Hey guys,

I should point out that, in some markets, the LPIC certifications are
not only marketed as Linux certifications.  They market them as
general Unix certifications, as well.

IIRC, the suid-edness of scripts on Linux section of the objectives
was added when it did matter and it's been retained for the above
reason.

However, a quick search about the subject has lots of people
mentioning that other Unixes are following suit.  Can anyone verify
this on some of the popular Unixes?  I haven't had access to those
guys for years.

Regards,
