The next step... details

Riding the wave of warmth from seeing volunteers help to successfully boot the thin clients AND actually seeing these thin clients behave so snappily, I detail the next details...

Server management

1. Customize the LTSP boot image (I know this has got a specific name...)
2. Set up the computers on the server (registering their MAC #'s I think)
3. Get the printers to work and set up the print server
   
4. Set up Internet Proxy server
5. Get the document camera to work
6. Get the data projector that is mounted in class to work with Edubuntu
7. Set up VNC server
8. Configure server to connect to sound cards on thin clients

10. Make it so that flash drives auto-mount
