I am currently running Windows 2003 Enterprise with 10 user license.
Unfortunately, the licensing costs of a terminal server are very high. I
have never run any flavor of Linux. Is there a distro that is suitable for
terminal server use? I have a small office with about five users running tax
preparation, Microsoft Office (mostly Excel 2003) and various other
programs. Which Linux is recommended for this situation, including our
anticipated terminal server?
