Alright while I'm waiting on machines to get here I might as well try to learn wtf I'm doing:


My everyday use machine is a windows 7 (willing to change os if necessary) box which would probably work fine as a server to the two machines coming but then I suppose I'd have to have all three of them on 24/7.

So far my idea is to run the new new machines right to the router and then just plug in a monitor (low power video cards on the way), keyboard and mouse to check in on them now and then. There are probably a half dozen problems with this I'm not thinking of at the moment though and it makes things kind of a pain to check in on.


If there's a way to kind of monitor and control the two new machines from my every day desktop without requiring me to leave the desktop on 24/7 I suppose that would be the best solution, but I'm not really aware of anything like that.

Any help untangling all of this would be appreciated.

As a separate issue if you're going caseless I gather any non-conductive material is an okay base, correct? ie plexiglass, wood, acryllic, etc

Are you talking about networking in general or monitoring F@H clients on a home network?
 
oop, sorry. For clarification it would be monitoring the F@H clients on the home network.
 
use HFM to monitor the progress....

as for remote temp monitoring, i havent figured that out, very interested in it though
 
ah great, that's easy enough. I didn't realize HFM could pick up the clients of other systems on your home network. Thanks.
