I'm curious as to what the bandwidth requirements are going to be like on the network? Can anyone give me a ballpark figure on how much bandwidth each RDP client will eat up when doing a Windows Terminal Server session? I have the resources to make significant upgrades to the network, but I don't want to spend the money if its not necessary. Thanks! Casey Woods </PRE> </BLOCKQUOTE> Why not consider doing a K12LTSP thin client solution? :-) Seriously, though, since this is a K12 *Linux* Terminal Server Project, I don't know if people have done bandwidth analyses for the Windows protocols. However, I can tell you that, with K12LTSP, TuxType can use up 73Mb/sec of X11 traffic per client. Therefore, in a LTSP situation like K12LTSP, you'd definitely want to go with 100Mb on the desktop. --TP </BODY> </HTML>
