Well done Rob, and thanks for all your hard work. It was great to see 
how easy it was just to plug in the server and the firewall and have a 
couple of workstations up and running. But I know from personal 
experience that setting up an LTSP server, while a lot of fun is also 
very time consuming.

The children seemed to gain access without any problems and although the 
attention was predominantly on flash games the network coped more than 
adequately.

It was good to see people other than the usual DCGLUG members enjoying 
using GNU/Linux technologies. LTSP really is a good solution for 
clustered desktop environments and it's a shame that we dont see enough 
of it in use..... its time will come soon I hope.


Tom.
