Ubuntu ltsp server version 8.04 review
this server is a very useful tool other than the fact that it will screw up your admin privileges in under a day (i do not know why this is) it comes with open office. this version of Ubuntu server is not worth the time due to the fact that the root passwords and admin privileges are bugged up after the first use. i have not found any way to revers this (mister hunt said,"just write the review and scrap it :D").
this server is a dhcp server (meaning: you can PXE boot machines off of this server) which allows you to make other computers run without having hard drives or Os's. in order to boot off of this you are required to have a nic ram video card and 2 Ethernet cables one going from the machine to the switch the other going from the switch to the the 2nd nic in the server.
i do not recommend this server to anyone who doesn't have allot of patients because there are a lot of bugs in it in my opinion. one for instance is the fact that if you don't have to http proxy typed in exactly correct then you have to reboot and start over the installation. another bug is again the root password and the admin privileges getting denied from the user on the root account
