a cpu server is a shared service, assumed to be running all the time.
a terminal is a personal machine that is not assumed to be up when
the user is not logged in. you're supposed to be able to turn off your
terminal when you go home.
so the idea of running auth on a personal machine doesn't really make
sense. and although you can run fossil on a terminal, this makes it
harder to just turn the machine off.
so i think the minimum setup (outside of a stand alone laptop) needs
at least a cpu/auth/file server and a terminal, or drawterm.
i did run a standalone terminal+fossil for a while but with no authentication.
not that it mattered -- there was no one to authenticate.
