These functions would also benefit other cluster applications. Seamless process migration could be a great benefit for this area. Next in line would probably be a more appropriate network file system. Can anyone offer the status of any ports or work done to provide these clustering abilities? We had one other besides myself join the #freebsd-cluster IRC channel. Maybe if things pick up around here it will grow one day. ;-) I understand some have restricted or costly Internet access. -- Chuck Rouzer Vital Information Technology, Inc. http://www.vitalit.com http://www.vitalserver.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-cluster" in the body of the message
