Re: sfdeamon on target

Hello Franck,

We have uploaded the current version of the component that installs 
SmartFrog and starts the SF Daemon in remote nodes.

Please find the documentation and the descriptions at:
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/smartfrog/core/components/sfinstaller/

Thanks & Regards,
Ritu.
