Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi. Please CC me on any replies. I have been considering diskless FreeBSD X windows PCs for some time. Searching the archives there is some discussion on using FreeBSD as a diskless 'client' mahcine. I have not found anything that answers the question, can FreeBSD serve as the diskless 'server' machine? Is this possible or would I have to have just enough disk space to hold the OS and X then NFS mount the X user's filesystem? Any insight would be appreciated. Cheers...
