I've been administering UNIX systems for years now but I've never found something like (for tcsh) 'setenv AUDIO remotehost' (without the quotes). The underlying idea was to play a CD on a remote CDROM drive and hear it on another machine... weird, eh?! :-)

Sun and HP workstations have remote audio capabilities. I believe ESD (Enlightenment Sound Daemon?) (I think is the esound package in SuSE) is capable of doing the same thing, although I haven't tried it. I don't know about CD playing, though, since the ouput of a cdrom is cabled directly to the sound card, so there may not be any processing, just amplification. -- Rafael Herrera Laboratory for Computational Neuroscience University of Pittsburgh http://www.neuronet.pitt.edu/~raffo -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/support/faq
