Hello,

Novice question !!!

Please teach me how to have a node-specific file on a diskless Sun ?
I am porting a software product from HP to Sun. HP has a "cluster"
to support diskless nodes. They have Context Dependent File (CDF)
to have a node-specific file for each node. How does Sun support
such an idea ?  It seems to me that Sun makes heavy use of NFS and
symbolic links. What man pages do I need to read ?

Thanks in advance,

Masa
