[K12OSN] K12LTSP across the Wan

[Rondall Stewart]

That is pretty much the consensus.  However, I am talking about 30+ at a time.  I am afraid I am going to place a Level 2 server at each location.  Only 4 weeks into my Linux experience,  I am learning as I go.  I have read about enabling X forwarding through a SSH login.  But I am afraid this will also be to slow for mass connections.

I wouldn't want to run thin clients across the WAN, however, you can do a
minimal install of Winders or linux and use VNC to connect across the WAN
for reasonable use with a few computers.

The computers just need at least 800x600 and 32MB of RAM or more.

Remember this will not support too many at a time or things will get to
where response is slow.
