Hello<br><br>
I've just joined the list as I suspect I may have to get re-acquainted with Linux soon - I've tried a couple of times before and given up for various reasons! However, my wife is a teacher, so I am her unofficial IT advisor, and I keep advocating OSS rather than paying vast sums of money to M$.
<br><br>
Q1: Does anyone know of any primary schools in Derby/shire already using Linux? If so workstations or servers?<br><br>
Q2: Which distro? Is Ubuntu a good place to start? Does Edubuntu offer any advantages?<br><br>
Q3: Grub or Lilo? - I need to maintain a Windoze setup on my desktop.<br><br>
Q4: I plan to access Linux from my Windoze laptop across a wireless network (so keeping the noisy desktop shut away!). VNC or an X-client on Windoze?<br><br>
Q5: Can Linux act as a server to a network of Windoze workstations which use a server-based domain to manage logins? Sorry, I've not yet learned all the technical terms for this sort of thing not having much network experience. I think I had file and print sharing going the last time I tried Linux
<br><br>
Q6: Any Moodlers out there?<br><br>
I'd appreciate any comments you may have!<br><br>
Thanks, Andy.<br><br>
