Of course you can. I do this all the time.<br>
<br>
BTW, if you're looking for something that doesn't use terminal
services, then while you certainly can use K12LTSP for that, you don't
*have* to. Any GNU/Linux or *BSD system that has CUPS will work just
fine. I've used CentOS, Debian, Slackware, K12LTSP 4.2EL, Ubuntu,
Yellow Dog Linux--even FreeBSD at one point. All of these have CUPS.<br>

<pre wrap="">Thanks. So basically I can install the K12LTSP on a machine and use it just
for the CUPS function without the terminal services part.
(Sorry, maybe not a bright question) but I assume I can also use it as a
file server to host the files for my unattended Windoze installs? I'm use
to using a DOS network boot disk to connect to the current Windoze server on
which the unattended installs reside. Is the connection process (we can't
use PXE) basically the same?
Thanks,
Jeremy

I'm looking for a program that would share out printers to all students

take a look at CUPS (Common Unix Printing System), it should be
already on K12LTSP,
it has quotas and logging feature you wanted.
