hi list
i have a FC6 box which has 1 GB RAM and two 1 GHz XEON Processors. i want to give a remote desktop to about 40 clients simaltaneously.
but notice that its not like vnc which shares a single desktop, rather i want to give every user which logs in a new personal desktop which is not shared with other users. (may be just like windows terminal services)
is there any such software which can be used for this purpose?
can the above mentioned HArdware support about 40 simal;taneous user connections???
Look at the k12ltsp project: http://k12ltsp.org/mediawiki/index.php/Main_Page
It is a re-spun fedora distribution with some extra stuff including the ltsp package that lets you network boot thin clients. There is also a version based on Centos if you want something with a longer update cycle. There's an active mail list of users, most but not all in educational settings and many run that number of clients (you'll probably need more RAM, though and that server won't be extremely fast). In addition to network booting, the system will allow other ways of connecting, including remote X sessions, vnc (configured to start a new sesson per connection) or freenx with the NX client.
If you don't want to re-install, it is also possible to drop the ltsp package in and set it up yourself, but I'd recommend installing k12ltsp on a text box so you can at least copy the way they do things.
