I know how to install netboot Linux (aka: diskless systems). What I want to do is to have a client machine that boots remotely from a server, but when I get into xdm, then xdm redirects the login process (?) into the server instead of the local machine. So then the client machine becomes an X-terminal. > I'm more interested in Ada; have you read the distributed systems annex? The URL please...
