: I have here simple PCs with no harddrive, they boot as described I am
: not an X expert so I am not quite sure if they are the same like a
: simple X terminal.
Sounds like a PC set up as an X terminal. That's why I mentioned
that if you can add to the software they download, they could
export their session in VNC format.
: What maks me think is that they use xdmcp to connect to the X server
: running on the server 192.168.55.1 Would this make a different to that
: what you wrote???
Not really; what matters here is the X server process, not where any
apps are running. And if you can't get the PC-acting-as-X-terminal
to run some VNC server, getting the screen content by x11vnc -noshm
or by xwd would work the same wherever xdmcp logs them in.
