Hi, Following the recent thread about clusterNFS, I was checking it out. I remember not using it around 10 months while setting up a diskless boot setup, because the debian diskless package was very well integrated, and that I couldn't find clusterNFS through Debian. Anyways, I find that clusterNFS is available as a debian package. If it is packaged fine, would someone be able to upload it into the archives ? There are a few problems that I encounter with the diskless package, and it could be the case that I haven't read the documentation adequately. The way I manage my diskless machines currently is that I use the diskless package to setup the root filesystems for every machine and then NFS mount /usr everywhere. This way all packages installed on the master become available on the clients with minimum pain. However, the problem is the /etc and /var files, which I have to then copy by hand. Am I missing out something here, or there is a better way to do things ? clusterNFS sounds like a good way to overcome these problems. viral
