Indeed. I meant the post more as a troll to see what sort of issues would
be raised. So far I haven't seen anything that, at least at first glance,
couldn't be done with ssh and a symbolic link. Is the issue:
1) Users who can't or won't change?
I have to boot some silly boxes running
vxworks. It uses rsh and similar
to log onto the boot server to fetch files it needs. Please don't
remove rsh ;)
