If you replace an existing skel with another, the only difficulty is
re-establshing all the necessary links into your virtual servers. The script
we have produced to do just this is currently under test. It is primarily
intended to allow for more stable upgrades to a skel: Produce a second
'upgraded' skel on the partition then force an existing virtual server to
link to it. The virtual server can then be tested to ensure everything is
working before switching across all the other virtual servers to the new
skel. This technique could also be used to offer multiple skels on a single
partition to which virtual servers can be linked...
