\_ (Vitesse, a semiconductor company in Camarillo, CA, had some SUN \_ Diskless clients that swapped over NFS for a while.. they created lots \_ of congestion on their network) My fav was in college watching a TA say "ok everyone, now type 'startx' at the prompt" and the subsequent death of the network as two NFS servers tried to handle shipping the X binaries down the suddenly congested pipe to 20+ diskless SUN workstations. Fortunately, I was just passing by so could escape outside before saying rude things. :-) Oh, and did I mention that the boxes were thinneted? David
