I just set up a standalone CPU server here at home, so I just run drawterm to there, import my directory from the distant server, and play away. I guess if I had this new CPU/auth server boot from the distant server's fossil, I wouldn't even have to import my home dir. What would I do to have the server automatically boot from a remote fileserver? (I'd like to unplug the monitor and keyboard, so automatic is important) Thanks John
