Re^2: GNU, security, and RMS

[Clyde W. Hoover]

Out here in the "real-world" where users cannot be trusted to behave themselves
and the Junior Hacker League lives, security is a MUST.  Having been a sys admin
in a variety of UNIX environments, I vote for UNIX having "high" security by
default with directions provided on how to lessen it if desired.

It is always easier (from a techincal viewpoint) to start restrictive and loosen
up.  The political issues of system security is another kettle of assorted
aquatic creatures...

Remember how many people were sure their SMTP connections were "secure" until
last November :-)
