Instead of buying a commercian "muscle box" I think it would be more fun to instead link two pc's to serve one user, namely, myself. Thinking about this, I wanted to contact the group. Has anybody else done this? I would like to know so I could just follow in the footsteps of somebody who has experience. I would really like to have the repetitive and daemon like jobs run on the computer without the keyboard/screen/mouse. I wonder though because in debian exim and cron are in the "base system." Can a Debian system be run without these? Email in particular, is there a setting where I can tell the "lighter" system to use the SMTP server of the "heavier" system as a default, or do I need to run a lighter SMTP daemon or do I need to program exim for this somehow? Can simpler and less secure things like telnet be configured to work only within the LAN? I know how to invoke SSH but is seems overkill for logging into a box next to the "lighter" box. any thoughts? Thanks, --- Scotty
