He likes to play flash and javascript games, and I was concerned that the pentium 120 would make that unplesent, but It probaly wouldn't be too much better over ethernet, I've used VNC over ethernet before, and it's a bit of a pain, but perhaps that's just an issue with VNC. > What you could do if you wanted easy administration is boot him off a > floppy distribution, or maybe even put a restricted install on a small > harddrive, and nfs mount the home directories from another server. > > 10mbit should also be more than fine for nfs'ing abiword files over :) I was thinking of just seting up debian or some othe distro with a thin installer and not letting him have root ( at least not at first ) I also need a way to log his internet use, I've already got squid installed on my gateway, can it be setup to log URLs? > > -Gabe > > _______________________________________________ > vox-tech mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech - -- No Microsoft products were used in any way for the creation of this message.
