[Sheflug] headless

["Ian Wright" <nospam [at] iw63.freeserve.co.uk>]

Hi,

I have a box running a RH6.2 (-ish) workstation on which I have some robotic
machine control software. I would like to alter this box to 'headless'
operation - no screen, no keyboard and only contacted via ssh on the
network. How would I alter things to give me this facility? Like, how do I
stop it wanting a password when it starts up, can I just remove the monitor
and keyboard without it crashing with errors, how do I tell it to recognise
me over the network using ssh? etc. Because it has taken a long time to get
the programs set up right, I'd rather not have to start afresh and reload
everything (I'd be bound to forget something vital!!!).  Thanks,

Ian
