Ermm. Chad mentioned that we might synctree out of AFS to
make sure updates to AFS happen.s. This sounds rather dangerous to me,
since if AFS goes down, do we not lose all the files being sync'd?
(I.e. sendmail.cf, /etc/passwd or anything else..?) This will affect those
machines in a very adverse manner. (I assume by synctree you basically
mean make a symlink to afsland for those files?) anyway.. If I misunderstand,
please explain..
