I'm not too familiar with OS X Server. Wondering if it's possible to set up iMacs in a dumb terminal like setup with an OS X Server? Wanting the iMacs to net boot off the server and have the user accounts and home directories to be on the server. Is this possible with OS X Server?

Thanks.

Yes that is all possible. I am currently setting up Open Directory accounts for all my users. The user accounts and home folders are is stored on an xServe. I have not tried the netboot option as yet though.
