I am tasked with bringing up a Wyse Winterm 1200LE donated to a
school. I updated the firmware and although the docs say it can
support the VNC protocol, I can't seem to determine a way to attach it
to a VNC server 3.3.7.

The goal is to use the device as a public web browsing / OWA station,
and although we have a dusty old NT 4.0 (ick) Terminal Server, the
licenses are boogered (nobody who set up the machine is still at the
school!).

So as a test, I was trying to get it to talk to a VNC server, without
success.

So I apparently need ICA or RDP. What is the cheapest way to get this
1200LE turned into a Web Browsing Appliance? Double bonus if I can
play streamed audio! (looks bleak, though.)

Also, I am new to terminal services, and WinFrame, and PN Lite and all
that... I am wandering around trying to find out the least expesnive
way to install a small number of terminal services 'servers.' VNC is
the least least expensive, can I do that? If not, assuming I cannot
resurrect the NT 4.0 licenses, what is the best/most cost effective
way to go (assuming the rest of the machines are Win2k Server).

Cheers
