Actually openmosix would _definately_ provide help in that department. I believe you can just mount the srver root as the node root and have all the clients lok _exactly_ like the server with no fancy work needed. As to openmosix you really need to look in to it. JohnHopkins Universty used it together mpi/pvm for the human genome project
