Possible usage examples: I was thinking about some networked filesystem to have all boxes in the lab get stuff from central place before the run, instead of copying stuff over. I don't want to consider NFS-based home directory though. Using environment makes it easier for me to avoid need to istall stuff on local disks, at all. -- MST _______________________________________________ openib-general mailing list [email protected] http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general
