Good points all. Presotto had said a dictionary attack was possible if
the service ran on the cpu server and I can't see it.

Anyhow I've implemented it all, and perhaps will drop it all in the wiki
at some point.

One addition is a mod to secstore so it reads the nvram key rather than
prompting for one. This allows cpurc to load the cpu servers's factotum
with extra keys like the SSL ones.

Secstore is cool; it takes my mind off the awful VGA support.
