I'm writing a perl daemon to do two things: back up important files on
multiple boxen so if one gets taken out another will survive, and sync
files in users directory from a main server -- i.e. I want to be able to
do something like $ ./distribute.pl --file and have it sent to all
boxen's ~/distributed/ directory.
