Hello,
we're looking to replace the expensive, virus-ridden, wall mounted "Thin
Client" Windows computers with something cheap and safe. The tasks are:
- IP address over DHCP
- some terminal windows (to telnet into an ancient mainframe)
- web browser
- no network connections accepted from the outside
After power up and afterwards, the predefined applications must come up
automatically. No login should be neccessary, and no user action should be
required to open or move any windows around. Web browser and terminal
windows should restart and connect to predefined addresses if closed by
accident.
As this device will be running 24/7 in an industrial production environment,
worst-case maintenance must be a single power cycle to bring a crashed
system up again.
I'm familiar with running a Debian/dwm desktop system.
Any suggestions on how to go about this?
