Thu May 28 14:44:11 AEST 2015


Add a simple script to gather up useful information in the unlikely
event a user runs into trouble.

Usage:
pb-sos [-v] [-f file] [-d user at host:/path]

Options
 -v		verbose output
 -f file	Supply filename for tar archive (default pb-sos.tar)
 -d host	Supply user, hostname, and path to transfer archive to a
		remote host
