Hi everybody, I am trying to make a 'Internet cafe' for my FTB server. Basically it uses the code from http://computercraft.info/wiki/index.php?title=Login_with_Roaming_Profiles however I want a personal disk to be piped to each computer with disk drives attached via Red power tubes. Can anyone help me?

You might need to explain what the problem is a little more clearly. Cause what you describe doesn't actually sound like a programming problem.

Basically I am going to have a computer that opens some pistons when a server-verified password+username so a player can o inside and use the PC. The thing is is that using red power I want the controller PC to be able to insert a disk into the back of the PC. The disk will be the same for that user on any of the PCs there. I want to know how to send out the disk

So…like using some kind of block that contains inventory and can send the appropriate disk into the system, then receive it again and file it once the user is done? I suppose that's possible, but wouldn't it be much faster and more secure to have a file server set up using rednet? The files of the user could be stored on one computer, and only available to the computer where the user logged in. This would also be a programming problem rather than a build problem, so you might get some responses.

just send the files over rednet:
