This series of articles covers the development of a Linux-based server that supports a number of workstations running MS Windows in the computer laboratory of a 55+ RV Resort in Mesa, Arizona.

Our facility protects the local machines from inexperienced and/or inept users, but it also offers sophisticated services for the user that needs them.
