If you had, say, a Samba file server on Linux, and you installed a program, say, MS Office, on one machine, but set it to install on a network drive on the Linux machine, you'd have the software installed on the server, but be running it from the workstation. Now, if you were to install the same program on all your computers, but install the files to the same place, all on the Linux server, you'd have 1 copy of the program on the server (over-written 5 times, mind you...) but all the correct registry entries, etc. would all be on the local machines. |
