	Linux Terminal Server Project \| Linux Journal
		There is an open-source project that could make a huge difference in Latin America: the Linux Terminal Server Project or LTSP (http://www.ltsp.org/).
		Red Hat 6.2 (http://www.redhat.com/) was the distribution of choice for the server because it had been fully tested, and it's easy to configure and maintain.
		That the K12 Project is aimed mainly at schools and children is proof of the great advancement and significance of the LTSP.
	www.linuxjournal.com /article/4663 (2089 words)

	Linux Terminal Server Project - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Applications run on the server with a terminal known as a thin client handling input and output.
		The founder and project leader of LTSP is Jim McQuillan.
		The MILLE Project is funded by Canadian public agencies and school districts in the province of Quebec.

	LWN: A look at the Linux Terminal Server Project
		Since the Linux Terminal Server Project (LTSP) came away with the Best of Show award at LinuxWorld Conference and Expo (LWCE) last week, we thought this would be a good time to take a look at the project and its status.
		LTSP originated out of a project that began in 1996, to provide a solution for Binson's Hospital Supplies (BHS) that would allow access to an AS/400 for legacy applications and Unix for new applications from a single computer or terminal on each desktop.
		Basically, LTSP is a distribution of Linux that sits on the server and is loaded by a thin client over a network using Etherboot or the Preboot Execution Environment (PXE).

	LWN: The future of the Linux Terminal Server Project (Linux.com)
		So it's more like a system for doing X terminals were your using a existing Linux distro to do the X clients (the applications) portions and to serve as a PXE (or etherboot or whatnot) boot strap server to launch a mini linux system for running the diskless X terminals.
		I used LTSP on a project a couple of years ago, and even used it on a couple of client machine on the local net for a while, so I have a reasonable idea of how it works.
		The LTSP package installs (or did then) a complete root environment for the clients to mount as well as config files you could tweak from which the client-machine config files were generated dynamically at boot-time.

	Introducing the Linux Terminal Server Project
		This project was born out of the need to solve a problem for a customer who needed a terminal that could communicate with both an IBM AS/400 and a Unix application server.
		In most cases, the bootp server, tftp server, nfs server and xdm server will all be the same machine, we will refer to that simply as the 'Server', and we will refer to the diskless workstation as the 'Workstation'.
		There are several HOWTO's that explain how to setup a server for diskless booting of a single workstation, but they don't discuss the problems involved in serving many workstations from a single server.

		LTSP allows a network of low-cost, diskless workstations to connect to a Linux server.
		Many schools would be able to install LTSP for the cost of a modest server, say an Athlon 850mhz with 512mb of RAM, a cheap monitor and video card (these last two aren't even needed), for less than $1,000.
		LTSP provides a simple means for schools to make Linux workstations available to their students without incurring significant costs.

	LTSP - Linux Terminal Server Project - v4.1 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Starting with version 4.1, LTSP has a package of utilities for installing and managing the LTSP client packages (The stuff that is executed on the thin clients), and for configuring the services on the LTSP server.
		Assuming that the server and workstation are configured properly, it should just be a matter of inserting the boot floppy in the floppy drive and turning on the workstation.
		That is, the client application runs on the server, using the servers' CPU and memory, while it displays its output on the workstation and uses the workstations' keyboard and mouse.

	Linux.com \| The future of the Linux Terminal Server Project
		LTSP has been around since 1999, when Jim McQuillan and Ron Colcernian decided to solve a customer need at a home health care supply company.
		LTSP allows you to run Linux on a server, and then use thin clients (almost any computer will do) to connect to the server and receive a full-blown Linux desktop.
		LTSP project leader McQuillan, and LTSP hacker Scott Balneaves, recognized the need for a unified codebase and chose to dump the old way of doing things, and come up with one codebase for all LTSP variants.

		Go to the server hardware page for info on selecting a server, the terminal hardware page for info on purchasing workstation hardware and the workstation config page for help on plugging things in and info on installed software packages.
		Regardless of the speed of the local cpu or amount of memory in the terminal, applications run at the speed of the server and use the server memory.
		The default ip # for your LTSP server is 192.168.0.254.

	NewsForge \| Linux Terminal Server Project releases 4.2
		Project leader Jim McQuillan says that the goal of the project is to see to it that "people aren't penalized for using a thin client" and that they can have the same type of experience as a normal desktop machine.
		Right now, LTSP traffic over the local network is not encrypted for services like NFS, and McQuillan says he wants to provide the option of encryption for all services in the next release.
		Right now, LTSP is available as part of the Ubuntu distribution, and McQuillan says that the project is working with the Fedora project to include LTSP as well.

		I have had a plan in the works for a while to implement LTSP at work for a key group of users.
		In the end we decided to go with CentOS 4.2 installed on the server and downloading the LTSP installer from the projects website and setting it up on our own.
		The LTSP server is a quad Xeon PIII 700 mhz system with 3 GB of RAM.

	Cool Solutions: Setting up LTSP (Linux Terminal Server Project) and SUSE Linux Enterprise 9 for PXE Support
		This document is a quick step-by-step setup guide for the installation of LTSP on top of the latest distro release of Novell's SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, SLES 9, which is leveraging kernel 2.6.
		The steps are pretty much in line with the steps described in the documentation available from ltsp.org for LTSP 4.1, except for a few things.
		Now that you have configured all the required server sides services for LTSP, and that you have determined the MAC address for a test workstation that supports PXE (I am using VMware in my example for the diskless workstation), you are ready to give it a shot.

		Then Baillie heard of the Linux Terminal Server Project (LTSP) and thought that it would be a viable solution for the needs of St. Mary's School.
		Even though the LTSP solution would provide a high-value Open Source computing resource for the educational needs of the St. Mary's students, Baillie admitted that selling it would have been much harder with a fat budget.

		Waiting for the X server to fail 10 times can be rather irritating, so a simple way to avoid the repeated failures is to start the workstation in runlevel 3, so that the X server is NOT started automatically.
		That is, the client application runs on the server, using the servers' CPU and memory, while it displays its output on the workstation and uses the workstations' keyboard and mouse.

		Thanks to the exceptional efforts of the Linux Terminal Server Project members, such a switch is neither dramatic, nor painful.
		A terminal server is a computer running certain programs that allow other PCs to directly connect and use its resources and applications.
		By connecting them to a Terminal Server, these PCs no longer need to rely on their own hard disks, memory, CPU power etc. Instead, they connect to the power and capacity of the single server.

	K12LTSP - K12 Linux Terminal Server Project
		That means that in addition to using it as a terminal server you can run hundreds of packages for Red Hat and Fedora Linux.
		The server looks first in the /etc/dhcpd.conf file to see if there is a static address that matches the mac address of the client.
		This means that any user can sit down at any terminal regardless of the host LTSP server and still have access to his/her settings and files.
