hi ya peter
since this one is fun ....
a) ... get a UPS or a bigger one... put all your PCs,hugs, gateway,
router only on the UPS..
do NOT put the monitors/printers on UPS
login normally... go to the right window/door....
for spawn logins... enter "console.sh &"
b) since you have 10-12 consoles... i assume you mean X11 xterms
vi console.sh
#
# login into all the machines you want
#
xterm -geom XxY+xsize+ysize -name servername.com \
-exec ssh -l user servername.com &
# repeat and change x/y-size coordinates for each xterm
#
# end of logins
i never did get -exec or equivalent running right ... so at least i get
all the xterms positioned correctly... by running the script...
i too run about 15-20 consoles ( xterms ) in multiple windows/doors...
- but if the server dies... i want it to stay down till i
can look atit
c ya
