I'm the sysadmin for the machine, but won't be eternally. The lab is a Win2K based one (ugh) and the only few UNIX clueful users will leave before I do.

Yes, I agree with Christian. I believe dpkg-divert can be used to divert the related conffiles, and there aren't too many that need to be locked. But, different people would have different views on this. Another option is to disallow migration as the default. That is, running mosctl bring && mosctl lstay && mosctl -block && mosctl nomfs in /etc/init.d/mosix. Probably, /etc/default/mosix can be used to set the intended defaults, then. So, a user wanting to allow her processes to migrate would enable process migration for her shell process, which would allow children to be migrated out then, or use mosrun etc.. I'm sure various other methods can be used. If the mosctl method sounds good, I'll put it in.. Let me know.. viral -- "Live for today, gone tomorrow, that's me, HaHaHaaaaaa!"
