In the interest of posing useless questions that won't ever affect me, 
are there any standardized scripts to model off of?  I know there are 
variations because of various servers, but the differences would be 
tweaks rather than writing something from scratch.  I assume that 
something like this exists somewhere, but perhaps it should be FAQ 
material.

BTW, where is the most recent FAQ?  The link to the copy on Cray-ymp is, 
as expected, no loger valid, but it's the only one on www.netbsd.org and 
there are about 14 "info" links on puma, none of which get me to anything 
that resembles a FAQ list.

Just curious,
