Choosing A Webhost:
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation. more...

Maybe you have two systems with the same IP address (192.168.0.1).  Maybe
you have a firewall or packet filter set up.

Thank you. Yes, that was it.

Now I unplugged the cable from eth0 (the outwards-pointing NIC). So right now this network has only two computers:

Edubuntu server -> eth0 -> thin client


Now, when I boot the client, it does get past the "Loading 192..." stage. And indeed, I get a few pages worth of boot up info. It's still not booting completely, but I'll post the errors on another thread because it's a different issue.

Thank you so much for your help. I probably would have spent days before thinking of that.

Cheers,
Daniel.
