How is your /etc distributed? If NFS, the transname patch (IIRC, or maybe
it is even built in now) allows you to name files things like 
/etc/somefile#HOSTNAME=blah# or similar; when blah asks for /etc/somefile,
it gets that file instead of just /etc/somefile.

I've never used it, but Joey Hess mentioned it when I was asking about
NFS root a while back, from memory.
