Dear Petter, dear list,

thanks for publishing a really nice script. I considered it useful for 
shared administration - and dared publish it also on the German liste. 
There, we had some feedback which I like to summerize:

- it is a good idea to keep track of /etc in a cvs (or likewise)
- rollback is out of question because cvs destroys files' rights
- another problem of cvs is that is doesn't support links
  ("find /etc/ -type l|wc -l" returns a number of approx. 600)

A copy of your script is available as wiki page, so everybody here can 
contribute to it (I hope you don't mind):
