Comment:
changes due to renaming Thin-Client-Server to LTSP-Server (see #588510)

  The purpose of the different profiles is explained in the [[DebianEdu/Documentation/Stretch/Architecture|network architecture]] chapter.
  
   * The computers running Debian Edu / Skolelinux must have either 32 bit (Debian architecture 'i386', oldest supported processors are 686 class ones) or 64 bit (Debian architecture 'amd64') x86 processors.
-  * At least 2 GiB RAM for 30 clients and 4 GiB RAM for 50-60 clients are recommended for the main and thin client server profiles. 
+  * At least 2 GiB RAM for 30 clients and 4 GiB RAM for 50-60 clients are recommended for the main and LTSP server profiles. 
   * Thin clients with only 64 MiB RAM and 133 MHz on 32 bit processors are possible, though 256 MiB RAM or more and faster processors are recommended.
     * Swapping over the network is automatically enabled for LTSP clients; the swap size is 512 MiB, and if you need more you can tune this by editing {{{/etc/ltsp/nbdswapd.conf}}} on tjener to set the SIZE variable.
     * If your diskless workstations have hard drives, it is recommended to use them for swap as it is a lot faster than network swapping.

      *On workstations with little RAM the spell checker might cause !LibreOffice to hang if the swap space is also too small. If this happens frequently the spell checker can be disabled by system administrators.
  
   * The minimum disk space requirements depend on the profile which is installed:
-    * main server + thin client server: 70 GiB. As usual with disk space on a main server, "the bigger the better".
+    * combined main server + LTSP server: 70 GiB. As usual with disk space on a main server, "the bigger the better".
-    * thin client server: 50 GiB.
+    * LTSP server: 50 GiB.
     * workstation or standalone: 30 GiB. 
  
-  * Thin client servers need two network cards when using the default network architecture:
+  * LTSP servers need two network cards when using the default network architecture:
    * eth0 is connected to the main network (10.0.0.0/8),
    * eth1 is used for serving LTSP clients (192.168.0.0/24 as default, but [[DebianEdu/Documentation/Stretch/HowTo/NetworkClients#Use_a_different_LTSP_client_network|others are possible]].
