Oh SNAP!
A server and client for what? A game, a time monitor, network sharing, smoke break allowances? Details sport and as always, spelling and punctuation is appreciated but not necessary.

A possible technique would be this: http://www.ltsp.org/ . It's more less designed for your kind of scenario.
