Yes. Get this script: http://www.vilain.net/vserver/unify-dirs You'll probably also want to unify /lib (to get the C library etc) and possibly even /bin, /dev, whatever. You'll need this module (not on CPAN, sorry) to run it: http://vilain.net/pm/ReadDir-0.02.tar.gz The other modules it uses (Digest::SHA1, Pod::Constants, Text::Wrap, Term::ReadKey) are all on CPAN -- Sam Vilain, [EMAIL PROTECTED] A problem adequately stated is a problem well on its way to being solved. -- Richard Buckminster Fuller
