(6 users top, it's small) You can use "plain X". Most thin clients are able to talk to a remote X system. You would have to install and set up xdm and configure the network accordingly. See 6.6.4. here: http://www.nl.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/x-xdm.html You can find examples here: http://www.freebsdwiki.net/index.php/X_Windows_Terminal Depending on what the thin clients run internally, there might be some configuration work, but in most cases, they "just work" (TM) as long as you haven't done anything stupid. ;-) -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
