i thought about making crontab a wrapper which ssh'd over to a centeral server and envoked crontab. this would be rather straight forward, the only catch would be that your crontab server would need to have what ever tools the users need. to make it transparent to the user you could use ssh's HostbasedAuthentication. then the user wouldn't even realize that they're on another system.

That would work for us, as all of the programs and data live in AFS or NFS space. Nothing is stored locally on any server.

I was thinking about doing something that would put a .crontab file in their home dir and then the crontab server would pick it up.

Thanks
