Resource Folders/Files #9

Closed johnhof closed 11 years ago

This is more of a general thought. I think each new instance of a user should spawn its own resource folder/file. It should be associated with the username, and loaded if that user's file already exists. that way we can easily store server public keys that each user might need. The same thing could be done for each instance of a server, since that server will need to store its own public key for future user during authentication.

This may be unnecessary. Its just a thought. I dont know how else we're going to store public and private keys for authentication though. at the very least, there needs to be a file storing the fixed group server public key for file servers to access during authentication
