The commands and directories I already have set up. I had to go in
and change the directory names on startup since NT can have the system
and windows directory anywhere and with any name. That part is done.
Yes, the NT port already has a list of "interesting" programs like ARP,
etc. The same with directory names (once I fixed it up). The problem area
are files that should be used. There are no obvious files that are likely
candidates and in fixed locations. That's my problem right now.

See above.

The problem with Netscape and IE cache directories is
that there's no knowing where they are on disk. I, for example,
almost never take the defaults on these directories. The only way
to find them is to use the registry and that can depend on version
and a whole host of other issues. Yes those TODO messages need
to be done. I didn't know that Larry was the one who did that.

Got all that.

Thanks for your help. Yes it's for the NT port. Any files that
are in fixed locations that change frequently enough that you
can suggest?
Luckily this code only gets used for the security keys and
the dst code under the lib/dst directory and the macros weren't
enabled for it, so it was never an issue up to now when I tried
to get dnskeygen working. There's other code that needs to
get fixed to get this working properly.
