Does anyone have a good way of backing up the registry automatically?  To
copy the /sys/registry tree, you must put the registry into service mode.  To
put the registry in service mode, you must run rgy_admin.  For rgy_admin to
work, you must be logged in (not just running the process as root).

So in other words, I can't do it with cron.

Any ideas?

Bill
