The "Select and install software" progress bar stays at 5% for what seems like a very long time. Don't worry, the install is still progressing normally. The progress bar will move again after a few minutes.

In a thin client computing environment, the stability of the server is important. It's important to make sure that your server has good power management, like installing a UPS, and depending on how much availability is required, redundant power supplies may be called for. As well, users who have the resources may decide to invest in multiple disks for RAID support, and other options which may be needed in a High Availability environment. However, you certainly don't need them in all environments, and Edubuntu's high quality means that in all but the most demanding environments, this won't be needed.

Chances are, hardware that you already have is more than sufficient for terminals. One of the great advantages of an Edubuntu Server is that you can set up a high quality lab of terminals for your students to use, by leveraging the machines you already have. As for servers, usually, it's very easy to turn any high-end single user desktop machine into a terminal server capable of handling many thin clients. We'll present some guidelines that should help in making the most of your resources.

An Edubuntu/LTSP thin client network is quite scalable; a moderately powerful machine can serve several thin clients, and if you need to add more thin clients, you can either expand the capabilities of the existing server, or, simply add more servers.

Server sizing in an LTSP network is more art than science. Ask any LTSP administrator how big a server you need to use, and you'll likely be told "It depends". How big a server you need does depend largely on what it is you're planning on doing with your thin client network. The server requirements needed for a network where the only use will be a little light web-browsing, with no Java or Flash, will be greatly different from a network where you want to do heavy graphics, interactive games, and Flash animation. Here are some common guidelines that should fit most "average" cases.

<emphasis role="bold">ldm</emphasis>: This is the default display manager. It collects a username and password, and then establishes a secure, encrypted tunnel to the server via <command>ssh</command>. This should be good for most environments. Edubuntu deployments with lower-powered clients or servers may find that the extra overhead involved in encrypting the X traffic might slow their sessions, and may wish to enable the <command>LDM_DIRECTX</command> parameter described in <xref linkend="ldm"/>
