Ah. Is any sort of encryption done for cluster-over-IP?

Ah, right, I'm forgetting that clustering sends a lot of data.
Further, most VMS clusters are built with machines in the same
datacenter. It's not generally a wide-area thing.
Mmmm, true. Clustering is generally used for practical purposes and not my crazy
experiments.
