Hi,
Sadiq, yes its for Dynamips.
Rob, thanks for the information and I have concluded thats its better to
access the server from within gnome terminal in xWindows, considering the
details you have provided. Because I may have to dig into Bridging which I
have no idea as of now, I mean in Linux.
Regards
Dasarathan
