Maybe I'm missing something, but I would think it wouldn't be too hard to walk the directories in /n/sources/contrib and vac them. You could then store the olc vac hashes in a file, and everyday use them to copy back tou your venti server only the differences (vac -d). This could also be optimised by adding the -q option to vac.
Cheers

That's true indeed, I didn't think of that.  Hmm...
