Most computer networks are fat client networks, where each computer on the network is fully responsible for all its processing, so it has to have all the software installed on its local harddrive and enough memory and processing power to run all that software. Unfortunately, these networks are inefficient uses of resources and very costly to maintain. Fed up with managing networks which were increasingly unmanageable, today many network administrators are turning to thin client networks as a way to simplify network management and hold their costs at bay. Similar to the old dumb terminals, thin clients are only in. | A HEMISPHERIC INITIATIVE Thin Client Computing Installation Manual Prepared by Amos Becker Batto email amosbatto AT yahoo DOT com web http www.ciber-runa.net serendipity Managed by The Center of Information and Communication Technology for Development CETIC.BO Quipus Foundation of Bolivia www.quipusbolivia.org World Computer Exchange of North America www.worldcomputerexchange.org With Financial Support from The International Development Research Center IDRC www.idrc.ca The Institute for Connectivity in the Americas - ICA www.icamericas.net License This work is public domain and may be freely copied modified and redistributed.
