<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am about to setup a server with two processors
and I have never done so with Linux. Is there anything special that I
need to make sure that they get configured to work or will Linux take care off
all of that automatically? I am going to use RedHat 7.3. Thank
you.</FONT></P>
