I am currently testing using rsync over ssh to transfer the files to a
central box.  The reason for this is not paranoia about the security of our
internal network but so that I can use a similar mechanism on our DMZ boxen
as on our internal servers.

The DMZ boxen will have to use an rsync server on the firewall management
system (the only system with more than single protocol access to the DMZ.)

The only slight glitch so far is the following message every now and again:

"Orca: file `/work/orca/var/orca/orcallator/griffin/percol-2001-10-31' was
current and now is not."

which I assume is due to the 4 times a day transfer updating the files
"unexpectedly" as far as Orca is concerned.
