I also have my home dir NFS-mounted on it, and X/GNOME/XEmacs etc etc--which usually isn't running. The upshot is that when I need to hit the road, I just unplug the network cable. When I get on the ferry (1.5 hours to Vancouver :) I just fire up X (mostly for Netscape) on the notebook and keep on going like nothing happened. When I get home, I plug it back into the network and it sits in a secluded corner, while I work on it via a much more comfortable desktop workstation, which can then be running pretty much anything as long as it has a good editor and terminal program, and can mount SMB shares. YMMV, but this sorta thing is just _too_ easy with *nix (well, Linux anyway; I can't see *BSD being any tougher. :) -- +----------------------------------------------------------------+ |Torben Wilson <torben@php.net> Netmill iTech| |http://www.coastnet.com/~torben http://www.netmill.fi| |Ph: 1 250 383-9735 torben@netmill.fi| +----------------------------------------------------------------+
