Dear Brian,
I think you should use your higher spec machine as a server, with terminal
services (I think you need Advanced Server) support. Install
"Sharedware"
devices in your other pcs. You can download an applica driver for terminal
services client. You can install four "Sharedware" devices per
machine on a
9x/ME os. The "Sharedware" system allows you t  use more than one
monitor,
keyboard, mouse and speaker combination per machine, allowing up to 5
consoles on one machine. You would use the applica driver with TSC t  use
streaming sessions off the server. You would end up with ten cli.s off one
server and tw  stations.

Yours Sincerely,

Lee Edward Causier,
Enzyme Systems.

Thanks Lee,

What I was actually looking for was advice as t  what PC t  use where i.e.
would it be better t  use the highest spec as the server at Node 0 (HV
controller, CCTV, Web Server etc. etc)or use the lower spec as the server
and use the higher spec as my workstation, that sort of thing.

I will eventually chase the cable's int  the walls but I think I might be
able t  run the cables down disused chimney's, not sure of the legalities
or
wise ness of this ploy but the chimney's are disused including next doors.
I
have an end of terrace house with a corridor leading t  the rear of my
property between my house and next door, so the chimney's are separate
although I suspect they join on the roof t  the pot's?

In the loft conversion I have a strange brick tunnel going down a way (not
sure how far as rubble in it that I cannot reach(yet)) built ont  the
chimney stack, anyone know what this is for? seems might be a good ready
built cable duct?

Thanks anyway.

B.
