We have done that for years, and this has given us a very stable<br>
environment. Connecting to our ThinLinc setup, only the desktop runs on<br>
the TL servers - all applications get started on a cluster of Linux nodes,<br>
with the display set to the user's TL session. And the OS on the cluster<br>
nodes doesn't need to be same as the one on the TL nodes. In fact, for<br>
many years (until last year) our TL nodes were based on Solaris SPARC,<br>
since we also had a tight integration with our Sun Ray setup - but all<br>
user applications have been running on different flavours of Linux since<br>
at least 2007.<br>
<br>
Other advantages are, that you can separate system maintenance that way,<br>
and you keep the load on the TL servers to a minimum. And if a user's<br>
application slows down or crashes a node, it doesn't take down the desktop<br>
sessions of N other users.<br>
