Thinstation

Thinstation

Thinstation is a thin client Linux distribution that makes a PC a full-featured thin client supporting all major connectivity protocols: Citrix ICA, NoMachine NX, 2X ThinClient, Microsoft Terminal Services (RDP), Cendio ThinLinc, Tarantella, X, telnet, tn5250, VMS term and SSH.

One can compile Thinstation from sources (Linux box required) or download prebuilt binary to use. The binary size is about 8 Mb, which means it is possible to utilize a legacy PC with 8-16 Mb of RAM to boot it in a thin client scenario.

As of August 2008, the latest stable release is number 2.2.2
