Well, that is a good idea. Perhaps some default scripts that do nothing by
default, but that read options from tinc.conf (remember, tincd ignores options
it doesn't know about itself) to enable certain things.

However, it would help if there were some *BSD, MacOS/X and Windows users who
could port these scripts or test them on their systems. Actually, it would help
in general if there were dedicated beta testers :). Any volunteers?

Also, it would be nice to hear what kinds of things people do with scripts in
tinc, maybe certain tricks could be put in these default scripts as well, or be
put on the wiki. 

I can also add a section to the manual with helpful examples.
