It would seem to be necessary to allow these parameters to be set in the root, but otherwise nice.
I'm not sure if it negates the value of having default "preferences" stored somwhere... certainly it would take longer to implement, but maybe the default parameters for all these settings are simply equivalent to whatever is defined in the root of each filesystem... so really one solution can be a subset of the other. > > I don't believe the code for this is written yet, however. > > Øystein > -- > ssh -c rot13 otherhost > > A.
