Well, given what has happened in the audit so far, it appears to be more
of a case of "make sure John hasn't done anything too stupid like
leaving telnet running" rather than "lock him down". We will see. The
auditor has not been to my cubical yet for an actual inspection.

I'm considering implementing SELinux for truly paranoid protection. I'm
a RACF security admin as well as a z/OS sysprog. Yes, I __own__ the z/OS
system.
