I'm wondering how you manage to ssh into the machine and not have a home 
directory?

This brings up the question, who gets sudo? I'm inclined to think more 
sys admins the better..

I'm also thinking a we could start a wiki to document the system with. 
So when things are installed, or changes are made, we have a place to 
review them. What do you think? Any ideas for a wiki codebase?
