Well, not really a direct answer to your question, but... have you looked at puppet[1]? It can be used to do this sort of thing very nicely. You can tell puppet to serve up different files to different clients based on their hostname. Something like this (taken from the puppet docs) would do almost exactly what you're after: class foo { file { "/path/to/my/file": source => [ "/nfs/files/file.$host", "/nfs/files/file" ] } } This would try first to use file.$host and if that wasn't found, would fall back to using file.
