  • OpenSource Thin Client?
    What about ThinStation? That can apparently bootstrap enough components to talk to Citrix, Redhat, Windows, VMWare Horizon, etc... Apparently even telnet, VMS and SSH if you're feeling really nostalgic. Source: almost 2 years ago
  • Ubuntu server with Dump linux based terminals
    For your old clients, I guess that ThinStation will be fine, either you're using ThinLinc or other kind of remote access. https://thinstation.github.io/thinstation/. Source: about 2 years ago
  • Low power SFF PC to use as a thin client, that has four video outputs?
    Oh wow that'd be really great of you. ThinStation is what I've been looking at. But if the aren't locked down it should work. Source: about 2 years ago
  • Windows 10 to automatically log in and run remote desktop login, disable all other apps.
    I think that I've read good quality suggestions, but... Why waste a Windows license for it to work as a thin client? Try installing Thinstation - https://thinstation.github.io/thinstation/ (or make the computer boot it from network!). Source: over 2 years ago
  • Looking to set up a few of these Wyse clients... Advice? See comment.
    I hate ThinOS. Try to install anything else if you can. Thinstation is free. LTSP network boots its clients. Source: over 2 years ago
