RxLinux, PlumpOS, K12LTSP, LTSP and many others. |
| openMosix is a product developed by the users themselves
so it's more close to the user by definition. |

in the user land tools via multicast messaging. |
| Aliases for hosts with multiple
interfaces. |
| Basic routing available (in the rare case where true
multicast routing is undesirable). |

a given process can migrate. |
