Re: [Xen-users] Thin Clients

I'm afraid XenDesktop is a proprietary product from Citrix.

I'm not sure if there are any open source VDI solutions based on Xen.

I kind of half created one about a year ago. I must finish it :)

As in thin computing over the cloud. Hosting a desktop server on Xen which can be access over the net but by using a thin client rather than a PC. For example, I have ESX servers running win guests on them which users access using a remote access tool. I also have NX where users use the NX client to access their desktop.

I was looking at XenDesktop which I am now interested in but wondered if the Xen project has the same capabilities.
