  1. Hiya, Wondering if anyone can recommend software suppliers. Anyone use Phoenix software or Pugh? Thanks.
  2. I dont see many 16 core alternatives. I have some 12 core examples and 8 core. Search results for dl385 g7 - Misco.co.uk Search results for HP DL165 G7 - Misco.co.uk The 12 core DL165's look more expensive than the DL385's at a glance, I will see why that is when I get a minute. With 35 clients, which will mostly be using KS1 software, i may am wondering if i would need to go for 2 x12 core cpu's or just the 2 x8 cores?
  3. Thanks a lot CTO? caffeine to opium?
  4. Ok the thinclient count was incorrect, we are actually looking at 35 thinclients. How much more of an impact are the extra 15 ? Is this a definite 2 x 8 core cpu setup, or is this inadequate? RAM requirements guestimates would be useful if anyone could help with that also? Thanks.
  5. Search results for DL385 G7 - Misco.co.uk I see there are some other DL 385 servers, but 8 core, would these be sufficient for thinclient setup 20 clients, possible VDI? am just comparing with the other 8 core example DL165 which you already said would prob be sufficient. Search results for HP DL165 G7 - Misco.co.uk Is it imperative to have more than 1 CPU when running VDI? Thanks
  6. Thanks. I am not sure of budget constaints I just get told to 'get a price'. I do not want to be frivolous with money, but I would like to have the capabilities to run a virtual environment maybe from the outset or maybe at another juncture. I really need to read up on servers and know what I am buying is fit for purpose. In regards to licensing I am not sure about prices for just a Microsoft RDP setup, i will have to look, have never had a terminal server setup so not sure how licensing works, or rough costs. Also server software, I will need 2008 R2 with Hyper-V I presume, would I be better waiting for 'Server 8' I am also pondering. Windows server being the way to go so I could use RDP or citrix.
  7. Is there a lower priced server that would be sufficient, without making my boss throw his hole punch or stapler at me wen I mention the cost?
  8. What would the software/licences costing be for your setup? How much for the server? Thanks
  9. multimedia etc
  10. 20 clients Not sure of budget
  11. Hiya, looking at a new rack server to run a small thinclient network. Would consider a tower if the cost and performance far out weighed a rack server. But due to space a rack would be preferrable. Anyone any recommendations of models they use? Thanks
  12. Out of curiosity waht sort of backup recovery precautions would you use with virtual?
  13. Any recommendations of model of server? thanks
  14. Its ok managed with the systemrescuecd
  15. Cheers Am trying to get systemrescuecd to boot from pxe, I managed with gparted which needed a filesystem to reside on a webserver. I have not yet managed with systemrescuecd but am looking into this. And slax i will try too. Any pointers on systemrescuecd setup for pxe? Thanks
  16. I think I am getting mixed up. After speaking to HP again. Its a branding tool that HP said I need, and I think its regarding the OEM software, so that it associates itself and works with the new boards serial number. Forget that link
  17. I installed the Windows thin PC. Err not right sure how to get usage ouf of this. Seems there is no RDP or anything to use for a remote session. This thinclient sees to be thin on instructions also. Google's not much help
  18. Hiya, Thanks fo this. Not sure how to download this Windows Thin PC. I have signed in to volume licensing centre and i am looking for a freebie :-)
  19. Hiya I have almost given up with thinstation due to the session error, and am now trying to build a debian distro with an rdp client to use as a thinclient What do other people use as their thinclients Thanks
  20. Hiya Has anyone had to change a HP motherboard on a laptop and used this: "Utility to Reprogram an Electronic Serial Number into BIOS" HP Compaq d530 Convertible Minitower Desktop PC*-* Utility to Reprogram an Electronic Serial Number into BIOS - HP Business Support Center I have a faulty laptop and it costs £389 to send away for repair But i guess the motherboard will be cheaper, but have been told that the serial in the bios must correspond with the mboard Thanks
  21. Hiya, So is this a PXE boot server?
  22. Hiya Wondering what server is adequate for about 20 thinclients. Also wonder whether virtualisation is preferred to physical Thanks.
  23. Is there a way to enable blank passwords on RDWeb login page? Thanks
  24. Thanks Am currently looking into the configuration of desktops, sound, security, apps etc Any good guides on these areas. I am gonna have a search but if there are any ones that people use would be appreciated
