Perfect!  Thanks, that was just what I needed.

I tried the "simple example" but got this error when I tried it on my
home network:

C:\Documents and Settings\TB\testapp>cap search_libs
You are running Ruby 1.8.6, which has a bug in its threading
implementation.
You are liable to encounter deadlocks running Capistrano, unless you
install
the fastthread library, which is available as a gem:
   gem install fastthread
  * executing `search_libs'
  * executing "ls -al"
    servers: ["192.168.0.10"]
connection failed for: 192.168.0.10 (Errno::EBADF: Bad file descriptor
- connect
(2))

I understand the fastthread warning...I am not sure what the "Bad file
descriptor - connect
(2)" error is all about.  Here is the search_libs file I made:

task :search_libs, :hosts => "192.168.0.10" do
  run "ls -alxl /usr/lib | grep -i xml"
end

Thanks for any help you can send my way.
