I once wrote a script that would walk specified directory and do the equiv of an rcsdiff and a timestamp check to report any configuration files that were changed without checking them in. We inflicted that script on a lot of clients. No more "we didn't change that file" whines once we could e-mail them with the evidence :) G'nite.
