Hi Scot,
Only had a cursory glance at the document.
In section "Some background on X."
Maybe a cross reference to LBX HOWTO, DXPC, SSH Tunelling X. Insecurity of
X?
In section "Getting to X from the outside."
Cross reference to GDM or remove that section and refer entirely to XDM
related HOWTOs?
In section "Linux Terminals"
Reference to PXE, NFS-Root HOWTO?
In section "X Server Programs"
Free X server for Windows, Cygwin? (yes, I know that development is rather
non-existent)
In section "Shared Resources"
Create ISO file for CD. Mount to loopback device. Export via NFS. Maybe take
into account general system administration. More cross-referencing....
sigh....
References to clustering?
Well written and doesn't put people to sleep. Congratulations =)
Binh.
