This reminds me of a solution I once saw.
Put some info into a fifo (named pipe), so only one receiver can read
it. After that the fifo is empty.

What about having a daemon on the FAI server which serves some secrect
using:
echo secrect | nc -p 12345 -l

So only one FAI client can read the secrect from port 12345 once.
This may help a little bit.
