We're wanting to re-do and increase performance in a few lab setups and thought openmosix would be a great option. If there aren't tools available for a 2.6 kernel, we may have to keep using the current setup: NIS / NFS / autofs / afs setup with users loging in to specific machines. One group tried condor, but really isn't happy with it at all. Any suggestions? Ted Rodgers Robotics, CMU -- gentoo-cluster@gentoo.org mailing list
