There is also some code IIRC that let's you use ssh to open a tunnel to another box to execute commands in some supported application there. It has been a while, but I believe they also used Matlab. > Though I suppose this has some minimal use on its own as being a way > to call proprietary software not available natively on solaris while > still using native applications from sage (OpenGL visualization comes > to mind), I think a more common benefit would be in having a solaris > zone that is used to house a sage notebook server while not having to > sacrifice the ability to call proprietary software (from a lx zone). I am very interested in providing a Solaris Zone with Sage since isolating the notebook into its own little corner of the system is an excellent idea. If you have some expertise in that area I would be glad if you could help out there. > Once I move in to my new apartment and have access to my sever again I > will try it out ... it doesn't look like it will be long before the > solaris port is adequate ;) Yeah, I am really hoping that William and I will sit down this Thursday and/or Friday and spend some time nailing down some of those pesky Solaris bugs. It looks like we now have a solution to a sympow problem, so hopefully another bug just bit the dust.
