Agree on that. If I understadn the Wiki you take the USB disk with user
files in clear text and carry it over to the server?
Wouldn't it be easier to setup a temporary server at (or close to) the
client machine, and then copy the storage driectory that bbstored
created (through the use of USB disk or whatnot)?
