Hi all World Computer Exchange(http://www.worldcomputerexchange.org) exports computers to partners in developing countries who place them in schools.
We set all our computers as stand-alones running Ubuntu 12.04 with the LXDE desktop, Edubuntu-desktop package, other software and an archive of files for the classroom. The final item is currently about 12 gigs of open source educational PDFs, videos and interactive content for grades K-12. The archive is indexed thru a set of simple HTML pages. We do this because many of the classrooms who receive our computers have very poor internet connections(ex:20 PCs on one 56K modem line) We have stayed away from Edubuntu LTSP because many of the schools lack tech support Here is the question: Our Content Archive has the potential to be 30gigs which is way too much to install on stand-alone computers. We would like to send a server for each classroom with the archive on it. We need server solution that is simple and foolproof. Any suggestions?
