A small filing cabinet at the back of the brain creaks open, rust falling from its hinges. A piece of paper catches upon a passing breeze. It is pulled gracefully upwards and as it arcs into the field of vision, it can be seen to read: "rsync-over-ssh" With the right permissions on /usr/src and /usr/obj, a pair of SSHv2 keys and Kens idea about disk slices, we could be onto a winning solution!
