Terminal Server Support?Terminal Server Support?Posted Aug 18, 2005 23:52 UTC (Thu) by AnswerGuy (guest, #1256)Parent article: Ubuntu Breezy Badger "Colony 3" now available
I like Ubuntu better than KNOPPIX in a few respects. The main one is
I think the use of snapshots for COW (copy-on-write) is a clever alternative to UnionFS.
However, one thing I really miss in Ubuntu is the KNOPPIX terminal server support. When I'm setting up a class to teach some Linux concepts using KNOPPIX terminal server is a fast way to get a room full of machines running Linux without installing it on any of them. It's also handy for making a PXE bootable rescue image.
So I'm hoping they're adding it.

Terminal Server Support? Posted Aug 19, 2005 5:28 UTC (Fri) by mdz@debian.org (subscriber, #14112) [Link] I'm not intimately familiar with Knoppix's terminal server feature, but if it's anything like it sounds, we've had this feature planned for the Ubuntu 5.10 release for some time now, through a partnership with the LTSP project.

Terminal Server Support? Posted Aug 25, 2005 12:27 UTC (Thu) by nix (subscriber, #2304) [Link] Knoppix supports LVM as well. I used it to LVMize one of my systems back in the Knoppix 3.7 days, a year ago now...
Terminal Server Support? Posted Oct 4, 2005 8:08 UTC (Tue) by rokdun (guest, #32849) [Link] Knoppix *used* to support LVM... In Knoppix 3.9, no LVM. In 3.6, there was LVM 1, probably the same in 3.7. I don't know if there are plans to add it, though...
