Server-based computing with the free X2Go terminal server
Staying Thin
Author(s): HEINZ-M. GRAESING, MARKUS FEILNER
The open source X2Go project is rapidly approaching version 3, which adds features such as new clients and seamless windows.
X2Go is a free, fast, and flexible terminal server for any client that supports modern authentication technologies, such as card readers, USB tokens, centralized user management via LDAP, and authentication tools integrated in the KDE system management system. The X2Go project was inspired by the Sun Ray product line, which has impressed thin client fans since 2006. The second Sun Ray release included lean devices that lets users log on using a smartcard to work on a centralized terminal server.
