Thanks to one and all for the words of advice. As many of you may have
noticed,
I posted this to both the HPUX Admin list and the Sun-managers list.
Both HP and
Sun have products that will do what I need, apparently. I'm going to look
into HP's
IgniteUX and Sun's Jumpstart. Those were the overwhelming favorites in
the many
replies I recieved......
Thanks,
