Not at the moment.  There are two things that need to be done.

First, a new class of users in the PTS database would have to be created
that distinguishes a machine from a user entity.

Second, the token that is provided to the file server from the cache
manager will need to be a combined token that represents both the
machine and either anonymous or a particular user.

The ability to support these combined tokens is being added as part of
the rxgk security class that Your File System is building.  Simon
Wilkinson is the lead developer for that project.
