enough to deploy. To
know what you used and what you ran into along the way would go along way
for many of us. That is if you do not mind taking the time.
