Can I leave my laptop info in the host.tab of the library server, even
when the laptop is not connected?

A separate question: What type of system is best to install on a laptop
(access server, library access ...) if I want to be able to fetch
resources on the lon-capa network, as well as author resources? (Presently,
my laptop is a library access server.)

Lars.
