We are using Debian for four years now, on all of our servers, desktops 
and laptops. These are around fifty devices, used day by day by our 
students.

Our main educational goal, of course, is to show the students, what a 
community of freely connected volunteers is able to do. Secondly, they 
shall learn to deal with an alternative usability concept which is at 
least as easy to deal with as commercial standards. So we have Gnome on 
all of our clients. And last but not least we use Debian because of its 
reliability.

On our servers, OpenLDAP is running for the administration of devices 
and users. A central part of the organisation of everyday learning is 
our internal website. And, up to now, the network is organised by Samba, 
to ensure seamless collaboration with another department.
