super -- all those scripts are pretty easy and simple -- no problem to delete

i will send you url.
I think the crucial part is the format and place and variables in config file.
everything other could/should be changed.
if there is anyone other interested, please tell me on #knoppix or mail me --
you will get r/w access.
