What we want to achieve is that only certain users can deploy into the 
SF daemons we are running on several machines. If I understand correctly 
to achieve this a user who wants to deploy when security is enabled has 
to do:

- have the key
- create the description (a ascii .sf file)
- put the description in a jar
- sign the jar
- deploy

Am i right with this ? If yes, is there a sfStart script that does this 
in a transparent way ? I mean the user still types "sfStart host name 
description.sf" but behind the scenes the jar generation and signing 
takes place.

Thanks,
Andreas
