Hi all,,,

I've been beating my head against the wall here.

Here's what I'm trying to do.

Computer A is the faster with better video. Computer B has the larger HD. I want to be on computer A and run a program that is stored on B's HD. The program should run on A not B.

I've been messing with NFS, but it will not allow me to do this. I can only read / write on NFS.

Any ideas for me?

NFS-mount on computer A the harddisk on computer B and that's it... you should be able to execute programs/utils/tools/whatever. Another workaround would be to login on computer A, telnet/rsh/rlogin/ssh to computer B, send the display to computer A and execute your programs/utils/tools/whatever... For (k)sh: DISPLAY=computer-A:0.0 ; export DISPLAY For (t)csh: setenv DISPLAY computer-A:0.0 For bash/zsh: export DISPLAY=computer-A:0.0 HTH, Martin
