[IPython-User] notebooks and clusters

[Darren Govoni]

Ok, thanks.

What I want to do is run remote engines manually and have them connect
to the notebooks controller.

I assume the notebook as a config file it creates that I can use on
remote servers for engines to connect?

Or does it just use the default config location (e.g. user directory)?
