First post to the correct mailing list. That would most likely be: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Now, clusters are useless for normal users (workstation, server, ...). Anyway it's still fun to try it even if it's not useful :) You can start by reading this http://www.offmyserver.com/cgi-bin/store/news/techtv_090303.html?id=7j3YLnbS Older systems may also be used for clusters though it won't help much to see a difference (as far as older means p90). A cluster is used for intensive computing things such as Graphic rendering. Regards -Pierrick Brossin http://www.swissgeeks.com
