Thanks Gary The question is this -- "Can a Pentium server at 1.5 GhZ with 4 GB RAM running a proprietary Linux OS service 125 PCs on a LAN during an a competitive exam and *very reliably* record every keystroke and mouse click of each of these 125 examinees. The same server is simultaneously also disiplaying a unique exam on screen for each examinee where the sequence of questions is jumbled and the answer options are jumbled for each examinee.
I am being flooded just now with complaints of a recent very prestigious online exam in India where candidates all over India are saying their answers have not been properly recorded. This is not the first time similar complaints have come for this exam. Also these local servers usually run Windows, but for this exam the exam vendor loads his proprietary Linux OS as a dual boot along with his own application software.
