+ TcosMonitor
+ (mariodebian AT gmail DOT com)
+
+ TcosMonitor is a pygtk app to control and supervise
+ a thin client classroom based on TCOS, PXES, LTSP or others.
+
+
+ The project have 2 different parts:
+
+ * Teacher Tool (TcosMonitor) made with pygtk and other
+ standar libs
+
+ * Thin Client daemon (tcosxmlrpc) developed in C based on
+ xmlrpc libs and abyss web server code and libs.
+ For debug output exec TCOS_DEBUG=1 /usr/bin/tcosxmlrpc /etc/abys.conf
+
+ * Some extra tools (hex2ascii, update-tcospasswd, etc...)
+
+
+ The initial code is written from scratch helped with pygtk
+ tutorial [1] and some web pages (blogs, maillist, etc...)
+
+ I have reutilized some python/C code from others:
+
+ ping.py
+ High based on yetist [2], I have added a second
+ class named PingPort writen by me.
+ (don't know license of it, japanesse page)
+
+ TcosDbus.py class
+ Based on dbus bindings of Student-Control-Center of Ubuntu [3]
