[K12OSN] MAP Testing through the NWEA(Measures ofAcademic Progress)

[Chris Bacigalupo]

Yes, I have 26 CALs for windows terminal services and my win2k server
set up to run them. I have my LinTerm (actually running SuSE/KDE not
LTSP stuff) pods(13 ea) set to rdesktop to the win2k box. When I logon
with the "testaker" profile, it auto launches NWEA and see the NTE on
the win2k box.

And rdesktop connects to a Windows Terminal Server??? I can't remember 
the specifics of rdesktop.
