A machine running ERPCD, a remote authentication protocol (compare to
RADIUS or TACACS) used with Xylogics terminal servers IIRC.  Think it was
Xylogics.  They started with an X.

ERPCD is long-gone, I think, along with Xylogics (?) (bought by Bay, I
believe).  I'd take it out, but it isn't hurting anyone, and maybe someone
one day will need it.  :)

A better description of what you mean by `automated setup'.

Letting users setup their own accounts on the web?  See fs_signup/README.

Setting up remote machines when you change things in Freeside?  See
htdocs/docs/export.html and htdocs/docs/config.html
