Cartman
....is the main "Workstation" and is an old Compaq 200MHz Pentium 1/MMX.
It has 2 Hard Drives, the main one is 2GB and the secondary one is 500MB. The main drive is partitioned as .....(to follow) and the small drive is mounted as /home.
Cartman has a CDROM drive and a Tape drive for backups, Soundblaster 16, but only 1MB on board video so only 1152x864x256 at the moment, but I have an extra 1MB Video RAM on the way.
It does have 96MB RAM though so doesn't have too much trouble with swapping to disk.
The main use is as a general purpose computer, email, web browsing, news etc.
I do Seti@Home and this link will show you my current Statistics. Cartman take around 40 hours per Work Unit.
This box is also as the access point to the other Linux machines of the internal LAN.
All the Linux boxes on the LAN use OpenSSH (although they do have telnet servers "protected" by tcpd) and are all configured from SSH sessions on Cartman.
They do run Webmin but mostly I do everything longhand (using vi).
Kenny also runs N-Top in Webserver mode which I access from Cartman. The only stable version I could find was this Red Hat RPM of version 1.1
Cartman has an FTP server running (from tcpd) to allow easy access to the cdrom from the other boxes when updating software etc.
The LAN uses an HP500 attached to Cartman as its network printer - via "lpd".
Remote X Applications
Cartman is the only box with a monitor and keyboard permanently attached but the (currently) 2 Servers will run a few X-applications (xload, Xbiff and Xosview) and display them on Cartman's Xserver. They even do this by tunneling the X11 connection over SSH.
In the screenshot you can see the 2 remote Xloads for Kenny and Kyle.
