We've deployed 25 clients and currently only have one appserver, although never would all clients be used concurrently. They work very well. We're looking to expand our thin client network as part of a wider Virtualisation Project and I'm looking at the options. What is peoples' experience with 2X and program resource sharing? For example, does it load many instances of a program or share one session? Due to the huge price difference, I assume it's not as efficient at Citrix. How many clients have people efficiently got on one 2X server? That could be a good benchmark.

We do this through our Staff Intranet. Any member of staff can change a student password through the PHP front end, logged in as themselves. This then calls a VB Script at the server and makes the LDAPS change. I would say it's reduced the password change 'visitor' numbers to the ICT Office by at least 80% and has been highly praised by all staff who've used it for its simplicity. One reason why it's so simple is that it pulls the student's DOB from SIMS and sets the password to DDMMYY, not even requiring the student to leave their seat. The only people it hasn't gone down well with are the students who like the excuse to leave the room!
