Yeah, I know there's nothing to it, but I'd like to be able to delegate the task to someone who won't require a ton of training. I don't remember where I got the script, but I think I still have the distribution archive with all the docs, such as they are. If anyone wants it, I'll put it up for ftp someplace. Just let me know. -- bmk@dtr.com | bmk@teleport.com | bmk@atlas.com | finger -l bmk@teleport.com for PGP public key. http://www.teleport.com/~bmk/
