[K12OSN] LTSP Galore!

[Calvin Park, ACDS]

I'm really not sure as I've not worked with a setup that large. But all the
formula's I've seen say 512MB for the server, and 128MB for the clients (of
course, I've heard only 50MB for the clients as well), assuming 128MB per
client, you 12GB server allows for ~90 clients. At least according to the
fomula's that I've seen. Again, I'm really not sure since I've not worked
myself with something like that.

Well looks like this summer we may be stickin' terminals everywhere! As pc's
die out we will replace them with terminals. Either old ibm's or new hp 5300
terminals when we run out of the old junk. Primarily, all these terminals
will
just use the internet and openoffice. The current server we have that we
will
use for expansion is a Dell Poweredge 4600. Single 1.8ghz xeon w/4gb ram and
gig backbone. We've ordered a second processor. My question is...how many
terminals do you think I could get on one server if I expanded the ram? This
server will hold up to 12gb of Ram.
