<humor type="dry"> Are you sure XP's license agreement allows you to do this...? We had a discussion around here last week about how merely using VNC on a system (even another flavor of M$) to access a M$-XP box would violate the XP licensing agreement. Maybe M$ put in a clause to make it illegal to install another OS on the same hardware... ;) </humor> Greg> Greg> Any practical advice (as in "I've done that, watch out for..."
