Hi -

I'm a primary school teacher/web designer in Queensland, Australia, with 
average php scripting skills and a mac/windows background.

My aim is to switch our school (and maybe one day the entire state!) to 
Linux & OSS.
But I'm having a slow start:

Have recently installed K12LTSP on one machine with two ethernet cards, one 
connected to the net and the other to a switch. I have one other old windows 
machine connected to the switch (as a trial/demo) and now I'm stuck. I'm not 
finding it all as easy as it says on www.k12ltsp.org ("up in 20 minutes").
A linux pro physically at my side would be great but since I haven't the 
money to fly anyone over here's 2 simple questions to start with:

Q - does my client machine have to be linux/windows?

Q - where on the desktop/ redhat 'start' menu do I find rdesktop?

Oh, and I only installed the second network card after I installed K12ltsp 
onto the server machine - would the easiest thing be to re-install k12ltsp 
so that it can configure everything automatically?


My school by the way:
www.redeemer.qld.edu.au
(spot the OSS)

Thanks in advance,

Debbie
