It works pretty well, with one exception. If I use a FreeBSD system as the Xvnc server then clients to it load *very* slowly. All other cominations are fine, BSD/Linux/Windows as clients are fine, BSD as a client is fine. But access to BSD as a server is incredibly slow. I am wondering if some sysctl needs a tweak ? Any more information I can give, please let me know. They are all on a 100MB Lan going through a switch. FreeBSD is 4.7 Stable as of 2 days ago. It; a 1GHz processor with 512MB, and SCSI disks, so I don;t think that is a bottleneck. Thanks for any help. p.s. To the people I was rude to earlier on this year I apologise, I was in a strange mood. I am a reformed character now. -- Regards Cliff Sarginson The Netherlands [ This mail has been checked as virus-free ] To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
