Hi, I'm considering different solutions on a network thats basicly 10 mb w/ P166 pc's. There are a total of 20 machines on the network but the changeover process will start slowly w/ 3 - 5 machines going over. The network is hetrogenous w/ both macs & nt clients from before.
I therefore have a few questions: 1. Running kdm/gdm locally. Why would I whant this? Would this reduce or increase network load. Also, if I run kdm localy, then authentication would happen localy right? So I would have to set up pam-ldap or pamkrb5 to run from the local machine, right? Also, the filesystem the client will see is the local one? 2. I think I've seen this question before, but here goes: Is there a way to place global icons on the userers desktops (either gdm or kdm) and still letting the user decide what other items he/she wants on the desktop? 3. For thos who's got experience w/ mosix. How does mosix compare to using local apps to share out network load and use the local cpu power of the clients? 4. If root is mounted rw, is it still possible to mount directories on top of root? (i.e. /home /shared etc?) I'm sorry for this long list.
