I am thinking of netbooting as what a diskless client would do. If this is indeed correct, that is unfortunate, because I am going to have to go with OpenBSD, as I am tired of Solaris where everything is twice as difficult as it needs to be. Any insight inot this would be greatly appreciated. thanks, Bob
