[K12OSN] K12LTSP 5EL and Wine

[Kemp, Levi]

Thanks Rob,
	Not sure how I missed it. Also under System and Server Status in
Webmin you can set up a monitor for Free Memory and put in a minimum
amount of Free Memory and to email you if it reaches that number. It
also tells you how much Memory is still free when you look at it. I'm
going to log in with all 30 clients in my lab later to see the effects
on the memory. I've got a server running two 2.2GHz Xeons with 4GB Ram
and 5 32GB 15k SCSI's, I'm hoping it will be enough to cover closer to
60 clients, but who knows.
