Sounds great...is it possible to kinda' create a universal shortcut that
would point to the home dir of whoever happens to be logged on to that
session?...I'd like to put a shortcut on everyone's desktop that would
take them to their home dir (via login of course) on my E-smith box (using
the login would be fine...I just want to make it as easy as possible)
