Hi *,
A message from Jan Just Keijser (who joined the PDP group about a month ago if you haven't met him yet): you can now access the grid services from your "normal" desktop machines, i.e. you don't have to log into ui03.
A footnote (hmm, headnote?) to the included message: the minimum requirement for running this UI-on-a-desktop is that your desktop is running Scientific Linux 3, RedHat Enterprise Linux 3 or CentOS 3.x; RedHat 7.3 systems are NOT supported.
This means that you can't run it from 'login.nikhef.nl':
eomer:~> cat /etc/issue Red Hat Linux release 7.3 (Valhalla) Kernel \r on an \m
if 'cat /etc/issue' on your machine says something like
Scientific Linux CERN Release 3.0.5 (SL)
then you are OK.
