(October 14, 1999) "Sir Unix Holmes Does A Round-Robin"
Use the space in the table cells to jot down what you see. After you have made the
rounds, synthesize the evidence you have gathered, and we'll discuss what it all might
mean.
We have four machines:
| Cart |
Solaris 7 connected to the shell server, which servers
Solaris 7 |
| Compaq |

servers Solaris; this laptop also runs MKS Toolkit, a virtual Unix environment |
| Flag |
Windows NT laptop running MKS Toolkit, a virtual Unix
environment |
| Penguin |

is this so?
