Anyone have any success running a Linux Terminal Server? I am thinking about running one in a production environment and was wondering of anybody's experiences doing something similar....

Any thoughts are fully appreciated :)

TIA

UNIX, and I assume Linux also, fully supports client access from other workstations (any OS) using Telnet or X-Windows. Unlike Windows it has always been a client server OS.

Thanks sswhite :)

I'm googling for some resources on x windows - anybody know of any good ones?

TIA

Will you be using Windows boxes to connect to the linux server, or will the workstations run linux too?

If you are looking for a Windows X client, try eXceed. Most Linux distros have X support built in.

Win Boxes.... I have some thin clients running wince though, they may be a problem :o

Looking now :)

I think that you should take a look at Xorg (1). For the thinclients you can try Xserver (2).

(2) http://xserver.freedesktop.org

[EDIT] Hmmm... the url tags aren't working.
