Bug Description

A solution to the various ways of registering multiple workstations per server.

Profiles don't work if you aren't using the user chrome directory.
Multiple DNS entries can be problematic to maintain.
Changing the case of one letter of the server name is prone to confusion, and doesn't work with IPs.

The branch below allows you to specify a server as
host.example.com
or
host.example.com/identifier

Each /identifier gets its own workstation registration. I would personally recommend /shortname for each workstation you want to register, but /1, /2, /3 can work too.

You need only add the remote once, regardless of how many branches you wish to look at.
To add this repo as working:
 Read-only (git protocol):
  git remote add working git://git.evergreen-ils.org/working/Evergreen
 Read-write (ssh protocol):
  git remote add working <email address hidden>:working/Evergreen

Once you have the remote added you can check out this branch:
git co -b multi-workstation working/user/tsbere/multi-workstation
