This chapter describes how to install the ThinLinc software, on ThinLinc Linux Terminal Servers and MS Windows Terminal Servers. To upgrade an existing installation, see Section 3.5, “ Upgrading an Old Installation ”.
If your setup should include a MS Windows Terminal Server, we suggest that you install this machine first. Also, install the WTS Tools package on the Windows server, following the instructions in Section 3.7, “ The ThinLinc WTS Tools Package ”.

Optionally, install ThinLinc Slave machines.
