[clug] Windows live CD

[Tarrant]

First off - I haven't personally heard of a windows live cd... It's too big
I would have thought.

It'd be huge having a vmware session inside a live cd. DVD kind of size at
least I would think.

Live CDs joining the domain? I guess you could make individual live CDs of
windows so each CD had a different machine account. Still I don't see how
it'd work properly

Have you considered using a live CD that has fstab setup to mount network
shares or a script of some sort so when the user clicks it they can login
with their user & pass, this would then mount the appropriate shares with
the correct user accounts? Could that not be sufficient? 

Terminal sessions are an alternative - a server running XP, using something
like VNC even (which happily runs under linux and I'd image a live CD too).
That doesn't really create separate sessions per user though. Terminal
servers can do that though...

Yep that's my two bits

Hello all,

Has been involved with windows xp live cds?
I was hoping to have labs of notebooks that could use windows live cd/dvd to

login to a domain and use office etc....
If there is no such thing i was thinking maybe a linux live cd then running 
a virtual windows XP session over that using vmware or something 
similar.....any ideas?

Very open to ideas at this stage, it has to run Windows XP and it has to 
join a Windows domain.

Thanks all
