Pradeep, I think you're doing this the hard way. If you set up a proxy server on your LTSP server (Squid, for example), then you can tell the local browsers not to save anything without a slowdown. This can be faster than the way you're suggesting, since repeatedly pulling the same picture over the LAN from Squid won't load the workstation as much as swap thrashing over the LAN will. -- David Johnston <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Little Bald Consulting, LLC ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.
