terminal server hardware advice needed


hi,

i want to build a office lan (terminal server). mostly our work involves using a little of internet (firefox) and lots of office documents (openoffice - word, excel) printing and other stuff.

we already have around 6 celeron pcs as thin client

we need to buy a server.

what hardware do you guys recommend ? do we need a very fast processor or lots of ram, is raid setup needed ?

money is a issue, budget is very limited its not possible get a top of the line system.

we are already using a 10MBPS hub as our network.

thanks fellows !

This site may have some suggestions

http://www.ltsp.org/

LTSP is an add-on package for Linux that allows you to connect lots of low-powered thin client terminals to a Linux server. Applications typically run on the server, and accept input and display their output on the thin client display.
