I am sorry but could you list them please?

On the server or on your desktop? > And honestly, why do I need to do something remotely when I should be able to do it on the host? > I have the feeling that we're at slight odds semantically. What do you actually mean with local/remote? One parsing of your email seems to suggest that you're set with a keyboard and mouse plugged into your server, rather than connected via SSH, perhaps clarify with desktop/local server/remote server? regards, -- Roeland M Mertens Principal Systems Engineer Daisy Group PLC _______________________________________________ CentOS-virt mailing list CentOS-virt@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-virt
