Seriously, I remember CMU has something built around a derivative of =
LDAP that would store more general preference information. Last I heard =
they only used it for things like Browser Bookmarks, but it seems like a =
general "Preference Server" would be feasible...

Has anybody figured out a good way to handle this...
One of my biggest pet peeves as a computer user is that I've got several
machines, each with their own )*&*(&^! copies of config files and the
like.
My two primary machines are a Solaris box at work and a linux laptop...
Each has its own .fvwm2rc, .emacs, .mailrc and on and on. Whenever I
change one, I forget to change the other.
Having to manually sync things, when I notice a difference, sucks. :-)
Anybody got any strategies for dealing with this kind of thing?
John
