hello,
i am playing with a kernel configuration where i have factotum in
/$cputype/bin/auth/factotum instead of /boot.
today this is not possible because auth_getkey(2) requires
/boot/factotum or /factotum to be present. would it be a problem if
auth_getkey tried the usual place too?

9fans,
I have hacked ext2srv to support symlinks so that now, when resolving
a name, a walk will present the client with the file pointed to by the
