[9fans] Machine-specific cpurc customisation?

[Adrian Tritschler <ajft@ajft.org>]

I was looking at the way I've set up my *enormous* (two PC) plan9 
network and thinking about adding changes to /rc/bin/cpurc. Since termrc 
includes termrc.local (if it exists), should cpurc include cpurc.local?

This would make it possible to have things like:

/rc/bin/cpurc

|...
|if (test -e /rc/bin/cpurc.local)
|	. /rc/bin/cpurc.local
|...

/rc/bin/cpurc.local

|...
|#global site-specific stuff, eg
|facedom=microsoft.con
|if (test -e /rc/bin/cpurc.$sysname)
|	. /rc/bin/cpurc.$sysname
|...

/rc/bin/cpurc.machine1

|# Machine-specific items for CPU/Auth machine "machine1"
|# for example
|auth/secstored >> /sys/log/secstored >[2=1] &
|#

The only problem I can see so far is that termrc.local is called before 
$sysname is available, but initialising the network in termrc.local 
should solve that.

If not, what other suggestions would people make on machine-specific 
configs, given that I'd like to be able to keep doing replica/pull from 
sources to stay up to date.

thanks,
	Adrian
