I am quite interested in trying that out. I have RedHat 6.0 installed on a
PIII-450. How would I set this up just for testing. I have a variety of
other PC's I can try it out on. I just don't know how to configure it.
Also, is it possible to run the XServer on one box and the Font Server on
another? Is there any performance gained from such a setup?
Regards,
Rob
