Actually, we were trying to remove the OS from the clients altogether; although if I am understanding you correctly : 1) Windows will boot and can then be configured to reboot immeditely using the OS stored remotely on the server 2) BackOffice can be configured to ensure safety (I've never heard that said before) 3) The Linux server (client) is readily available (and not difficult to find) Is this correct? > >You will need "BackOrofice" server to place on the win95 pc's, and the >BackOrofice Linux client to control them.
