I have a debian machine acting as my home lan server/firewall/gateway. Initially I ran it without keyboard mouse or monitor without change and it worked fine. These days it has an old keyboard connected but still no monitor because I found it useful if I have a problem to come along and plug a monitor into the back (it sits next to my desktop machine which does have a monitor and I just switch the cables over) to work on it locally. Normally I just ssh into it - but if I have a serious problem where sshd isn't running then I need to get at it directly. I also have xlibs on this machine so that I can run an xbased editor (fte) through the ssh channel that I have created. This took a bit of setting up to allow x-forwarding - but other than that everything has more or less worked straight from the box. - -- Alan - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.chandlerfamily.org.uk -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE8OBxZ1mf3M5ZDr2kRAow4AKCE22zWVbGrCwfTB0ggVs1EsIfh/QCgmcgV Z9xHUWzLkhZKA8rPFcKztIA= =tlAt -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
