LTSP eLibrary at Dang

Jan 2007

The report of LTSP based eLibrary deployment at Shree Adarsha Madhyamik Vidhyalaya, Lalmatiya, Dang. The project was by Help Nepal Network (HeNN) in technical collaboration with IOE FOSS Community.

A total of eight computers were acquired for the lab: three of which were Pentium IV computers and rest Pentium I's. Among the Pentium IVs, one was used as Linux LTSP server. Rest of the Pentium IV computers were configured to dual boot Microsoft Windows XP or Linux LTSP through the server. The Pentium I computers were used as thin client terminals. These terminals were diskless and were run with the processing power of the server over network.

As far as we know, this was the first computer lab in a government school in mid-western Nepal and perhaps the first usage of LTSP for social purpose.
