From: balou on 17 Feb 2010 02:46 Hi, I search for a program to use for a cybercaf�. It's for cybercafes and libraries. The things that must do is the following : - The users must prepaid for internet and other use. - you must can reserving the internet station - the system must logout or block everything after the time is gone, this must be automatic. - It don't need to be free, I'm able to pay for these program. In windows I use truecafe (I paid for) : http://www.truecafe.net/ But I want to work with linux in the future and they don't have linux programs. I libraries the users don't need to pay for the internet but only has 1/2 hour use time. With tuecafe I can do that. When the users can online book the use time it will bee verry good. I use thin clients, it must be thin client compatible. Thanks for the help ! Kind Regards Balou

Use a live CD or DVD, and be prepared to update them every few months to get the latest up-to-date Flash and MP3 players, and reboot the machines after every user logs out. I assume you've also thought about physical security, to lock the BIOS and keep people from plugging in flash drives and booting from that.

How does this "multiseat computer" work? Multiple video cards and keyboards, or are the other workstations "thin clients" of some sort?

Well multiseatcomputer is one computer with 3 multiple videocards , 6 usb keyboards an 6 usb mice. You can work with al the seats like normal computers. It's not thin clients but normally when a program is compatible when thin clients it also works with multiseatcomputers. |
