What about the synchronization and predictability aspect, which I mentioned in my 1st entry in this thread? I want _all_ my machines to do a full fsck when I turn them on the 1st of a month. (if a month seems too long, substitute "Sunday"). Anything else is madness. And yeah, desktops matter to me. -- Please don't Cc: me privately on mailing lists and Usenet, if you also post the followup to the list or newsgroup.
