Thanks for the advice. Still playing around with it. It seem i may need that centralized control which says to me there most likely isnt a free alternative for EXACTLY what I want to do. However I see no reason not to put vmware to use virtualizing a few crucial components of the network. Thanks again!

Hello all, After watching the episodes on proxmox a while back I got an idea for a computer lab at my university. We have old dell computers we use in a Linux class that teaches basic configuration and administration of Linux boxes. I'd like to be able to use a pretty good server we have and virtualize the entire lab. This would let there be multiple sections of the class taught instead of one section a semester. I'd like to be able to have the student machines be able to remote in to the virtual machines hosted on the server. Proxmox doesn't seem to support this and Citrix Xen and VMware vSphere have pretty pricey solutions to this. I was wondering if you guys had heard any open source solutions to my project. I've been searching for a while now I just don't know where to look next. Thanks for sticking through the long read!
