[AG-TECH] AG on Debian

[Eric Olson]

Hi Richard,
Vic and rat are included in the individual service packages.  Once they 
are used, they are unpacked into ${HOME}/.AccessGrid/local_services.
The compressed services are usually named similar to 
VideoConsumerService.zip, and on my fedora install they are in 
/etc/AccessGrid/NodeServices (not sure if it's the same place on debian).
